    I finish exams end of April so after that I can think about living a bit more again:D.

    Just been to see mortgage adviser so fingers crossed for me folks...

    (oh and found out earlier LM peruses MSE from time to time so best watch what I say in case he finds me ;))

    Must dash as I've got to be ready to go out by 7:30 and have no outfit planned and haven't even had a shower yet...

    Spendy week this week, I shall do better! Have mortgage AIP for move with LM so need to save hard from now on.

    We did have a nice lunch out yesterday though and a walk in the sun so was a nice change as I seem to be working every child-free weekend from now til July - money nice but doesn't give us much free time together.

    In non-MSE news I lost 5 lb! Only 10 to go now:D

    Hope you get some decent time together soon.

    Hmmm. Child free weekends. I remember those. They were a welcome break. I don't get them any more. Enjoy yours whenever you get one when you don't have to work.
