Mummytogirls - taking the scenic route

Afternoon Diary,

Apologies for not posting had a busy few days! DD had a competition Sunday and we didn't get in until 9pm :eek:. Still it was a NSD .
Yesterday was first day back at work and it went well. Spent £10 on petrol and £6 on a few bits in Mr T's express. Ate healthily and then went spinning which I hated!!!

Today is a NSD (for now will explain in a min). Went to work as normal this morning but got a call at work after 1pm to go collect DD2 from school. She was totally fine when I dropped her at breakfast club but had become unwell and fallen asleep! Ive given her calpol and put her into bed but she's absolutely burning up. I hope the school passed on the message for DD1 to walk home or else she won't know whats going on! Were running a bit low on calpol but have loads of ibuprofen so will see how she goes but it may end up a spend day if I need to go and buy some. Will call it a NSD for now.

Food:
Breakfast - porridge with nutella and banana
Lunch - nannas magic soup, wholemeal bread, grapes and penguin
Tea - pasta bake and garlic bread
Snacks - banana and crisps

Positives:
* should be NSD6 of 8
* the sun is shining (even had to open the windows as it was stifling in the living room!)
* 6 days until payday :beer:

Redo and Beanie, I do like to keep up to my ironing if possible!!! I actually don't mind it if its under control :rotfl:.

Hope all ok x

Afternoon Diary,

Another lovely bright day here. DD2 had a very unsettled night so is off school today. She hasnt had any medicine since first thing this morning and seems to be keeping the temperature down so hopefully she can be back to school tomorrow. She certainly looks a lot better this afternoon. Ive been to work this morning whilst DH worked from home and he's now gone in for the afternoon.
I didn't buy any calpol, I tried her with 1/2 a paracetamol snapped into about 6 pieces and she managed it so will try with just this going forward as its sooo much cheaper and she is 9 now.

Popped into Mr T's exp on way home to buy some bread, butter, potatoes and crisps, it came to £5.95. Really fancied a cheese toastie for lunch so had that and it hit the spot!

Food:
Breakfast - weetabix
Lunch - cheese toastie and slice of toast
Tea - roast beef (from freezer), yorkshire puddings, mash, carrots and peas
Snack - penguin biscuit

Positives from today:
* DD2 is feeling better
* cashed out £1.58 from Quidc0 :money: every little helps

Hope all ok xx
