Diary of my new life !!!

Morning all ... checked my bank account this morning and my tax credits, child benefit, aqa money and cheque from ex-mi have all cleared today so its looking much healthier!! I can't move any of it across to the mortgage fund as its all either needed for food/bills this month or to clear the overdraft (again:rolleyes: ), but hopefully it should mean that by the end of the month I'm not too overdrawn if at all
Not much excitement planned today ... off to school in a minute, then nothing planned yet for later. Have a good day everyone !! x

Hi benben
Thats a nice regular update! Makes me think, sometimes surprises are a *bad* thing! Living in craziness and adrenalin is not all its cracked up to be! Have a good day.

Well, I sat in a music lesson this afternoon planning what to do when I got home and decided I would pick ds up and then go and buy stuff to make gingerbread men with him ... all went fine till I got to my aunts to collect him an he was spark out on her sofa, and had been asleep for 3 hours since she collected him at lundhtime from school Bless him, he's got a temperature and is now safely tucked up on the sofa with his favourite puppy and a big snuggly blabnket and a sickie bowl :rolleyes:

So, now I remember why I don't bother to plan anything Luckily my Mum is able to come down tonight to look after him tomorrow so I don't need to have time off work What would I do without her?? As much as I wouldn't want my ex back it does wind me up how stuff like this doesn't affect him ... he's off on holiday (again) with his girlfriend at the mo ... then again, I wouldn't swap for the world ...

Aww bless him hope your ds soon feels better and that you don't catch whatever it is . Your Mum sounds great too. Have a nice cosy evening. XX

It just feels like since he started school in September that he or I have been constantly ill !!!! :mad: :mad:

Oh I can relate! If it's not a cold, sickness or a cough then it's something else at the mo!

Do hope he feels better soon - thank goodness for your mum!

That quite often happens with children in their first year at school. Something to do with meeting all those new germs and immune system not quite built up enough. Bizarrely it also often happens with new teachers on teaching practice or in NQT years!

Hope he's feeling better soon. DD was sick at weekend so my sympathies are with you both.

Well he's all tucked up in the land of nod now he asked to go to bed at 6pm so is most definatly not feeling right :rotfl: I just hope he feels better tomorrow well, I'm gonna grab a quick bath before my mum gets here, luckily I tidied up last night so don't need to rush round like a loony before she arrives

Ds spent the night being sick or waking up for a drink :rolleyes: so I'm a bit knackered tonight but the good news is he seems a lot better tonight and has managed to eat some toast and keep it down :T
My £80 from topcashback arrived in my account today so that was immediately transferred across to the mortgage pot and the calculations shoe it has knocked another month off :j :j :j So now we're aiming for a mortgage free date of May 2032 instead of the original date of December 2034 :beer: :beer:
Today I have spent £1.90 on lunch.

benbenandme

£2.50 on lunch today but thats all
My John Lewis order arrived today and I got an email from the Bookpeople to say they've dispatched my order, so hopefully that will arrive by the weekend :beer: Yet again, I'm hoping to have a sort out for xmas this weekend and get organised :rolleyes:
Mum did all my ironing while I was at work today :T :T so the flat is tidy and I'm all up-to-date on jobs, but could do with a really good clean at the weekend
I took £30 out the cash machine this morning and I still have it in my purse :T :T thats soooo unlike me!!
Really must do some more AQA'ing tonight but its hard to do it with my parents here as mum keeps chatting and putting me off :rolleyes:
