    Can't believe another week has almost gone. I've been so busy at work trying to get everything done before I break up I've been too tired to update.

    Ankle was fine - it's still swollen in comparison to the normal one, not because of going over on it, just generally since the break. Every time I see someone I haven't seen for a while the first thing they say is "your ankle's still swollen".

    Last work get up tomorrow until holiday :):)

    Mr SA declared he's not looking forward to Ibiza he thinks he's too old. I reminded him I've no plans to go clubbing!!! Ok so we're going to San Antonio but it's the bay part. Sighs and shakes head!!!!

    Thanks folks. Mr SA now not looking forward to it because it will be too hot for him!!!!! Honestly I could throttle him.

    Bought a sundress from H&M today for the princely sum of £2.10 :)

    So pleased to have finally broken up from work - it was all systems go all day but I escaped eventually :)

    And breathe .....

    Hope you have a lovely holiday, hope MrSA snaps out of it soon and is happier once the stress of the travel is over.

    LOL Beanie :)

    Now I've hired him a mobility scooter for the week he feels better. Extortionate I think at €165 for the week, almost double what they charge in Lanzarote. Won't be able to go far without one though.

    Had shellac on fingers and toes today plus eyebrow wax and tint so all glam now for the party isle LOL.

    I always forget when we go on holiday, it's not just the cost of the holiday, it's all the extras that mount up. Don't begrudge it though, I just think back to this time 4 years ago ......

    Weather has been hit and miss here today, torrential rain/warm sunshine.

    Need to mention awful events in Barcelona and Cambrils :( And then Brucie :(

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend :)
