    Hope you all had a good easter.

    My gosh 8 girls to watch at a ponys party was too much... boys are so different from girls lol!

    Finished 13 reasons why and just changed my outlook on few things, so graphic the ending cd not watch the r*pe scene and struggled through the suicide. Amazing show though what an eye opener.

    Nothing much update over weekend. I was very good and stayed in. My niece turned 7 yesterday and was on Clyde FM for win a ride tomorrow. Find out tomorrow morning if she wins :D If anyone listens tomorrow its Sophia :)

    9 days to payday and struggling lol

    also got myself a vape again. Gonna stick to it and hope i dont lose this one :P xx

  • Wow 8 is a lot!

    Oh I have never heard of that 13 reasons, might need to look it up.

    9 days, not too long my lovely.
