    Yes BM, it makes sense to have something to break up the week :D.

    This morning I had some lovely peace and quiet while DH went out for a cycle ride with Paramedic Mate and another friend. I did some washing and ironing, made a pan of soup and washed up afterwards, entered some competitions and watched a bit of This Morning. Bliss!

    This afternoon we had a coffee afternoon at DS1's school for World Book Day so £2 spent there. £4 at Parkour tonight and then DH and the boys went into the cheapy card shop while I waited outside. I haven't been given the change yet so don't know how much they spent :p.

    Aunt Flo has arrived so I'm hoping I'll stop feeling so miserable/irritated soon!!

    Happy Mother's Day Lucky. I hope your boys have spent the day looking after you.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Happy Mother's Day all! Hope everyone has had a lovely day. I got 3 lovely cards (a bought one from each boy and 1 made at school by DS2 :D). I didn't get any presents because I didn't want anything, though DH was gutted when he realised last night that they hadn't bought me anything.

    Took the boys swimming this morning while DH did spin class with his mate. Mums got in free today so just £2.10 spent there. No other spends today. Had lunch at MiL's and my Mum, her partner and my Sister came too :D. Lovely family afternoon. Lots of naughty food and drink though :o. I did the washing up vigorously, but I don't think it would have made a dent in the calories!!
