    Mini WF fell downstairs! She's a constant worry that kid! She seems okay though just a few bruises to come out I expect! Really scared me though.

    She doesn't seem as chesty tonight but I don't want to get my hopes up for it to be bad again tomorrow.

    Everyone is sleeping and I've made my hot water bottle, a latte and armed with letters and bills to file and spreadsheet :rotfl:

    Hopefully she'll be right as rain in the morning. Latte sounds good - I think I was next to you spending £3.00 of two boxes of cappuccino. :D

    I've decided to set a goal of being Debt free for Xmas 2019! This is my aim. It needs £8.22 a week on top of the minimum payments. I know this isn't really anything huge but still I wanted to be realistic!
    That's amazing, W.
    Here's another one who worries about everything. I even worry when I have nothing to worry about in case I've forgotten something I should be worrying about!
    Hope the wee one if OK this morning.
    Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.

    Littlest seems okay this morning :) Still got a cough but at least it's just a cough. She wants to make pancakes so must be feeling a bit better in herself.

    I did get some sleep :) I've done the cleaning and ironing just waiting on the last load of bedding drying. DD has done her homework I just need to battle with DS now to come and do his.

    The weather isn't as bright today :( But at least it's dry! I'm loving the earlier sunrise time though. It makes the get up and go so much easier!

    Cherry I was thinking it would save on paper cup coffee.. However I think it might just be something else I can't stop drinking.. Bet they have loads of calories too :o I'm not even looking! I don't usually have milk or sugar!

    Happy Saturday
