    Had a lovely day at the beach today. DS1 is getting really good at his flips and tricks, DH half killed himself trying it too :eek:.

    Boys had fish and chips so no NSD. Only one achieved in July :o.

  • Waves of fear day today :(. Haven't done much apart from DS2 at dentist and the 3 boys getting hair cuts. Oh, and chub club but least said about that the better :eek:.

    Yesterday was nice, met up with some of DH's friends from school and their families. Perfect for DH as those are the days his memories are still intact from. They all have children now so we had lunch at a pub then went on to a park with water sprinklers etc for the kids to play.

    Pennies are tight now, trying to survive on not very much til we go away Xx

    Hi lucky I have been so busy with the new puppy hardly a moment to myself. I hope that you have an amazing holiday and I will be thinking of you all. Sorry re PIP hope you hear soon xx

    Paid off all Catalogues 10.10.2014
  • Hi Sparky, how's she settling in? Bet it's like you've always had her!!

    Needed food shopping again this morning- where does it go?! Spent £23.09 but paid £10 of that with clubc@rd vouchers so £13.09 'actual' spends. I know you aren't supposed to buy things instore with the vouchers, but I looked online and there wasn't anything that made more financial sense that we could use. For example, I could get money off at Lightwater Valley which we will probably go to over the summer, but it's only available off the full price at the gate, which is £10-£15 more per person than it is online!

    DH has been wobbly again today. He's gone to the gym with his mate this afternoon as he refused to cancel, but I'll be pleased when he's back safely. At least mate picks him up and drops him off even though gym is walking distance.

  • DH got back not long after I last posted, but he'd had a wave on the way home which I think scared him. He's asked me the same questions in a loop since then. I'm feeling a mix of :eek:, :( and :mad:. Might lock myself in the bathroom and have a little cry.
