    Thank you all.
    The weekend has been about housework , filling in forms for parents and ordering birthday gifts . DGS is 7 on Friday where do the years go. I managed a short walk yesterday. Then in the late afternoon I started watching Behind Her Eyes on Netflix and watched all six episodes, I really enjoyed it. 
    Today I have been for a longer walk, took my car to the power wash across the street and it looks a lot better than it did. 
    Just having a small brunch , then need to do my ironing. 
    More presents to be sorted , a busy month March in my family , then Mother's Day thrown in as well. 
    I am off until Wednesday from work so going to really enjoy my last  couple of days of helping DD and children. 
    Enjoy your Sunday . 
    Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.

    As of today I am in last thousand pound of debt . I could pay it off , it's very tempting but I need the discipline of seeing something through to the end . Will possibly reconsider in another month or two .

    Enjoy your Sunday.

    The show was good will probably watch it when it starts soon. 
    A busy day outside with the GKs , I took little baby out in his pram on my own with the other two to the play park. Gorgeous sunny day feels like spring is on its way.
