    I've sorted OH's parents out, so I guess I am officially finished now (except for the food side of things). I got them a £15 gift card each in the end, but I got £2 off them with a voucher I had.

    Just doing my meds and then going to bed. I think we're leaving early tomorrow to go to OH's parents.

    Up early to go to OH's parents. Needed to make sure I had enough time to do my meds and nebuliser first.

    I woke up around 3.30am and couldn't get back to sleep until around 5am. Shattered now :(. At least I can have a lie-in tomorrow.

    Hi Steph.

    I don't know why I've been waking up. I haven't been worrying about anything in particular. Hopefully I'll catch up on my sleep over Christmas.

    Have a good weekend :)

    Just posting quickly before I go to sleep.

    We came back from OH's parents early evening and I have been working since. I was determined to get up to £100 on the questions and I've done it.

    So, 10 days of the year left - I'm going to push myself to earn £400 in those 10 days. I KNOW it can be done!! :j

    Night night.

    (BTW, OH's parents paid for the meal today :eek:).

    Morning

    I was up early again this morning (7am), but only because of the weather. We had thunder and lightening.

    I'm about to get ready to go to my mum's for Sunday lunch, but I have been working this morning and have already earned £20 of my £400. I'm going to aim for another £20 this afternoon.

    I've also done all my meds and nebuliser. I really need to start wrapping presents tonight too.

    Forgot to mention that I received a £15 Amazon voucher yesterday too. Might even treat myself to something with that.

    :rotfl: Buffy and Lou. I was just as shocked as you were!! They must be feeling festive. We took full advantage and had 3 courses ;)

    I've earned £40 today, so only £360 to go. Christmas Day and Boxing Day will be the problem, but I'm determined to get there!!

    Off to wrap some presents, do my meds and then off to bed.

    Night night

    Morning :)

    I actually slept right through until 7.30am. Must have needed the sleep.

    I've got so much to do over the next couple of days. Kind of wishing I hadn't offered to host Christmas Day now.

    Just doing my meds and then we've got to drop OH's car off so it can have something done to it. I need to do another 100 questions in there somewhere too, not to mention finish wrapping presents, get food shopping and clean the house.

    Busy, busy, busy....
