Morning Diary,Groundhog day again!! A lovely day whilst waiting for the washer to do its thing.Nothing too exciting happened yesterday, 2 loads of washing, a run with DD2 and a lovely homemade curry for tea.DFOD, yeah its his! This is with GF no 2 who hes been with since September... they didnt wait long (not that thats my business ha!). The girls have been ok with the news, they like the GF and her son which is good. I dont think they ever banked on having so many siblings/step siblings and they have gone from having each other to having at least 4 other children in their lives.Hope everyone remains healthy xxMummytogirls x3

Afternoon Diary,Week 2 of the holidays... its a bit like groundhog week!!! The weather is so lovely here, really makes things better when the sun is shining.Today is day 25 of social distancing for us. Me and DD2 went for a walk to wish her friend a happy birthday... from a distance obvs! Saw loads of people we knew along the way so had a tiny catch up with each of them. Im not forcing myself out every day, if I fancy a lazy day im doing that too. Trying to tell myself that this (hopefully) won't happen again so we should enjoy (for want of a better word) it as much as we can. I think so many people rush around all the time and this is forcing us all to stop.Been to the butchers today and spent £25 on bacon, sausages, chicken breast and steak.Also had the all important washing out to dry!Hope all ok and still well xxMummytogirls x2

That's a good way of looking at it MTG that we should try and enjoy slowing down a bit. I bet you enjoyed having a bit of a chat from a distance

Morning Diary,Hope all ok. Currently on hold to CMS trying to speak to them for an update. Im not sure if they will speak to me as the recorded messages only gives information about changes you can make. I need to speak to them though as there is nothing online which is where they refer you to! Will see what happens when I get through!Just trying to think of a positive in a very negative time HHODIts a very lovely day here today. Plan is to wash DD2's bedding and get that line dried.

Morning Diary,Friday! The last day of the Easter holidays, the strangest one ever!!!The weather has been really lovely last couple of days, the temperature has dropped today and its very fresh lets say. I hope it warms up a bit but not sure it will.Yesterday me and the girls planted some seeds in a bid to get some flowers in the garden! Will be interested to know if any of them take haha!! Were also having a sunflower growing competition too.Beanie and DFOD, I did manage to speak to them but the advisor couldnt look into my case, he has to get someone to call me back... still waiting for my call!!! I have budgeted to receive nothing in May as id rather do that and if I do get anything it will be a bonus. Ill probably ring them back again next week.Thats about all really! Hope all ok xxMummytogirls x1
