    Don't overdo it Pippi, it sounds like you're a bit overwhelmed!

    Just finishing off some work here and then my target for today is to try and get to bed before half past one in the morning!

    Swit-swoo Pippi
    Phew, I'm tired just thinking about running Cheery
    Yay to yummy recipe from Cheri :)

    Gulp - Checked my main bank account and have moved in the bare minimum to ensure all the direct debits come out without taking me into overdraft, and am going to run another account for the pittance that's left. Basically if my ex "forgets" to pay maintenance as he occasionally does, we're scuppered....To make sure I don't do anything too silly (as is often my way), I've taken out the majority of bank/credit cards from my purse, so fingers crossed!

    Thank goodness I have mother's day presents all ready to wrap for my trip up on Sunday to pick up DD and celebrate the wondrousness of being a daughter and mummy. Just spends for tonight's big night out with the girls needed, eeek!

    Working from home today, sadly alone as OH (ooooh, first time I've called him that, lol) is still proper poorly and I need him better for our night out tomorrow, so selflessly, I've told him to stay at home - rather than come and make me feel ill, I'm not all heart, but might try and pop over for a bit this afternoon:)

    Woo hoo, just got a new credit card (yup, I know.....) through, it's a visa so I can now apply for Olympics tickets for me and DD, hoorah!

    hi all
    i've had a half day at work but in my defence it did involve a round trip of almost 100 miles just for one meeting!
    when i planned it i initially thought Mr LT would be at home as well but got confused with his time table and he's at work :( He's not working this weekend yay! so i'm trying to push for us to be out and doing something rather than him sleeping half the day away and us doing nowt. Definitely hoping we'll get some quality time at the allotment.

    checked all the bank accounts and they're ticking along ok, got £16 pending from Quidco (about time!) i know they now do two payments a month but i'm not sure when the next one is due.
