    Job satisfaction day today and the start of our new budget.

    Been to see a house, very nice but left me a bit cold, like the weather.

    Hope everyone is well. xxx

    Job satisfaction day - wow! Pleased all going well.
    Any reason for a new budget?

    Job satisfaction day = payday!

    The new budget is because I realised a lot of money was running away each month with notalot to show for it. See how it goes.

    Woke up with a temp and aching limbs. Thought there was no wayI would make it to trailer ponyplops to the next county for area team showjumping.
    Necked a couple of paracetamol though and pleased we did it. Came home and slept two hours!

    Ponyplops jumped the first two, refused at a filler that resembled the test card and then was disqualified (3rd refusal)

    Only one of the team of three got round all the jumps but it was the first time for all of them so they will do better next time.

    Well all three girls cried at one point, but they got over it. All sensitive and thoughtful girls but brave as lions!

    At least the plops didn't buck off her rider and try to kick her...

    I do feel a lot better this morning.

    Doing the prayers at Church with two smallest while DH and DD1 help with a triathlon. Also have to do more online moderating stuff today.

    Mission exhaust-the-labrador was a success.
