    We don't use our credit card unless we really need to as it annoys me seeing money we have to pay off lol! I'm sure we will end up using it to pay for something but really don't want to lol xx

    We used it for suits as didn't want to take any money out of the wedding fund but know it will be paid off way before the due date. Had to put the Grand National tickets on there as they came to £440 haha, just got to wait for everyone to give us their money now. Was easier and quicker than waiting for everyone to give us their money and then booking it xx

    He is very happy. He wanted to do that for his stag from day 1 but was worried about missing out on tickets. At least we know we've both got plans now, very exciting xx

    had a party here on Saturday and feel bad for mr lala , he invited all UK staff .... but its amazing how you uncover lies..

    one friend said she had to go help work on the bar her family owns on the island
    one friend said she wouldn't come because she doesn't get on with someone else who had been invited ....

    truth was they went away for the weekend with a group of girls .... oh the danger of being tagged in a post on FB !!!!!!!!

    It's exciting but scary! I think the biggest weight off our shoulders is knowing we do have plans and the costs will already be taken care of a while in advance... then just need drinks for money/food etc when the actual weekends come. Will hopefully help make it a less stressful time when everything will be in full swing by then.

    Think it's just starting to hit OH now that this is real and we're getting married. Think it's becoming more real for me now too - so scary how fast time is going xx

    At least the only thing you need is a small amount of money for the weekend which won't be anything as you've already paid the big amount!

    It is scary how quickly next year is coming! xx

    Good morning lovelies ,
    6;15 here and decidedly grey ...so i think we could be in for rain ( which is no bad thing really ) .... maynot be going to the pool this afternoon.

    had a party here on Saturday and feel bad for mr lala , he invited all UK staff and only 3 came luckily we have a friend who does airport security here and he brought some staff that had just arrived on the island.... but its amazing how you uncover lies..

    one friend said she had to go help work on the bar her family owns on the island
    one friend said she wouldn't come because she doesn't get on with someone else who had been invited ....

    That's great that your all sorted with your stag and hen now, something to look forward too before the wedding!! Apparently my MOH has already started planning my hen, crazy lady we've got 2 and a bit years to go yet lol.
    I'm seriously lacking in motivation to do anything today. Took LO to her swimming lesson today and ended up taking her out after 20 mins as she just wasn't interested in doing as she was told. She's now at a play date at my nans, so obviously I'm sat with my feet up watching cbeebies hahaha

    Afternoon all, Looking forward to the end of today roll on 10.30pm or hopefully earlier if I can talk my clients to bed earlier haha! Trying to sort out finance sheets, phonecalls and the usual dramas here. 48 hours and will be on my way home. Just hope I don't get stopped at security at Gatwick as I have 25 candles in my hand luggage, I did e mail them awhile ago asking if I can take them through but just know I am going to get stopped.
    Other carer made me a cheese and cucumber sandwich then put salt in without telling me had to spit it out her face was a picture, I don't do salt apart from when I am cooking lol! Had to run up to my room teeth brushed mouth rinsed out so not eaten since breakfast as been too busy. break in an hour will get something then.

    Hope you are all having a good Monday x

    Love how excel can make me have a mini heart attack! one of the data analysts decided to change the paths to which the macros run on, being an HR folder he moved it to, I had no permission to access this, so my whole schedule mucked up! Lost everything, but had my trusty backup from Friday, thank goodness! all working now and hes had an ear full from me for my meltdown haha xx

    Afternoon all.

    Went to town, got step son his cards as hubby had not got any yet, popped to the new gelato place in town and treated myself and my daughter to a waffle, almost as good as spr!nkl3s. Will post a pic from my phone in a bit. On the way back we popped to my moh's new house. Had a cuppa and a natter.

    Yay almost home time! Not actually been a bad first day back, it's flown for me.

    Walking pooch with OH when I get home. He's been limping again recently - the vets didn't know last time what was wrong with him so said bring him back when/if he starts again, so we took him in last week and they still didn't really know. He doesn't show he's in pain or anything even when you move his leg about and squeeze it all over etc he's still happy as larry but there is obviously something wrong as it's a recurring problem. They gave him a week's worth of anti inflammatory tablets which seem to be making the limp better which would indicate something like arthritis, but we're going to take him on a long walk tonight to really test it out.

    If it's not that then he will need scans and it could potentially be elbow/shoulder dysplacia so he would need surgery to correct it!

    Thank goodness for pet insurance that's all I can say.

    The main thing is he's not in pain with it - or if he is, he's too ditzy to notice! Hopefully on the road to sorting out the problem whatever it is now though. Glad we're with P3t Pl@n now too as the vets can deal directly with them so we wouldn't need to worry about paying for anything first and then claiming it back. I would be worrying like crazy at the moment otherwise!!! xx

    Well good early evening everyone,

    I have been so tired today! Been up since 5:30am - took OH to work for 7am, got myself to work for 8am and then had nothing but problems all day with the stupid phones and the systems! Oh how I hate working in a call centre...... :-/

    On the plus side there is only 18 minutes and counting till I get to go home! Def looking forward to catching up with some TV and getting OH to cook for me (he finished work at 3:15pm!!!) Glad I've got the week off next week! xx
