Happy birthday to your DH Ionafan.
No flying here for the last couple of days. I've been feeling rough, had work in York yesterday and generally CBA. Will also not be taking the dogs out today as it can't be good for their paws when it's -4.
So all I've done so far is banking and paperwork and one work shift. Going to have lunch now and then read the paper before the next shift.Spend less now, work less later.0 -

Afternoon all,
This week has been busy and my anxiety has been awful. My main concern is around money (what's new). At least I get paid soon and there is some overtime money to come.
Not working today but been busy:
- emails sent for DH
- took delivery of logs and stacked them
- swept and generally tidied garage
- long dog walk
- laundry put away
- visited market for F&V
School run soon, DD is having a friend for tea and I need to pop to the shops for (beige) dinner supplies and get some bread from the bakery.
Have lovely evenings all xMFW

Well just sitting with a cuppa trying to pay BT for a new phone line we are having, but just being passed round the houses, it’s so frustrating when I want to pay them money ��
I have currently cleaned bathroom sink and wiped windowsill
Emptied and Zoflora’d bathroom bin.
Once I have finished on phone I will do HHC if anyone wants to join...
I plan to
Put on towels to wash
Clean hob
Empty recycling
Wipe kitchen sides and appliances
Wipe door fronts
Just put DS down for a nap in his room so I darent hoover landing or bathroom yet! Think his first teeth are on their way because he is very upset with rosy red cheeks, poor lil fella.
Was going to walk dogs, but decided just too chilly for them today, they are asleep on sofa so I don’t think they mind ��Mortgage overpayments 2014 £175

Have a hug atb my love, I am with you.
Looks like we might escape the snow but -7 this morning was bad enough. Lots of paid stuff, tough gym class, roast dinner cooked and eaten. DH off work unpaid because of the weather, we are doing a major financial overhaul at the minute, some hard truths need to be faced.
Roll on weekend. DS1 away at GFs so will be quiet here.0 -
Hugs ATB my anxiety is having a right flare up and the bloomin weather isn’t helping much..
Few bits & dailies done
Fixed my inner door, catch part fell out in the week:eek: New one now in, even charged my drill batteries for next time.:T
Been catching up on a few TV progs with lots of warm drinks.
Already on edge about my DS1 having to drive to work at 4am.. its not far yet its making me anxious :mad: bleedy stinky snow!
Here’s hoping it melts double quick & does one..
