Hello
Well told the whole family yesterday about impending baby number 2. Had a few I knew its, which always makes me laugh as they obviously didn't! Had a bit of a catch up day today. Have finished my third and final book for this essay which is great and I can enjoy our few days away as we're going away for a few days, staying in a lodge in a foresty type place, should be nice as they do all sorts of Christmas things and were taking roo to see Santa for the first time
so if I'm quiet for a few days forgive me, but I'll be back on Friday. Still hsven't packed, packing for roo is always a nightmare. 0 -
Well thought I'd check in, me and OH are having a lovely relaxing time in our little forest get away. Roos enjoying himself too. We went swimming and it's the first time he's been, he loved it
OH is soundo beside me on the sofa, think it might have something to do with all the beer he's drunk. Funny how a woman's work is never done, I didn't sit down until 8 o'clock, as roo wouldn't go to sleep
OH fell asleep on the sofa! Anyway...... Nevermind, gives me chance to have a good old look at the budget and how to save money. Ooops OH is awake write more later!! 0 -

Hi missy, Just been having a catch up and wanted to send a belated HUUUUGGGEEEE CONGRATUALTIONS!!! So chuffed for you.
Good luck with all the course stuff (by the time I get round to checking in again you'll be graduating!
).
As a teacher I can definitely say it's worth the hard work in training. Any advice I can give just shout up and ask. xxWandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...0 -
Hello
Well were back from our little break, god it was amazing, I wanted to stay. I loved the villa place we stayed, very small but open plan so perfect. It was so nice to spend some time with OH without having to rush off to do the washing or something or other. Roo was a bit poorly towards teh end though, I think it was his ears he gets infections quite often and it makes him sick poor thing.
OH went away today and left me with a mountain of mess to try and sort out. Have just managed to sort out the kitchen more or less, but the rest of the house is a mess, MIL is coming over tomorrow for the day too as I'm off to observe a friend teach all day to see if I'd prefer to teach english or food tech to help with my confusion. Although I'm really nervous about it, a few things are bothering me, whether Roo will be good as hes still not 100%, what I'm going to wear as I've got a bit of a tum already, how I'm going to get ready in time to leave at 8am. I'm going to have to try and get up at 6. I'm shattered and could really do with going to bed but I;ve got an assignment due on thursday night, which I haven't even started!! Gosh everything just feels a bit much at the moment.
Thanks for the well wishes loumac, I may well take you up on your offer of advice.0 -
I'm going to spend the rest of this week writing my assignment, then I've got a tutorial on saturday. So frosm Sunday onwards I am going to be sorting the house out, the whole kitchen needs going through, all the cupboards need hoiking out and sorting, and I need to do an inventory. I desperately need to run down the freezer in preparation for Christmas. I'm actually really looking forward to having a good clean through, I started a month ago and did some of the upstairs, I would just love to have it all spick and span and uncluttered for christmas.
On a different note has anyone got ideas of what I could ask for for christmas, as I am really struggling to think of things and OH's family all want a list. I've had books in the past but I've got a library card now and would rather wander into the city and get a book from there. So I'm a bit stuck, they dont really like giving vouchers or money for christmas either so it has to be a physical present...... any thoughts?0 -
ok ive been up since six, unfortunately so has Roo, so its been a little bit tricky getting myself ready. I know people do this every day and my hat goes off to them, loumac you are amazing do this most days!
I hope I look smart enough, do you think I should take an apple for the teacher
Will update you later on how I get on x0 -
Good luck! Hope the visit helps you to work out what you want to do x0

thanks choc,
it went ok thanks but boy am I tired, and I'd forgotten how naughty teenagers can be. But some of the lessons were really fun. I was in a practical food tech class, which I really enjoyed but goodness it was full on. some of the english classes were really fun too with learning made fun by games.... I don't know if I am any closer to making a decision or not. I think I am going to have to go back and spend some more time.
Well Roo had a fun filled day with MIL and is now so tired out he is asleep!! Although he's started to be a bit funny at lunch time and wont eat his sandwiches, he just throws them on the floor. I don't know why, I don't know if he's not that hungry or if he is just bored with bread. Any ideas on what else to give him. He has a cooked dinner in the evening so I am a bit loathe to cook him something at lunch time too.
I just had a huge dinner of cheese and potatoe pie and beans, but I think I have overloaded on the carbs as my stomach hurts! Well I guess I had really better get on with my assignment. I have to get it in by Thursday and I haven't even started to write it yet!!!0
