Can you believe ASHLI took those pictures :eek: She's not even 3 but has figured out how to use the camera on my phone! And look at the composition! I know adults that can't take pictures like that!!!!!

Also you can see how purple my hair is! lol!

That guitar pic is fantastic - I saw your avatar before I read your thread, and thought 'oooh, that's very classy and arty' - what a clever girl she is! :T

Awww glad you're feeling a bit better.. just don't pass it our way :rotfl:

The girls are fine.. K now has 2 gnashers and Ash is being a stubborn mardy bum if she doesn't get her own way.. anyone would think the teens had come early!

Oh yea.. guess I should confess. We did our xmas shopping today. On the egg card :doh:
I just got very stressed early that we had done hardly any xmas shopping, it was already the 9th and Ste's wages wouldn't go in until the 20th by which time pretty much everything we wanted to get would probably be out of stock what with it being 5 days before xmas and all :eek:
So we did it today. At first evaluation I think we've got everyone's presents now and there's no one else to buy for that I can immediately think of. Will obviously have to double check but I think we're ok.
Oh and in my defence we did get discount in Argos which amounted to £7 off
So in total.. £194.25 today but that included £15 petrol. But all in all we came in way under budget for present shopping so we did well. The card will still be paid off by the end of the year so I'm not worried. Just means that instead of £134 balance it's now £328.57. No problem though. It'll soon be gone and now I'm not stressing about xmas shopping as it's all sorted.

Off to sort out my spreadsheets

I'm loving your new, more relaxed attitude - you will still get there, but you're not beating yourself up over the little things any more.....must be the purple hair - more relaxing than red!

lol thanks.. I've just given up trying to be perfect and be obssessive about everything. We've done nothing but count every penny for over a year and to be fair it's worn me down to a point where my head is just screaming for me to say 'f**k it' and just relax about it. Things are so much less stressful now we haven't got loads of cards and debts and bills and the only issue now is that we don't have as much coming in.
But for once I'm going to use the card for what it was made for... to borrow the money before paying it off in full. Might even treat myself to something nice on it but that may be being too relaxed :rotfl:
