Right my positive pants are back on after a mildly irritating day 😂
Positives to mention - met sis in law for coffee and catch up, took Mum for her shopping, took the boys and a friend to the local skatepark after school. Thanks to the aforementioned rain, plans to have an ice cream were rapidly abandoned so I've transferred the £10 I'd planned to spend there to the CC. Also picked up a book for DS1 from the charity shop for a bargain 10p
Another V!nted parcel has been updated to delivered, hopefully this one will get to payment stage without any issues 🤞
