It's been a spendy day as me and OH went shopping so that he could chose a belated birthday gift. Other than that, I've pretty much done nothing all day except watch rugby . We won :T so super happy.

I am an artist.
This means I live in a fantasy world with unrealistic expecations
Thank you for understanding.

May the next few months be a period of magnificent transformation

Never stop doing the little things for others. Sometimes those things occupy hte biggest part of their heart.

REMEMBER HOW
Your clothes don't fit
You feel sluggish
Your skin doesn't glow
You don't have energy
You want to feel beautiful
You're regretting what you ate
You're wishing you'd worked out
You wanted to change......
BEFORE making another UNHEALTHY choice

You've always been beautiful
Now you're just deciding to be healthier, fitter, faster and stronger
Remember That

You're not a mess
You're a deeply feeling person in a messy world.

Listening to music at high volumes
makes a person calmer, happier and more relaxed.

Morning all,

I didnt go shopping yesterday as planned as my sister pulled out so just had a tiny spend of some extra veg so I could batch cook.

Did the rest of my school work ready for the return on Monday. Really dont want to go back already.

However, today is a lovely sunny day and Im off to take my grandad out for lunch

Anyone got any good advice about treat pet wounds? One of my dogs has had three biopsies on his ankle in the last week and a half. They;ve told me to take the bandages off to let it dry out and that I can put a sock over it to stop him licking it, however he just pulls the socks off (I;ve taped them on as instructed) and hes too flexible for those Elizabethan collars as he can still reach his whole body! I think Im just going to have to leave it open to dry, I woke up nearly every hour to try and put the sock back on last night and he just gets it straight back off :rotfl:

Good Morning Turtles

today is NSD # 18 :T tomorrow will most certainly be a spend day as its Grandads funeral but I am hoping to get another cheeky NSD in on Tue

It looks like Tax free Childcare have prosessed my manual payment to nursery. its not awfully clear but I think they have. & if so, this will be a real relief.

not overly clear on budgets as it all depends on tax free childcare however if thats worked then they are as follows
1000 Emergency Fund
700 paris
100 xmas 18 (I have a budgeted plan to get this to 1k by xmas)
185 spends ish til APRIL - :eek: this makes me feel a bit queezy however I am breaking it down into £40 per week & I can always Borrow from my EF if Im desperate providing I don't need to repay nursery. I also have M&S & boots vouchers. hello repeated YS shooping :rotfl:
I am expecting a small bill from work because I used their courier service which will need to come from the EF this month but this is exactly why I saved that cash to have a small pot to help us through what were always going to be tight months.
off swimming today providing the washing machine arrives in time
Hub bought me some daffodils yesterday I love daffodils in the house, they remind me of my Grandma & make me feel happy . they are in the middle of my new dining table - which only has one chair at the mo as hub is working on the others still. :rotfl:
finally tackled my frog although it seemed like an elephant I cleaned all my outside windows. the cats trample through the bog that is our garden and then jump up against the window. yak. they look so much better though now. & hub has started work on the garden I cannot wait to get out in it again with the sprogs.
my new frogs are- clean the climbing frame, finish chairs & change my pics round in my living room. They are all of tiny babies that have now become a toddler & a preschooler (theres less than 18 months between my two boys 18 months & almost 3) .

thankful for-
daffodils, my babies dancing to "This is me" , my eldest pulling the drawer out on our bed & using it as a step to get up- he does it every morning. a good night sleep & life lessons learned mother nerds comment about one day being greatful for the times that broke your heart rings true for me

I hope every one has a relaxing Sunday

I had the same problem with my 4 sons.

NSD 16 and 17!

Read 4 books this week (pure smut)

Gave blood this morning, so that is that done for another few months.

Will do a spot of baking for lunchboxes and make sure homework is done (yawn!).

Very interested to see if The Beast from the East will actually happen, or if it will be a bit cold for a few days. I am always a bit bemused when the weather becomes a part of the news, instead of the bit tacked on at the end of the news, and even more bemused when the posibility of the weather becoming the news becomes the news a week before it becomes news. Or it does not happen at all.

NSD achieved today - 17/18
Managed to deal with 2 frogs. Signed and posted the picture/form to agree with the wording on Mum's gravestone. Also emailed a company about a policy I took out for the cooker requesting a refund, hoping that they will refund the money.
Also chasing up people for the meet up next month to see who is still able to come.
Made another donation on Friday to a charity.
Grateful for:
Having a chilled out day.
Done some baking.
Dealing with a couple of frogs.
Getting things ready for work tomorrow.
