    Haven't responded to all comments personally because of intensity of course and missing some comments.

    It is something I would like to pursue going forward. I always doubt my ability, but being nicknamed what I was, and seeing my creations, makes me realise I can achieve.

    All of your kind compliments shows me there is a market for my style.

    Thank you, you have no idea of the impact that you have had x

    Beautiful creations 😍 I hope you decide to make a go of it as you’re too talented not to and there’s a market out there just waiting to be tapped into x

    A very spendy weekend, but it is fine.

    Had the day with DD yesterday, got her nails done, then got her school uniform sorted as her school have changed designs and also supplier so that was a cost I could have done without. I have some unopened packs of her other uniform as well. They have said they can transition slowly and this year they can wear both, but sizes may sell out if everyone is transitioning over to the new uniform. I would rather have it. Got her new school bag, and all her equipment as well.

    Then we had a meal for my cousin's 60th birthday at a local restaurant.

    I will use the summer money to cover all these costs.

    Today I am taking DD to Wales to meet her friend who is on holiday there.

    I have a lot of appointments this week for various things.

    Friday will be another spendy day. I get paid summer money and have promised DD lunch out, she also needs some gym wear leggings for her school PE kit so that will be done and that will be finished then.

    Still recovering from the course! My head is full of ideas!

    Have a good week everyone. X

    Had a productive week so far. Gave some items to charity so lots cleared out.

    Some prep work for the work being done in a few weeks.

    Tomorrow is summer pay day and a nice day with DD.

    Money is okay. X

    Summer work pay day!!

    I love this pay day. Makes the hard work seem worth it all.

    Will be taking DD out later. My cousin has a surgery today so I have taken him and just waiting for him. Hopefully shouldn't be too long.

    We have a list of items that we need to get today.

    Tonight we are at friends house for tea. The weekend is relaxed thankfully! Next week is another busy week.

    Thanks Honeysuckle.

    Yesterday was nice. I took my cousin and then DD and I went shopping. I got the last remaining bits for her school PE kit and got us some holiday bits as well.

    We bought a few treats and went out for lunch. We were home relatively early before we went to our friends for tea. It was an indulgent day, but one I have always budgetted for. Another busy week this week. I think this August is the busiest I have ever had.

    Did a little balloon course today on clear balloons. Here are a couple of the makes. So hard to get a picture of them.
