    Evening all. Hope everyone is well. We had a great weekend and the science centre day out was done very MSE. Got some money off vouchers and took all food except ices with me.:T . Last year I would have gone to the cafe and then took them to macD;s on the way home and would have spent a fortune. I didnt even give them money to spend in the shop:o . They weren't too bothered tbh. I think they are getting used to me saying 'we cant afford it'. I am not overspending at the moment but I am well aware that there are loads of areas I could be saving money on and I am not, as I am using any extra money to ensure a nice Christmas for us. I am quite looking forward to the new year so that I can update my siggy and get my butt in gear and start getting this down again x
