Thanks chocaddict.

Well this is my first night of chilling and relaxing on my own (well apart from Roo in bed) for 3 weeks. we have been tooing and froing to our home town to sort out OHs rental house, which keeps going wrong and is eating up money. I've been poorly, Roo's been poorly.

Moneywise, I still have my debts to clear, I really need to get them down. Christmas is starting to feel like a nightmare. I love it but what to get OH for Christmas is starting to bother me, not to mention the cost.

So I'm going to ebay some stuff on sunday, as I have a whole pile of stuff that has been sitting there a year!!!


There are going to be some big changes ahead, but shhhh I can't say too much yet but watch this space, I promise to share when I can.

hmmm was really looking forward to a night of nothingness, but now I'm feeling a little lonely hummmppphhh thats not good.

Morning missy glad to see you back and that you and roo are better.

I seriously need to sort through the hundreds of baby clothes bubs has and sort them into seasons all the summer stuff can be packed away til next year and the rest is going on eBay, been doing quite well selling bits with the odd few pounds here and there it all adds up.

Can't wait to hear your next set of plans

Hope you have a nice weekend, don't think of it as being lonely think of it as peace and quiet lol xxx

Hi Bells

I wrote I long post yesterday but I'd taken too long and it timed out grrrrrr!

Well here I am. I have to say feeling a little bit down, I'm not sure why, I keep wanting to surround myself with people so that I'm not on my own as the thought of going home to my big old dark house is really not very inviting.

Really lacking in motivation at the moment too. I have loads of cupcakes to make by fri/sat and I really can't be bothered to do it, to be honest the money I'm going to get from it after buying everything really isn't worth it. And there was me thinking that at some point in the near future I wanted to set up my own business making cakes. Honestly the logistics of trying to make these cakes and deliver them, whilst having roo is a nightmare, Im having to get 3 different people to look after him so that I can make them and deliver them. Its such hard work when OH isn't around. And this is just one lot of cakes, which is really a favour to a friend. I really don't know how I'd cope if I was doing this all the time. I just live too far away from family to have them looking after Roo every 2 minutes. Made me quite sad that my little business idea is a complete no go before its even started.

This weekend has been a complete wash out weather wise, really haven't been up to much. I hate the fact the clocks have changed and it is dark already. I think that I might have a touch of that SAD, I feel really unhappy at the moment

omg, making these cakes has turned into an absolute nightmare. Ive been trying to make icing bows. It has taken me three hours to make just over 30 and I haven't even nearly finished, literally half way. I am exhausted, standing up for all that while has really done my back in. Will have to do the rest tomorrow. Seriously is really not worth the money. I wont be doing it again!!!

Am now in bed eating some cold rice pudding, it's not very nice, I always remember the tesco value one being ok but I guess I've had few muller rices in between times and they are obviously yummy, and faaaar more expensive. The time difference has really thrown me, it feels like the middle of the night!! Still haven't managed to ebay anything and I really doubt that I will any time soon, these stupid cakes are going to take all sodding week!

Right just going to relax and read a few things on here and go sleepies

oh dear roos crying

Morning,

Well I feel a bit better this morning. I'm currently sitting here drinking tea and eating a reduced pain au chocolate, whilst Roo sleeps.

I've just put all the little bows in a box, with two casualties Only 40 more to do tonight

I've managed to hoover downstairs and have a little tidy up. The mess in this house has started to really get to me, it's not really the surface mess, as I can do that, all be it, in a manic hysterical "muuuust Cleeeannnn" sort of way every so often. But it's the clutter that's started to get me. There seems to be receipts and bits of paper in every possible nook, cranny, pot, drawer, you name it, there's stuff in it!. So I need to start tackling that. I'm completely maxed out with making the cakes this week, so my first chance to do anything else is Saturday night, OH comes home on Tuesday, so that gives me 3 evenings to try and start sorting things out. As I can't really do much whilst Roo is awake. I've had a sort through the pile of crap in the living room, but I've only got as far as putting it in piles and taking some of it out to recycling.

ok well I have finally finished the rest of the cake decorations I needed to do, another 3 hours later, seriously it is taking forever.

I'm really not feeling very well now either, I have a really sore throat, guaranteed I'll end up getting iller as the week goes on, just as I'm making my cakes

My friend has asked me if I can look after her baby for a couple of hours tomorrow. I really don't want to as I feel so rough, but I really feel like I should help. She's coming round by 9!!! so much for my lazy day trying to make myself better. I'm really hoping my friend doesn't stay after either, i've had enough of people at the moment, I just want a me and Roo day. I'm missing him and he's only in the next room, I'm such a saddo! But bless him he's so cute.

Had an awful thought.... the downstairs in my house is a complete tip, really going to have to rush around to make it tidy in time for my friend and her baby to pop round ho hum, no rest for the wicked.

I have been having some money thoughts, but will post those aother time, far too sleepy to do it now.

Nights, if anyones readying x

Hey lovely,

You seem a little down and stressed I hope you are feeling a bit better now. Perhaps you are not tip top after being so unwell?

How'd the cupcakes go in the end, all done?

Some news in choc land - we've decided to start trying for a baby choc!!! Well decided a while ago but I too have been ill so baby making action not really been on the agenda until last month. I'm excited but at same time realistic it can take time and don't want to get caught up in all - life has to carry on as well. Hmmm, easier said than done though. Anyway that's my little bit of news and even more reason to get on and clear the last bit of debt.

Look forward to another update soon, chin up lovely xxxxxxxx

Have had a bit of a day today! My friend dropped her son off at 8.30 this morning as she was desperate for a baby sitter whilst she nipped off for an appointment. She was far earlier than I thought, so I hadn't done my hair or makeup and roo was still in his jarmies. Her son, whom I've met only a handful of times, cried the whole time she was out, then when my friend finally came back, her son belted Roo around the head with a big train, and Roo now has a black eye!!!! Was so cross but obviiously couldn't show it as it was an accident. So me and Roo decided to get some fresh air and went for a walk and bumped into my other friend. who is gorgeous and a size 6 and has an immaculate house and always a very clean and well dressed baby, that definitely would NOT be in its Jarmies at 2 in the afternoon, She invited me in for a cuppa. Too late did I realise Roo was still in his Jarmies and I still had no make up on and I had the biggest holes in the soles of my tights!!! Felt like the absolute biggest scruff in the world. Honestly this friend is like super woman, she always (unintentionally) makes me feel like I'm a real slummy mummy. I really don't know how she does it.

Cake wise, well I have made the rest of the plaques for the tops of the cakes. Need to go shopping tomorrow to get the ingredients, bit worried theyre not going to be as nice as I want them to be.

Eeek just checked the bank and I have £12 in my account!!!! Going to have to put the ingredients on my credit card which I really don't want to do ;( but needs must.

Am really cross that the bank are charging me £7.50 a month for the use of my overdraft, I almost cleared it last month, but I couldn't live on no money and I had a parking ticket to pay and had to buy a new coat £20 from TK Maxx and I needed it rather than wanted it.

Money wise I really need to ebay, I have no idea how I'm going to afford Christmas presents , fortunately OH pays for everyone elses, but I need to get OH's from me and from Roo. After these cakes are finally made, I am going to ebay my little heart out at the weekend to see what money I can make. The money I make on the cakes will help. Basically by the end of the year, I would really like to have my OD, my CC and Christmas all paid for, courtesy of being a bit money savvy with buying presents, and actually selling things on ebay and not adding to the credit card, unless emergencies.

Me and OH really have to start reigning it in after christmas, if we actually do want to move. Although we do NEED a new car and a new pushchair not cheap things, but needs must

Right I have definitely rambled on enough for today, just watching sarah beany then going to go sleepies. Speak soon
