I'm drowning under real life workload and family stuff. Still lurking about but not posting much - not updated my diary in a while either.
Glad to hear you're on the mend thoughNinja Saving Turtle0 -

Nice to "hear" from you xx
Hope all is okay x0 -
*sigh* well the weekend slipped away from me .... wasn't too well (spent all day Sat feeling really sick - still having a few problems with my liver function and then was sick all night ..... felt like a wet dishcloth on Sunday)
Managed to survive Mon & Tues at work *wipes brow* and have had a pretty lazy day today (1st day of hols)
Did take the car to get the winter tyres changes back to summer ones (should've done this a couple of weeks ago but just didn't get around to it!) and then a walk on the beach with Maisie this afternoon.
It's our anniversary ..... a year today she arrivedhonestly I can't believe how quickly the time's gone!:eek:
Bit of drama on the beach as there were loads of police around:eek: a WWII unexploded device had been found! Seems to be a few of them just now - wonder what's disturbing them!
That's it for now - I will be back with monthly figures update at some point tomorrow as pots transfers done:T but still to move the money back to the c/card so not real figures as yet IYKWIM
Mum coming for a visit tomorrow ....... looking forward to seeing her but the house is a tipreally struggling to find the energy to do that as well as work / look after animals just now .... it will be tidied/cleaned well while I'm off (will have more energy as not working hopefully) but unfortunately not before she's here :eek:
Hope everyone is OK .....will catch up on a few diaries over the next couple of days.Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

Well, I've made it on here 2 days in a roll so that's an improvement:rotfl:
Had a mixed day with DM - lovely walk on the beach ...... but I did get a bit of a rude comment about the state of the house which p'd me off loadsI'd told her that it was a mess before she came & she said that was fine & understood why ... so I really didn't need a snipey comment about it *sigh*
Signed up to do a collection for the S*S*P*C*A at the weekend - it's in a Mr T store - think I'll only manage a couple of hours but every little bit helps as they say:) hope I get some generous people.
