:j:j:j Thank you for stopping by everyone :j:j:j I still feel like this even though the celebratory chinese cost £42 :eek::eek::eek: was not impressed with that :cool:!

Yesterday morning was spent stocking the freezer with meat, we found a new butchers that we hadn't used yet and very local to ds1 new school so we spent £115 buying all the meat for the month (let's hope it lasts now :cool:) Then we went to the co-op to buy fish & herbs as a1di doesn't sell the ones we like.

After spending the afternoon lazing about at the river we decided to get a late afternoon walk in. 10 minutes in and Duke finds a blo0dy wasps nest! I got stung twice, ds2 once, duke at least 5 times what an awful end to a lovely day!!! After rushing back to the car and taking some anti-histamines (we gave the dog half too!) we went home for the extortionately priced chinese :rotfl: walks along picturesque sussex rivers could only ever end like that for ME :eek::rotfl:. So today is being spent indoors (and garden weather permitting) chilling out I'm still feeling overly delicate anyway especially now I have a rather itchy sting on my buttock :rotfl:

I hope everyone is ok......2 days left to the new school term (and counting )!!

I'm debating starting a new diary, for my new chapter :T oh and on the DH job front I think I may have talked him into staying until at least Christmas without handing notice in ...when he went to do it last week the system was down so his snr's wouldn't allow him to do it (:T:T:beer: ) and as he's away for 2 weeks from tomorrow he will only have 2 weeks in September to do it in which case I need to work on him then too, but all of October, November & most of December he's away so he won't get much chance to actually do it! I also had a friend over the other night and she tried to talk him out of it saying her hubby was the same when he was dh's rank and that he should hold out for his promotion next year as it will get better. Not sure he was listening but nice someone else thought the same as me........she even went as far as telling him to stay in until he had his half pension :rotfl: that's another 5 years as he joined late :rotfl:not sure that went down well at all :rotfl:!! Would tie in nicely with my 5 year plan though haha :cool:

:rotfl: I was dressed I promise! I was saving Duke who'd obviously stuck his nose in the nest :eek: and I had on a maxi dress............several wasps decided to get up there :eek: and 2 stung me before I managed to shoo them all out! owww! DS2 only had a towel on (little hooded one) and one stung him on his arm after getting inside the towel. Little beasts they are I hate wasps !

I'm having a think on a name for a new diary, does anyone have any helpful suggestions I can't think of any good ones...........(i'm so uncreative, bah!) so far have

* Debt-Free-Woohoo - DFW's next chapter; the one after debt!
* From a 'debt-free wannabe' to a 'I have savings-wannabe'
* Chapter 3
(ok I've run out of ideas now can you tell :rotfl:)
