    Good to hear from you again. I thought of you the other day when I pegged out for the first time in ages 😆

  • Afternoon Diary,
    Thanks for popping by SA and HHOD. SA funnily enough ive pegged out a few bits today and had a little chuckle to myself about how obsessed I become ha!!!!
    Had a chilled out day and did nothing yesterday, had NSD8 in the process. Today ive been very productive. Went to Al's this morning and spent £22 on a few bits to tide us over until Friday when the shopping comes and its payday. Also went to my storage unit. I have some bits in storage which is costing me £76 a month for the priviledge. Anyway ive been today and brought some stuff home and me and DD's have just put them up into the loft. I didnt realise I had a half boarded loft until I moved in so makes sense to get the stuff up there rather than shelling out. Its still half full, some things will have to be tipped if I can't get anyone to take them off my hands. Ideally I should have done all this before I moved but I think I had enough on my hands at the time to think rationally about throwing things away.
    I going to give my 2 weeks notice and then at least im not paying for the sake of it.
    Back to work tomorrow, I hate the thought of it but know ill be fine once I get back into the swing of things.
    Hope all ok xx

    I think everyone dreads going back to work but once you’re there you’re fine. Good that you can get rid of the storage cost that’s quite a hefty payment a month.

  • Evening Diary,
    Day 1 back at work done! It was pretty boring and quiet really. I bet im not saying the same in 2 weeks time when all the kids are back in!!!!
    Today has been NSD9 and also DD1 and I have been through all her options stuff so we know what shes wanting to do now. Can't even believe its time to get this stuff sorted! 2 minutes ago I was packing her off for her first day at school.
    Think thats about all really xx

    Both you and I are doing well with the NSDs, I’m on 12 today. Do you think we’ll do as well when things start opening up again?

    Evening Diary,
    Wow cant believe its March already! The year really is marching on by.
    So today I had NSD1. Went out for a walk again after work and closed all my 'rings' on my watch! Its my mission to close them every day in March. Lets see how that happens if the weather worsens ha!!!!
    Everything is out of the storage now, had to go 3 nights after work last week but got it all out for Thursday.
    Just had to give the girls a telling off, really sick of them being so awful to each other. I can't even go up for a shower without them fighting lately. I get thats what happens when youve got 2 teenagers in the house. Anyway DD2 is washing up whilst DD1 is tidying her part of their bedroom and then they will swap over. Didnt even have to treat them like this as 2 and 4 year olds!!!!
    Also feel as though im running a launderette recently. Im going to tell DD2 she can start doing her own washing if she carries on the way she has been! I dont know what everyone else thinks but thinks such as hoodies should be warn more than once. Not in this house it would seem!
    Right think ive done enough whinging for one post! Hope all ok xx
