Okay, so DH's birthday is nearly sorted out now - and it's pretty amazing (well, for a skint person anyway).
Ha-ha, my resolution was just to stop telling the kids we're skint, that doesn't inlcude you guys!
DD3 has decided she wants highlights in her hair - that cost £65 - and they have to be done at a trendy salon. Help me out of this one without entering the lack of money words territory. I've already tried the "ruin your hair" but she doesn't get this as all her friends have highlights already. Blimey, and there was me thinking I could use the pudding bowl just one more time!
Have been good again with the eating, but only because I'm scared of putting any more weight on - wow 5lb was pretty scary already!0 -

DH loved his birthday present.
Was working from home today, so was able to do quite a lot of paperworky things (which made me feel as though I'd got on top of work a bit more) plus make a nice dinner for DH in between!0 -

Had a nice work day again, although a bit slow.
Zumba was good, although felt so tired throughout. Ended up coming home and going to bed for 9 (and falling asleep!) so must have needed it.
Please let this be the end of the munchies!0 -
