Glad you have had chance to clear the air with Mr S, hope things turn out the way you want them to.
How exciting, I love a new phone - what sort is it? Can you put loads of money making apps on it?

So more chatting with Mr S yesterday and he stayed over last night. It's all quite complicated, but I'm just going with the flow for now and enjoying it as it comes.
Today was a relatively calm straightforward day at work, don't get too many of them these days
Tonight I have got some washing done and pottered about a bit, helped ds with some homework and generally had a relaxing evening. 4 more days to go til half-term

Aaah, made it to the end of the day and came home to some nice post - finally my council tax has been sorted and they have applied the single person discount and refunded me £116 :j :j I haven't added it to my total yet as I may go shopping tomorrow and treat myself

Ds is going to his Dads tonight and then my plan is to chill, write a to-do list for the week and generally not do much
