From reading your diary Lucky, I’ve certainly come to that conclusion too. It’s awesome how a band of total strangers can share stories and empathise. There’s just an aura of love surrounding everyone - amazing! :heart2:0

It’s been dry here again today, but with a chilly wind. Gave the boys the choice of what to do and they picked trampolining - as long as all 4 of us bounced rather than DH and I watching :eek:. Paid for it using the last funds in my Carer’s account, but think I’ll be paying for it in an entirely differnt way tomorrow!! My back :eek: My knee :eek: My feet :eek::rotfl:. It was good fun but I’m too fat and old for trampolining apparently

DS2 is booked in for a haircut tomorrow. He inherited my curls and he has a lovely head of hair, but it’s getting so long he can barely see!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

I bet you enjoyed the trampolining though, despite a few aches and pains afterwards, the boys must have loved you joining in too

Great way to exercise and have fun Lucky!! One of my favourite pastimes when I was younger. Chilly here too but sunny with it. Hope the rest of your week is good xx0

Hi PLMBL, hope all is well in your household and your joints aren't paying the price too much for jumping
You always pack so much in with your boys. I know things have been really tough over the years, but they're going to be able to look back on lots of fun things you've done with them. Have a good day. xx 0 -
Thanks everyone :A Xx
Woke up to a rather lovely email informing me I’d won £153 on the lottery :j. So relieved to have a little more in the pot. Think I’m going to split it in three - £50 put away for holiday spends, £50 to help pay the bills, and £50 for fun/wants. I desperately need a new bra so might see if I can figure that in to the 3rd £50.
Went to the beach today as it was surprisingly warm. Took the dogs and MiL too. MiL bought fish and chips for her and the boys but DH and I polished our halos and had a SlimmingWorld friendly lunch when we got home instead. It nearly killed me as I love chip shop chips, but needs must. Hopefully I’ll get another good loss on the scales tomorrow.Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j
