amazing framed unicorn and amazing peppa pig cake!
sounds like happy days!
one small comment on kondo - i'm now at the point of automatically kondo'ing stuff when it comes through from laundry, and its making life so much easier and the thing of not having to rummage is so worthwhile.. everything sits up straight and you slot it out or in..all of mine and LL's stuff is done now and i was hard-selling the idea to my mum & anyone else who would listen last weekend lol- on a mission to be debt-free by the end of 2017 - :cool:

Lilty just caught up with your diary, looks like Jelly had a fantastic day yay for bike rides, Peppa Pig and Cake,
Managed to get back from Majorca with a six hour delay due to some french air strike, as much as I hated hanging around the airport I am glad it was on the way home and not on the way there... ah well back to reality.
Sounds you have kondo'd everything in site so what is the plan for the weekend now?....

Thanks for the cake lovewe rather enjoyed it. Funny he is the only man I know who will happily stand and do a *project* with you without complaint or drama. He reads instructions to build stuff and is so calm, but as you can see from up there is just as good at freehand try and try again stuff. Very weird personality for a man
Levi I have been auto piloting the kondo folding for Jelly for a couple of weeks now, and have been folding mine like it but not putting it upright, but now, it is all done. I love it and find the folding of the laundry therapeutic!! lol:o:o
laurasavon thanks!! And welcomenice to see you!!
hummingbird thanks hunwe all had a lovely birthday
and again today!!
Westie welcome back! Have been to Mallorca 3 times... Alcudia twice and Palma Nova once. Loved it but the last time I went wasn't great and was very expensive which rather put me off!! Sorry you had to hang around because of strikesdon't you get to claim compensation now though?
Right... still avoided YNAB..receipts are piled next to me. Phone is charged so I can use all the online banking apps. Him used my credit card to purchase an Aiii Phone today as his is finally dead. So he wanted the protection as it is a refurb A grade 5S. He sent me the money to Mr H so just need to set up a payment to MBeaner to pay it off as soon as it appears rather than waiting for the statement.
Have done a load of washing & just pegging it out onto airers. The weather is still balmy! Hand washed some totally coated in sudocrem jeans and t-shirt (least said soonest mended) and put one in the wash and the other into the washing basket ready to be done when I have enough darks again. So tomorrow then :rotfl: - have also made a huge vat of mediterranean tomato sauce and had some leftover meatballs and chorizo to finish off the packs, over pastalush! Cleaned the kitchen and done countless loads of pots... And done all of my ironing. So got a few weeks worth of work clothes if I wanted to be a total tramp
MIL & FIL finally arrived at nearly 5pm. Unimpressed Lilty. We kept Jelly waiting for cake all day long and she ended up eating cake instead of dinner and then her dinner once they had gone! BUT they brought some amazing presents. TONNES of play doh... I mean 8 big cartons and 16 little ones :rotfl: along with multiple sets of plastic tools and presses and cutters... She now has a sweetie making set, and a cupcake making set. Yes you heard me right.. play doh :rotfl: - had great fun with it while MIL was there. She also got puzzles, TONNES of clothes... she has been so very spoilt!
Tonight I am watching The Lion King with a hot chocolate. And talking to YNAB, I promise.. xxx

Should get something If I can be bothered to research it but I think it has to be over a certain number of hours delay first - will check it out, had a little snooze on the plane so my body clock is not only all over the place its probably withdrawing for all the booze I consumed while on All inclusive I swear I had a bottle of Malibu with my diet coke each night...I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Banking & Borrowing, and Reduce Debt & Boost Income boards.

Holy carp woman... there is an edit button for you to add in further thoughts :rotfl:
...and a bottle of malibu?!?!?! :eek:I dared to drink a can of Monster energy drink and a bit more of another one the other night. I paid hard, never mind adding in alcohol!! :eek: but then I am not really a drinker at all and obviously fizzy stuff does not agree with me!!
I came back to add the most hilarious moments of my day:
Jellytot would not open a present. When she finally did, it was a play doh cupcake maker. I immediately said, oh, that's super cool, that is for mummy!!! And she looked me straight in the eye and said. 'It's not yours!' :rotfl:
She got a kids guitar as I think I mentioned. She walked in, dressed in a cow print onesie this morning, with her bunches all hanging out, and did me a little song, (baa baa black sheep) twanging away on the guitar and dipping her head and knees like a little superstar :rotfl:
She also treated me to 'All baa baa bass, baa baa bass, no treble' and '5 little monkeys jumping on the bed' not to mention 'twinkle twinkle'. I have most videoed!! :smileyhea
But best of all... was when she started singing this:
"See Saw Margery Straw, Don't Forget to Stroke Him. Atishoo, atishoo we all fall down."
:rotfl:
followed by:
"round and round like a garden, all the fish in the world, they fell off and bumped their heads, mummy called the doctor and the doctor said, no more monkeys jumping on the bed"
I heart her very so.

I love playdough,
Me and O regularly make pizzas and sandwiches and cakes and pastries out of various colours, but all eventually ends up brown when he squishes it together, much to my disappointment!
The ice cream factory is awesome - [STRIKE]you'll[/STRIKE] Jelly will love it!
VERY impressive Peppa Pig cake by the way, I shall be placing my order!Mortgage @ 03/2019: £125,000, Now: £51,500
