    Hope that will sort it all out, Hidden. Well done on the wee ones getting their attendance award. I know some people who keep their children from school even when they are obviously not unwell.

    It's been so hard to get their 100% they've never done it before and DS is in year 3 :o Especially with youngests hospital visits and her health etc. Got to say I'm proud of the effort they've put in, there's been times they've been kept up to attend a&e at all hours yet still wanted to go even though I'd have let them stay off in those situations.

    It sort of makes me sad knowing youngest won't ever get the award or gift, yet it isn't her fault but that's life I guess.

    ExOH says he will send some money over tomorrow but won't hold my breath. Still waiting for PA to hit Circle. Need milk and electric but that's it I think.

    I'm sure she'll do well in other ways. Fingers crossed for some money tomorrow.

    Finally the last day!

    Going to spend the day doing some jobs around the house then planning some things to do in the holidays (crafts/baking etc) its a lot easier if I have all the things planned out in separate folders and all the things needed together than trying to do it with them helping ;) Good to be organised.

    Have done a meal plan and we just need some milk, I will make basic bread to see us over we don't use much bread anyway.

    I still didn't list anything on eBay or find anything to list! So maybe I'll tackle that too if I have time.

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Goodness, Hidden, you're doing so well with your surveys. PA doesn't like me at all. I don't qualify for any of their surveys. Shouldn't you take fine number 1 out of your debts as he should be paying that himself? I take it he hasn't sent you any money either.Snuggling up in bed with the kids sounds like an excellent idea.
