    We've been doing lots of painting tonight. The hall is mostly done now, although there are a few bits that need a bit of extra. The cream seems to need more coats to hide the plaster than the green or yellow. Hubby thought he'd finished the stairwell, but I saw a few bits that still need touching up. I think I'm more of a perfectionist than him. The landing is next, then there's quite a bit to repaint in the kitchen. If we ever get a massive windfall I'm getting in professional decorators to do the whole house.

    Slept well again last night thankfully.

    Only got today at work and then I'm off tomorrow for court. Back in Friday though.

    This last 5 weeks have flown over. I'm sure it's felt like forever for OH though.

    Fingers crossed we get in straight away and then it's done!!

    I slept better last night. Woke up once for the toilet and took me a while to doze back off. LO not happy as OH gone to work and LO not seen him. Normally he's awake before he goes. We tried to wake up before he went but no chance lol

    Meeting my friend at a pub this morning with a soft play area so LO can have a play and I can give her her wedding invitation

    Got my FG coming round this afternoon to try her dress on. Hopefully it will be ok

    Morning all, didn't sleep well. Got home from choir and started to fall asleep on the sofa so we went up to bed. OH was a little behind me as he turned off all the lights but by the time he got up I was asleep! was then waking up every few hours from 2. at 5.40 I gave up and started reading.

    It's miserable here raining and a dull grey. at least the rain mean the cars had defrosted themselves though.

    Fingers crossed for tomorrow Emma!

    Morning ladies, grey and rainy day here today! Been such a busy morning in work, just had a big chat with my boss about what I want to do when my contract ends in July, we then decided that if the lady I'm covering for comes back part time I can do this job part time and train to become an on site H&S consultant for the rest of the time. Didn't tell him I'll be moving to South Wales so might have to leave, don't want to tell them that until we have a date that we are going set in stone! Looks good for me anyway and I know that I have a job at the end of it!

    Just had a text of my mom to see if I want to go to lunch :) will meet her at a warehouse local to work where there's a really nice café both of us get a drink and cottage pie for just over £5 and its delicious! Can't wait. Will be good to have a catch up with her. Leaving in about 10 mins

    Nope, all of our family are here lol, OH has got a job in the RAF and will be based there for 18 months for training, after that we either move to another base in Scotland or back here to the base near us, where we will be mainly based for his 12 year contract.

    That's lovely, I love spontaneous lunches like that, used to do it a lot when I worked on the same street as my mum :) can't believe it's almost lunch time, where has the morning gone?

    At least you will have a more permanent base for the 12 years gives you some stability.

    Its been like that all week. I'm glad she text me because I haven't been having lunch until 1.30 - 2 all this week and last week.

    Ah don't worry! Yeah and it's good because even if he has to go anywhere else or abroad for a few years they always provide you with a house and have RAF schools so us or our children would never suffer because of it.

    Afternoon all

    Slightly peeved off today. My daughter went round to my son's house this morning so his girlfriend could do her nails. I text my daughter and said to tell her that they could pop round after. My daughter said that she had a driving lesson, so I assumed she was going to stay there and look after Freddie whilst she had her driving lesson. Anyhoo, she came back round home, I said where is Freddie going then? She said down to J's mum. Upset me a little as on Sunday we got him loads of stuff, so I sent her a pic of it all. She asked if it was for his birthday and I said no, just because we can, so she said she would pop round later that afternoon. One of the girls text her and she said she was at her mums all day. Sometimes I can go a week or more without seeing him, but her mum gets to see him most days. Just a little upset by it all as its not like we do nothing for any of them,

    Anyhoo, sat indoors watching Spider-Man as its on one of the movie channels, all three movies one after another,

    I found out last night that when my daughter had her friends round in Sunday night, one of them broke the television which happens to be my other daughter's television. Slightly annoyed about it as everyone kept it quiet and did not tell me, until my youngest piped up and said oh did you hear what happened To my tv. It's only a flat screen 19 or 21 inch so I would be pointless putting in a claim on the household insurance, now her mum is saying she will buy her a new one. I said at the end of the day it was my daughter's fault as well as she had it in a stupid place.

    Evening all

    So today was lovely to catch up with my old colleague, not seen her in a couple of years, went to the farm and her kids had fun playing with the animals, then had lunch and then went to the pub- what better way to spend a rainy day.

    Last night tonight so OH rearing us to a posh meal.

    Just got back so sat having a well needed cuppa, will then shower and get ready to go out for table at 8pm, hubby ordering a taxi too so we can both have a drink.

    Will spend most of tomoz down here too, check out not until 12 so can have a lie in and then go to another farm shop and buy some tasty bits to take home :-)

    Friday we are going to look at another wedding venue and then in the evening going out for dinner with them- luckily his sister won't be there are she just so happens to be going up to the lakes for a few days :-) xx

    I'm well peeeeed off. Earlier last year my ex bought me out if the house we had together... Great, my car got paid off and some money towards the wedding. Tax credits then told me they over paid me so will be paying it back!! Ok, it happens. So my 'spare money' was no longer.... February saw the end of this over payment, great I get my spare cash back..... You think?!! I noticed last Wednesday and today that they are taking £34 a week out of my account. I've rang them tonight and it's for a £431 overpayment back in 2013?!?!

    WTF......I've gone mental and really spat my dummy out. Every year when I was claiming I accurately told them my earnings. Why the hell can they not input it and work it correctly, so now for the next 8-10 weeks I'm short again!!

    I cannot wait til this wedding is over so we have so are money every month!!

    It's annoying, as last year when I gave them the details for renewal, th carried on paying, I thought it was right, only to find out months later nope! Yet it's my fault.

    Had such a chilled day spending it with the kids doing not a lot, just having snuggles here and there and watching television.

    You'd hope that if they made the mistake they'd shoulder the financial loss. If they had to absorb any overpayments they'd soon start calculating it properly. Don't suppose it's worth appealing?
