Morning Diary,

Cant believe its Sunday already, these weeks are just flying on by!

Yesterday was a good day. Had 3 loads of washing dried outside, the only downside is that its all now sat waiting for me to iron .
DD1 went to football with Grandad and we then called in at Mr Al's for a few bits I had forgotten. Bought butter, juice, caramel shortbread (I didn't forget this DH picked it up!), lemonade and wipes for just over £5. Any other supermarket for a few bits would result in £30 later so I'm pleased with that.

Today as expected the weather is raining so glad I did the washing yesterday. We are supposed to be watching the adult team from DDs football play today and I think we should be ok as they have a stand so shouldn't get soaked. Still it would be nicer if the weather wasn't raining!
Need to call at N3xt and pick up the girls school trousers and also Mr T's for some gravy and milk. Will be armed with my £2 CC vouchers though .
So basically there will be spends today and tomorrow. All budgeted which makes it a bit easier to deal with.

Hope all ok xx

Evening Diary,

All well here in Mummy's land, only problem is I can't stop spending money . We were meeting up with DD's friends today and usually it would have been the park but the weather has been rainy again here. So we ended up at soft play. I drew £30 out, spent £4 in Mr Al's, gave the girls their spending money and have now got £5 in my purse . Really just need to get on holiday now and eat and drink the all inclusive and spend no money .
Thats not going to happen is it!

We are not meeting up with anyone now so that should stop the spending! I have got a list of jobs as long as my arm aswell!

Thats about all from me xx

Not long until your hols now. All inclusive is brilliant when you've got kiddies, saves a fortune. Have a fab time xx

Im looking forward to it SA. We will be spending a bit of money as we are planning a trip to Barcelona and a trip to the water park. Im sure it will be worth every penny xx

The rain is miserable isn't it!

It is WF, I've even had to use my dryer today . Were not used to this weather after the heatwave xx

I know

Makes things so much more expensive too when you can't do the park etc!

Afternoon Diary,

Just having 5 mins before I need to get on with tea.

Had a very busy day today, washed the girls bedding and got it line dried just in time for a bit of rain. Been to the doctors for a medication review, taken the old books to the library, collected an order from b00ts containing DD's ear plugs for swimming, caught up with the ironing, collected our Euros and packed... Phew theres no wonder I feel tired now.

Tomorrow's jobs include a bit of pampering with nails and waxing and then cleaning the house and washing our bedding.
Im going to get up early with DH tomorrow that hopefully I will be able to get some sleep Thursday night and we are getting picked up at 4am Friday .

Did the meter readings today and I'm £66 in credit which is good as weve only got 1 week of us being here now so will be interested to see how much the house uses when were not in it!!!

Think thats about all, hope all ok xx

Great news on the meter readings.

Hope you all have a brilliant holiday mummy.

Xx

Happy holidays Xx

Happy happy holidays.

Good Afternoon Diary,

Last day before we go on holiday . Been very busy again today but the house is pretty much straight now.
Ive got spinning class tonight and then literally a few things to pack after. I will have a wash load to get washed and dried too which is DH's work things and my gym clothes.

Im starting to feel a bit jittery now so trying to keep busy. Im not taking off's biggest fan and every time I think about it I feel a bit sick! Will be glad when were there and I can just chill. I never feel as jittery coming back for some reason!

Thank you Alice, PLMBL and Beanie for a wishing us a great holiday, I'm sure we will have a great time xx

Have an amazing holiday

x

Thanks WF xx

Hope you have a lovely break

Have a fabulous holiday. I love taking off it's the flying bit I get jittery about in case there's turbulence. Weird but I don't bother on the way back either.

Happy holidays

Happy new diary, the scenic route is much more fun

Morning Diary,

We are back big sad faces here!!! Had an absolutely brilliant time and I always wonder why I get jittery about the take off as I'm always fine! I think its just all the waiting around and anticipation of it all. Even DH who gets really jittery about flying was totally fine. I think it helped that we had hardly any turbulence unlike our last flight which we couldn't take our belts off for it .
We hardly spent any money and brought over 100 euros back so I'm going to change that back and put it into the savings.

The weather was atrocious as we got back, hail stones and everything! Took me all night to get back to this temperature .

Weather has been kind to us today though and is very sunny so as you can imagine the holiday washing it out drying.

I am on a bit of a downer today, hate coming back from holiday! We spend all year paying for it and weeks preparing and then its over just like that. Last night MIL, my dad and then my mum all rang with bad news from whilst we had been away. It has really made me think you really need to live life to the absolute max as much as you can. So with this in mind I've been looking for next years holiday .
MIL actually called over which is totally unlike her so I knew something was wrong and she's made mutterings about us all going away together.
Then my sisters text this morning saying it would be nice if we could all go.
We don't really do going away with people well as we like to please ourselves! Then again I see big groups of people enjoying their holiday together and it does make me want to do this.

Hope everyones ok, will catch up with everyones diaries shortly xx

Glad you had an amazing time.

Sorry to hear you’ve had bad news Xx

Glad you had a fab time. Coming home from holidays is hard I think I'd prefer to go on holiday with others just for someone else to occupy Mr SA. If you can still do your own thing it should be ok MTG it's when you've got to start pleasing other people it gets a pain.

Anyway welcome home xx
