    Not bad at all thanks Len.... coming to the end of my week's annual leave, not looking forward to going back on Monday.... I;ve spent so much time on MSE this week, its gonna be hard to go back to diving in and out....
    How are things with u? Anymore news on the move down south yet?

    Sarah x
    Oh no, returning to work after leave is a nightmare aint it. Get past Monday and you'll be ok. I am moving down south sometime between May and Jul but don't exactly when yet. x

  • Do u get much notice? Or do u just get the call that says 'morning Len, ur off to Portsmouth next week, sort ur admin and get ur bags packed!'?

    Right this afternoon has gone a bit pear shaped..... put DS down for another sleep attempt at 1700 after giving him a bottle of milk, then laid down ion the bed with OH...... and we have only just woken up:eek:..... well DS and I have, OH is still asleep!
    Got most of my eBay pictures done, not uploaded yet tho, and got to write the descriptions out (I like mine to be roughly written on paper before I start)....

    And its bl00dy roasting in this house!

  • Been to Tesco today and spent £57 on 3 bottles of champagne:eek:
    But they were £10 off for each bottle, and it means I now have a weding presetn, and a birthday present and a Christmas present for Sil, so not all bad.
    All my eBay descriptions for the photos I've done are ready to type out, so will try to get some done tonight.... altho OH is off work tonight, so I'd rather spend a bit of time with him! They might have to wait until Monday or Tuesday now, which gives me time to take pictures of everything else and do the descriptions....

    Otherwise not much else going on today... off to my Dads for tea later, then back to cook OH's tea....

  • Right, no further along with the eBaying, so thats defo a job for tomorrow or Tues.... phone bill came in yasterday (didn't open it til today) and its £41 :eek: Thats from all the surfing on the web I did at the meet, trying to get a list of who was coming - that'll teach me, I won't be using that again!

    Just looking at the budgets, with the phone bill and the fact that I forgot to factor in a five week month for nursery fees:mad: I am going to be £76 short this month..... with only £100 to last two and a half weeks! F***ing great bit of planning there!!!! And I've had to pick up that extra £80 as OH is out of money already, due to slack month plus 1st month of proper debt repayment!I mean, we'll be ok, because I have all that Olympic Challenge money, but I wanted to save that to try and pay off the loan early!:mad: :mad: I am now gonna go through the rest of the year and make sure I know when they're coming..... Also, must chase the Childcare Vouchers info this week, it'll be two weeks ago tomorrow I called and haven't had anything yet! I know it can start til the beginning of the new financial year, but I wanna be clued up and ready to save money when it starts!
    Logged into OH's username and set him up with a sig - that man STILL hasn't signed in and poted, but I might just do one post for him...... I will get him on here tho!
    Sometimes I feel so positive, and sometimes this all just really hacks me off!!! Its not helping that I have to back to work tomorrow either!

  • Ok, this is OH's username and sig (he chose the username btw)....... Just gotta get him on here to post!!! He's gonna freak when he sees the sig - he asked me if I did it so it made him look like a @r$£..... I don't think so, its the truth! :D
  • Just transferred another £7.63 from Amazon....Olympic Challenge now up to 21% of total - Yay!

    OH has fallen asleep on the sofa, and I'm off to bed cuz I need to be up early for smelly work!
