    Afternoon Diary,

    You guys are going to have me in tears with your lovely comments :D.

    Thank you so much SM, WF, Mum and wife, HHOD and SA. HHOD, I have to admit that thought has already crossed my mind :eek:.

    So yesterday I had my nephew so took him and DD2 to McDonalds for lunch and then the park. It was cold but bright and we blew away some cobwebs. DD1 was back at school.

    Today I have just caught back up with the housework and ticked a few jobs off my to do list such as clearing out some drawers and shredding paperwork.

    My freezer is becoming a bit of a joke as I keep adding to it and not removing anything :cool:. I can literally fit nothing more in and can probably eat for the whole of January out of it. Must remember this and reign myself in at the supermarket :rotfl:.

    Today is NSD2 :money:.

    Hope everyone is ok, back to work on Monday! This has been the longest 2 weeks off ever!!! xx

  • I'm glad you're realising how well you can manage without ex :D. If things didn't work out with his new girlfriend and he came crawling back, I wonder what you'd say :think:.

    You definitely need to avoid food shopping, but think of the money you can save by eating out of the freezer for a while :rotfl:.

    Enjoy the rest of you holiday, are you back on Monday?

  • New girlfriend should remember - If they will cheat with you , they will cheat on you , it doesn't make things special

    although you are much better of without and sounds like your taking life by the horns , just remember to give Karma time , it works

    Funny how us women can do perfectly well without a man, but they can't seem to cope without a woman.

    I've just learned from my recent experience not to overfill the freezer - mine broke down and I had to throw a lot of stuff away. Back up and running now though.

    Hope you have a good week xx

    Afternoon Diary,

    Sorry I've been absent, going back to work always puts a stop to me posting as often. Work has been busy but good to get back into the routine.

    Life is good, girls have been testing a little bit but just trying to keep them in check! DD1 is being particularly difficult but I thats probably to do with her age aswell.

    Went out on a date last night ;). Really enjoyed it, he's a really nice genuine guy with lots going for him. Will see how it goes :D.

    Being lazy today and then I've got my nephew over to sleep tonight when the girls come back.

    Nothing more to report really. Hope all ok xx
