    Evening Diary,

    All well here in Mummy's land, only problem is I can't stop spending money :eek:. We were meeting up with DD's friends today and usually it would have been the park but the weather has been rainy again here. So we ended up at soft play. I drew £30 out, spent £4 in Mr Al's, gave the girls their spending money and have now got £5 in my purse :eek:. Really just need to get on holiday now and eat and drink the all inclusive and spend no money :rotfl:.
    Thats not going to happen is it!

    We are not meeting up with anyone now so that should stop the spending! I have got a list of jobs as long as my arm aswell!

    Thats about all from me xx

    Not long until your hols now. All inclusive is brilliant when you've got kiddies, saves a fortune. Have a fab time xx

    I know :(

    Makes things so much more expensive too when you can't do the park etc!

    Afternoon Diary,

    Just having 5 mins before I need to get on with tea.

    Had a very busy day today, washed the girls bedding and got it line dried just in time for a bit of rain. Been to the doctors for a medication review, taken the old books to the library, collected an order from b00ts containing DD's ear plugs for swimming, caught up with the ironing, collected our Euros and packed... Phew theres no wonder I feel tired now.

    Tomorrow's jobs include a bit of pampering with nails and waxing and then cleaning the house and washing our bedding.
    Im going to get up early with DH tomorrow that hopefully I will be able to get some sleep Thursday night and we are getting picked up at 4am Friday :eek:.

    Did the meter readings today and I'm £66 in credit which is good as weve only got 1 week of us being here now so will be interested to see how much the house uses when were not in it!!!

    Think thats about all, hope all ok xx
