Reasons to be cheerful...

Made a phone call to boss to tell her I wouldn't be returning to part time job I had recently started as it triggered off an old back injury. Dreading return call from her but now looking forward to sitting in garden and doing my hanging baskets. Happy Easter.

Hmm...let me think...

• 2 lovely pleasant (mostly) well behaved children
• my lovely OH who works hard, is great company, is my best friend, a great Dad and has many other skills that can't be mentioned here on DFW!
• Three more days of bank holiday to go
• A further week off work after that
• The sun is shining
• We are substantially less in debt than this time last year
• There is an ever growing chink of light at the end of the debt free tunnel
• This site which has been a godsend, and eye opener, a bulb lighter and so much more...
• Chocolate

Because next week is my eldest's 8th birthday, and she thinks we're going out for the day when ACTUALLY we are going for a whole week (our first full week family holiday!) And because it is the 'Isle of Wight' they get to go on a ferry, and we can make like we're going abroad!

And on Monday I am finally doing a Boot Sale, so more money towards those debts (and a very useful clear out too!)

Well, I was feeling really miserable until I just read this post and now I feel really positive! So thanks to all of you who really cheered me up!

No reasons really for me. Sorry, I'm almost at the end of my 3 weeks leave, plus we are builing up to going away again......another summer down the pan!!

The sun is cracking the flags here. My washing's on the line. Two more lovely days off work to go, and the kids are off school for another week so the roads will be nice and quiet when I go back on Tuesday. Oh, and there's the prospect of a chocolate egg tomorrow .

:j It's lovely and sunny here too!

I'm spending the weekend decorating

:j I'm off work for another 3 days - how I miss the M1 in a morning!

I work through an agency, so don't get paid for Bank Holidays

:j There's still money in the bank

:j We go on holiday in May!

:j There's food in the cupboards, petrol in the car and a happy mechanic (he's been paid in advance for only the second time ever!) currently fixing my brakes and when I get my car back I swear I'll never drive DH's car again!

Happy Easter all
