    anywayyyyyys,
    Life update....
    kids are all doing great, Im doing good too.
    We are happy and healthy which is all anybody deserves.
    We are plodding along, on the tightest budget but proudly doing so.
    Ive been doing lots of make do and mend to reduce our outgoings even further, I even darned my wee girls tights when she got holes in them. I'm mrs frugal right now. My new motto is 'buy used and save the difference'.
    hope all of you are doing well. Happy days
    k and the clan . xxxxx

    Hallelujah! It finally went! Something is amiss with MSE atm, imho. Another thread I frequent has just disappeared (not for the first time)

    What the heck, it is great to see you back, Kim and I am so glad you and the Eight are doing well.

    ahhhh, been super efficient today, don't 4 months worth of budgeting taking me up to end of may! it was a painful hour or so and I redid it twice as I forgot things or had to add odd payments in. I feel proud that I know exactly what I want my money to do for the next 4 months. Its gives me a sort of calmness.
