    The weekend is nearly over, I have done a tiny bit of work but am slowing down now prepping for Easter Hols.Did I say HOLS???????? Hurrah even better the Easter hols combine with payday. Rent money will be coming in tomorrow too and that is going straight to savings.

    I have hardly spent any money this month but I am popping over to visit parents on Saturday. I have been invited for a social on Thursday night but don't know if I want to go?????

    Good news is I popped into the garden and looked at the flowers - it was lovely. Also I did some clothes drying outside for the first time this year. Summer is coming Hurrah.

    The days are brighter thanks to the clock change. Am dead excited as I'm going to carry on planting flowers like crazy all spring and summer. I am the mad flower lady of Hampshire. lol.

    Blood sugars ridiculously high as my meter broke down. It's fixed for now and that explains why I keep nodding off. I am shattered so going to sleep and fingers crossed will be able to write some lessons when I wake up. I have washed all the table cloths and they are drying outside. V MSE.

    No spend so far all weekend and today. Rent money went into savings today. Payday on Friday I think. Yay.

    Oh no, SW, take care of yourself :( Both ends of the blood sugar spectrum are not good things (daughter of a T1 diabetic here, not personal experience). Hope you feel much better in the morning - well done on the washing. I sat outside after dinner yesterday and was so happy the clock have changed.

    I put new batteries in today and it was still temperamental. Sugars finally calmed down again after some weird fluctuations but regardless I had a cracking day at work. Fingers crossed it continues tomorrow. Two working days left and then two weeks off and a payday too. Hurrah for Easter.

    Easter hols have begun. I have had to cancel the visit to my parents as I have too much work to do. I will do a bit everyday and then hopefully will feel more confident at work when I go back.

    I was ill in the night as I didn't have any food in the house. Hence I am going off for a healthy food shop. Weather is rather cloudy. I don't mind I much prefer that to the rain we will be having. Susan is coming today I think but I don't know what time.

    don't worry I am following your advice as I've done nuffink today. So far I have vacuumed and mopped and shopped for food. Total spend £48 including two very expensive bank holiday taxi fares.
