    Thanks for your well wishes.... I had some night nurse and had a wonderful sleep. A nice lazy day is in order.

    Pavlovs - thanks for the tip re hotels.com - I shall most definitely check that one out.

    Tilly - yes, I'm so happy that the trip is postponed, I really don't like to leave them during school hols, I feel guilty enough as it is.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone!

    Good:
    Hoovered the house
    Did some washing
    Cleaned the kitchen
    Found the receipt to a broken hand mixer and returned it to Mr T
    Bagged some change up for DS1 - took it to Coinstar at Mr T
    Took soup from the freezer for dinner tonight
    Moved some money in to savings
    Could be getting a bonus in the next few weeks as the year ended well

    Bad:
    Used the money from the broken mixer and bagged up change for DS1 to purchase a couple of Skylander characters - he had some christmas money which I spent on magic beans so it was my way of reimbursing him. He put £2 towards it from his money box and I paid the remaining £3.
    Bought a 4 pack of Wispa bars for £1
    Bought a big bag of fruit pastilles for £1
    Bought a tear and share Cinnamon thing with the cream cheese icing on it - £3, brought it home and ate some of it with a nice coffee whilst chatting with DH about holidays
    Will probably book some flights in the next few weeks for a family holiday if the bonus is confirmed

    Your bad things aren't that bad.....my son is begging me for a takeaway this evening, so I am trying to work out the healthiest option from either pizza, chippy, Indian, Chinese, Bking or Maccy-ds:cool:
    February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
    MND - Let's go for 2020 'cos it's got a nice ring to it:D

    Takeaway, nom nom - my fave isn't on your list and that is Thai food - LOVE IT!!!!

    Think I'd give Bking and MCD's a swerve and perhaps chose Indian or Chinese.......

    Pizza is probably the worse....

    It's curry - Thai place is a wee bit further away (although not ordered yet, so may opt for Thai....)

    Enjoy the takeaway Natty, I'm sure whatever you chose will be lovely......

    Soup from freezer was yum, but very envious of your takeaway. I'll have a wispy bar later to compensate.

    Off for a family game of "dragon chase" now......

    Dragon chase ended quickly and abruptly when ds2 spilt a bowl of cocoa pops over himself and the kitchen floor......

    Not too sure what dragon chase is....but oh dear for coco pops fatality;)

    The curry was okay, but my resolve not to further snack on chocolate this evening has been tough going. I had a cup of caramel coffee to take the edge of and it seems to have worked:T
