  • Childminding day , the weather isn't great so won't be going far . DD was looking very tired this morning apparently youngest has been waking up very early . Even after 3 children she is just like she was when she was a child loved her sleep. 
    Sorted out some new pots specifically for this year, parents Diamond wedding , my 60th , energy extra money for bills , plus another one for part time working . Hoping to fill these up as much as I can for the next 4 pay days .
    It's all a bit worrying for most people all the rising prices .
