Your soing brilliantly,hows work going re you full time or p/t. it take a couple of months to get back in the swing of things, xx

And once again a month has passed! I really need a slap on the wrist!

Summer holidays are here so time to get organised and spend time with Sadie pops. She's desperate to walk and is very demanding of time and attention as you hold her hands and strut around the house!

Will update properly later in the week. x

mum2one

Glad your ok, you take care, summer holidays think they should rename it wet weather holidays!! xx

loumac

Summer holiday? Rainy holidays ... tiring holidays ... Going too quick holidays.

Bit of time so have been blitzing house as much as possible! Garage and loft have been done so far. Shame we're in the middle of that 'make more mess before you're tidy' stage!

Had a day off today though and went to the sea life centre. Was hot, busy, tiring but Sadie loved it!

End of the day was spoilt slightly by locking ourselves out (don't ask!).

Need to stop spending money though! xx

Well summer holidays are nearly over and as usual it's raining so it's a day in for Sadie and I.

Probably a good idea though as this weekend i'm off to Cardiff on a hen weekend and am dreading how much it's going to cost me. The weekend is paid for but that was £175, t shirt was £13 and now I need to think about meals out on the Friday and Saturday as well as outfits - hopefully I won't need to spend any more money there.

Next weekend is also a hen do so really stretched this month. I would normally buy new clothes for the new school year but not sure I can afford it this month.

Why is here the only place I can ever rant about how worried I am about money. OH just doesn't get it and it seems none of my friends are in the same boat.

mum2one

I know exactly what you mean about ranting about money, - thou bet a penny to a pound half the others are in doo-doo but don't want to admit it!

Your doing brillaintly, hope u have fun at the weekend xx

loumac

Well it's that time of the month again ... Payday has come and gone ... spreadsheet is updated and I'm planning once again how to get through the next month. Which of course brings me to MSE!

It's been yet another busy month over here. Back to school came with all the usual stresses, made worse by finding out whilst on my first training day back that my mum had had a massive stroke. At only 52 this was really unexpected news and her care and comfort has taken over everything really. She's still in hospital but in attempting to support my step dad I've been over there 4 or 5 times a week. Couple this with being mum, teacher, wife I AM SHATTERED!

Looking forward to a day home tomorrow, even if it consists of school work and housework.

Hope everyone who checks in is well.
Much MSE love. xx

Oh heck, really hope mum goes on ok, really frightening, and hope shes getting good care and attention,
