I had a lovely day today. Picked DGD2 up and went into town. She wanted to go for 'coffee', funny little girl that she is. I'd packed a lunch and drink for her and a sandwich for OH and me, so we just paid for coffee and then sat in the sun eating, drinking and chatting.
She then marched around town in front of me and OH, leading the way, without going too far in front. She really is a delight to be around and makes everyone that passes her smile because she just looks and is such a happy little thing.
Then back to 'Granny's' house to play until school hometime. I suggested she stay with OH whilst I nipped to the school, not for one minute believing it would happen, but it did. She was quite content to stay with him and more surprisingly didn't gripe the whole hour I was gone. He was so pleased
They only stayed for a couple of hours more as OH was working tonight but I had a lovely time in the garden with my girlies and an extra special smile from the little man when I took them home.
off to bed soon as I'm pretty tired but its been a lovely day and nsd #7 too

This is just a quick post as I'm off to bed but I'm so cross I just have to post to vent. Our WM has been playing up for a while, usually when OH has loaded it. Well today it's been on with the same load in it for most of the day. I've turned it off, OH has turned it back on, I've turned it off, OH has turned it back on, I've turned it off, unloaded the far too big load, only for OH to put it all back in and yes you've guessed it, turned it back on. Now he's gone to bed, whilst I'm sitting here trying to get it to spin dry half the bl00dy load. He's not working tomorrow, I am
Argh, bl00dy argh
OK, now that's off my chest, today has been nsd #8, tomorrow won't be as I'm treating myself to coffee

WM is finally empty, not sure if OHs work clothes are as clean as normal and his white pants are a very unfetching grey, (colour catcher sheets don't work if things are stewing for 2 days), but at least he has clothes for work :eek:
Wrote to Mr T today, telling them that we cannot afford to pay them any extra. Discovered yesterday that one of our debts is still showing as up to date and not defaulted, despite the fact that we have breached the normal payment terms and have asked them to stop charging interest. Oh well, I'm not going to complain about that.
I'm on antibiotics again for yet another UTI, making me feel extremely run down and tired.
today was not a nsd as I treated myself to lunch for £5.Finally had my sh3ll petrol voucher, so have got £20 to put in car for trip with DM next weekend. Really looking forward to the week off work.
OH bought me chocolate and cans of peps1 m^x today, must be feeling guilty about yesterday's antics.
So glad its Friday tomorrow, I'm currently living for my weekends
