Well, got Monday morning out of the way!!!! But just ate a double size portion of school sponge and custard :eek: So now want to sleep!
This month is turning out expensive again :eek: DS now needs £20 for a new scouts shirt and £15 for his camping trip at the weekend. Ordered my sis a Groupon neclace for £15 for her birthday in July (about £60 orginally).
Just going to have to knuckle down to some scarce days towards pay day again.....
Spent too much in ASDA (nightmare busy on Sat) getting napkins, candles etc for DD birthday at the end of the month. Not going to go mad on the present (will ask her dad to get something more valuable! :rotfl: Let's see shall we?
Will be having family over on the last Saturday of the month which means food etc...not going to go mad this time though. hopefully my sis will make her a cake :T

Hi
It's been ages since I've written. So overwhelmed with work at the mo and everything else!
Bought DD presents yesterday. Bargains.:money:Got the party food. Tried to go budget but it still came to a lot :eek:
Got my fence being bought and put up (fingers crossed!) by my roofer :rotfl: That's probably going to be loads:eek:
Yesterady at work was awful! Just held it together but thankfully today is better.
Must get car booting...looking for a good one in East London and the around that area?

Ha ha MIT Nooooooo! He's married and lives down my road...gonna over charge me too I'm sure!
Thank you so much everyone...you are angels:A
Now the next thing.... am all anxious as over the last month have been aware of a hard, thickened area in one side of my 'chest'. Noticed it when I was doing my Zumba.:( Had been taking Red Clover supplement which I don't think helped as it's supposed to mimic oestrogen? I took it for PMT but might have had too much oestrogen? Of course I'm hoping it's a cyst. My mum had a double mastectomy in her 40's but has done really well. Always so much to worry about. Trying not to catastrophise but feel so much responsibility. Am having an examination tomorrow (on DDs birthday):(:(:( but need to sort out.
MIT I didn't catch up with your post about your DD. I'm assuming all was ok?
Hard to concentrate today but am trying hard to be distracted and not obsess.
Sorry for such a negative post but I find the diary community so supportive

Ah, sorry to hear that. Easy for me to say try not to worry and you're certainly keeping busy. At least tomorrow will soon be here - always worse not knowing. Will be keeping fingers crossed it's nothing serious.
I know what you mean about supplements and stuff - they seem to have such an effect on me these days (oh I'm so old :rotfl:) that the Over 50 multi-vits made me feel ill. That's probably because I'm not 50 for a few years yet and was getting an overdose of something in them :eek:
Try evening primrose for PMT - I liked the B00ts combined Cod Liver Oil with it - trying to keep the creaks at bay :rotfl:Back on the DFW Wagon:
