Thank you CEW I will keep am eye out next month.
Spend day today as attempted to get my OH's Mother's Day present but it was sold out, however still needed other items from the same shop.
Tomorrow is a very spendy day. Need to buy presents and have arranged to go out for lunch and dinnerThink I may stay in for the rest of the month! Need the new challenge for a boost of enthusiasm!
I'm so desperate the pay off my ccard but this work on the house is still loomingFingers crossed, if I get a decent quote tomorrow I may be brave and pay all my put aside money off the ccard.

Congratulations clippy girl:j:j:j
DS3 went to the supermarket yesterday and the less said about that, the better (and he forgot the milk). Not sure what budget it's coming out of but he ain't getting the egg money grandma sent him. I've hidden half the things he bought for himself but heard a lot of cupboard doors banging last night so he may have found them - in which case I won't feel guilty cutting back on Easter treats.
He has done quite a lot of work this week - as long as I present it as a 5/10 minute job (his friend gets more work out of him and re-claiming the stairs has been quite tough). He also got his latest game on sale late Sunday but sales are not encouraging so far (weekends are best). Not asking him as he is anxious enough but I am allowed on his fb page to play games and have seen comments by his friends (not supposed to but putting it under monitoring his mental health).
Took Mother's Day card and present today and I am really glad to be back home and in bed. I think my leg is getting better (really need to get on with things) but today was a struggle and I'll be having another 3 NSDs because I'm not going further than the bins.
Bed needs re-doing but I don't seem to have anywhere left to put things - I have a hammer in the bed and a crowbar propped up at the end (both of which DS3 was using on the stair pieces) and they are staying because if I put them on the remaining floorspace I will probably fall over them in the middle of the night. Will have to tackle it in stages tomorrow.
Keep plodding torties (or crawling in my case).My mission in life is not only to survive,but to thrive and to do so with some Passion, some Compassion, some Humour and some Style.NST SEP No 1 No Debt No mortgage0 -
