  • My last day as a 39yr old:o:o
    Have been to T's and spent £45 - a bit more than planned but had to get eldest some toiletries, so spent £4.50 there, also £3.50 on toilet rolls as they were on offer. Plus I had to buy bits and bobs for their food for tomorrow.
    Tomorrow I'm meeting my mum, step dad, sis and her family for lunch. My mum's buying mine so it will be an NSD:beer: Sunday will probably cost me about £25, and I need to buy cakes for work on Monday - going to go to Asda and buy trays of donuts I think:D So I'll have money left over this week - not bad. Mind you I'll need it for next weekend - shopping with my lovely friend, drinks out at night.

    I'm going to start a new diary in the next few days - new decade, new diary eh?:rotfl: So, if anyone has any clever ideas for a title that'd be good. I shall post the link here so I won't lose any of you:D:D
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

  • Aaaaaaah DNMS you have made me smile - thank you for the birthday wishes, the very fancy cake and the much needed coffee:beer:

    Yes the girlies got off fine - what an early one though, 5.45 on a Saturday - and not just any Saturday, a BIRTHDAY Saturday:rotfl: I tried going back to bed but I have to try and get dd2 some One D tickets when they go on sale at 9...so may as well stay up now:D

    I love your diary title chick - I shall be thinking along those lines and maybe start it tomorrow evening:)

    Coffee...and lots of it now;) Much as I enjoyed my chinese last night I'm not sure my tum did:o:o I didn't sleep well either with worrying that girls have remembered everything, then worrying about not sleeping haha...so that doesnt help my tum, but mostly it must be the sweet and sour, ooops;)

    Yep, pass one here - I need all the caffeine i can get today;)

    Well done on the not smoking - you can do it:) I smoked when younger and gave up when pregnant with dd1...as soon as I found out I was pregnant I couldn't smoke and the taste felt yuk. I started again when ex and I split up - then gave up when I had my LBM in 2008...just couldn't part with the money any more. I do miss it sometimes...how crazy:o

    I've opened some fab pressies from my bestie, who's coming to play next weekend:rotfl: I'm having the girls' pressies later on, when we have more time. My lovely little dd2 decorated the lounge at midnight last night - her dad helped her blow up balloons (and dd1 was seen to blow 1 up;)). He also gave me £20 towards tomorrow's lunch and they got a big fat chocolate cake. He's done a good job, I'm pleasantly surprised:D

    that's nice for you that he's sorting his act out, it was rough there for a while last year.

    You're girls seem lovely you should be so proud. Enjoy it lovely they grow up so quickly!

    Hope that coffee's not too strong for you :p
