It's essay week and the kids are all off now so not much flying here. Hubby has an appointment and job centre today and I'm hoping he will be back in time for kids swimming lessons. Will catch up with washing today and change 2 beds I think and have my tesco shop coming this morning. Have only ordered what we really need to save money and have ordered some value products to try too, the shop is around £20 less than I would normally spend and that was just cutting out lots of junk and expensive yogurts etc. we go away on the 5th and I'm trying to spend as little as possible before then and do a big shop when we get back.Have a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T0

Morning All
Didn't do much flying yesterday as I was doing the planning for my Beaver sleepover tomorrow - I need to do the shopping today. I did buy DS a new mattress though and hoover all his bed before I put on.
WM just finished so I'll stick that on the line then put DS's bedding in the WM. Kids are at my mum's today so I want to try and get quite a bit done but still have some chill time as this may be my only kid free time all holiday.
Have a good day all
Hugs

morning all
had to switch puter off yesterday has we had the most terrific lightning storm directly overhead so i busied myself reading a book doing some stitching and a bit of S&Sing.
i hope all are well hugs good wishes and positive vibes where needed.
LW if they are clothes you love will there not be high days holidays and days MrLW works later or things you will ear in evenings. i can hear in your posts they are outfits you love so why upset yourself further. unless its the frustration of having them but being unable to wear them thats upsetting you.
Walli sounds like you are in one of those harder you work and more you do the moer is expected situations, sorry dont have an answer but i know how you feel.
hugs to the poorlies and i hope relief comes soon.
hope those with upcoming holidays have good weather and a great time
