  • Well done on doing so much DNMs and am so pleased for you with good news about DD. It's a good job we don't know what lies ahead of us when we first have them isn't it - so much joy but so much worry too. Think you are wise to take it slowly, I hope it all goes well. x
    Getting there...slowly! :D

    GC : must do better
    NSD: very rare

    No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.

    very happy with my weekend efforts, almost done everything I wanted to and had a lovely time at the party.

    Really big news - my dd has asked to move back in with us :T we're going to take it slowly (the old timers will know how difficult our relationship was a couple of years ago) we've agreed she will stay with us 3 or 4 nights a week and then if things continue to go well then we'll look to her moving in full time. Am so happy x

    Aww that's fabulous news! Really happy for you & hope it all goes well x

    Hello everyone,

    Been busy as a bee rearranging bits of the house & doing a bit of cleaning today, I'm hoping it will make things easier to organise rather than equalling more clutter! Let's see how it goes...

    Today I have/will:-

    • [STRIKE]Use freebie deodorant[/STRIKE]
    • Charge phone via pc
    • [STRIKE]Food from stores[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Dinner from meal plan[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Check for surveys[/STRIKE]

    • [STRIKE]Pick up cheapo furniture from friend[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Work on some wedding related stuff[/STRIKE] Trying to figure out where to go for a honeymoon without busting the budget...Cancun or Miami?! Hawaii & Kenya are way out of the budget it would seem unfortunately :(
    • Hopefully get some stuff ready for listing on ebay as it is a FREE LISTING WEEKEND
    • [STRIKE]Washing on eco setting[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Hang up to dry[/STRIKE]
    Have a great, MSE day everyone x
