    Hi Mummy

    Thanks, no we're not going over half term - way too expensive, the prices double or more.
    The flylady list is on the old style money saving board, I never post but just copy the previous weeks list into excel, print it off and work my way through it xx

    Good Morning

    I cant believe its been so long since I've posted. All is good in Choo world though but I'm going to make this my last diary entry. I've come along way since my first diary and all I seem to post on here is boring drivel so I'll free up some space for someone else to use.

    I'm still going to be popping into everyones diaries, apologies for not doing so over the last couple of weeks, lots going on as per usual.

    Thank you to everyone who has supported me xxx

    Hello everyone

    Oh dear I didn't think anyone would miss me, maybe I'll update weekly/fortnightly.

    So anyway todays drivel

    DH is banging on about suits and shirts again, despite everything else that I have mulling round in my head - men! On top of that its his 40th soon so thats not going to be a cheap affair, we both missed out on celebrating our 30ths due to small toddler and baby activities so it seems a shame to miss out on celebrating the big 4 0. I cant quite believe he's almost reached that age, I still think of us as been in our 20's.


    M&S have got a mid season sale on and I managed to get DD a lovely jumper dress for £5, she just needs some chunky tights to go with it now.

    The list for today
    • Work hard
    • Try and do a flylady task
    • Shepherds pie is prepped and oven timer set for when we get home from after school activity, veg is all ready so dinner shouldn't take too long (DD moaned the other week as she didn't get served her dinner at the usual time - cheeky little madam!) :rotfl:
    • Do some work for a client
    • Look through grocery receipts and make sure that I haven't overspent for the last 2 weeks
    • Meal plan and shopping list
    Back to the bank reconciliations :( The boss spends money as though its going out of fashion, I wish I had a bank account that I could use so willy nilly!
  • Of course we would miss you choo, glad you are still going to post weekly, i have to admit i find it really difficult to post everyday and sometimes think that surely no one wants to read the drivel i write about.
