    My OH and I have got a joint account and we've still got our own accounts too. If OH gets any extra money we put it in the joint.

    OH told me earlier that's he agreed to work in between Xmas and new year as his dad asked if he would. His dad said he will pay our honeymoon off as a thank you for him helping out when he should be having the time off and it can be his Xmas bonus. At least that will be one thing paid off it full and not have to worry about paying it next year

    Awwww Michelle, I feel your pain. When LO was that age it was between 5 & 6 everyday. It's only been the last year that he leaves us to sleep. He still gets up around 6-7 but he just gets his pad and watches films in his room.

    I stupidly set my alarm for 5.20 today as I needed to wash my hair and OH was on the railways last night so I wanted to be sorted by the time he gets home.....

    We are going to the toy shop this afternoon to get finished with Xmas presents and then I'm looking forward to a chilled afternoon.

    We put the tree up yesterday but it's not made me feel any more festive lol. LO decorated it on his own and to be honest, he's done a great job!

    Oh no GF that's a shame. Like you say, you will have to get a nap later.....

    I'm glad I got up early now as I'm all ready to leave the house and OH is home, in bed and snoring away!

    I can get my jobs done this morning that I wanted to. I need to nip to town to take something back and today it's free parking so I'm taking full advantage lol.... It will still be sooooo busy though!

    OH is is a lorry driver/machine driver and also company director of the family business. This particular job has got to be when no one is on site as its a demolition job so it's got to be done. Can't grumble if he's getting money towards the wedding.

    I've just had a shower and got dressed. LO been a pain since he got up. He just wants to be in to everything

    Hope you have a nice time shopping Emma x

    I don't know what to do today!

    I want to do something but not sure what. Might pop to m and b to get a few Christmas decs for the window - need some new lights I think as oh after Christmas last year decided he wanted to put the fairy lights around the spare bed headboard and then put the others in the back yard .. Looks pretty but now we have none for Christmas lol.

    I really want to take the dogs out for a good walk or to the field for a good run out but i imagine the fields are all going to be really boggy and theyve broken all their toys that they normally play fetch with as they insist on playing tug of war and they're both too stubborn to let go so they pull and pull until the toys die. Then they insist on growling and grumbling at each other whilst they're playing tug so they sound like gremlins .. Mums new neighbours thought they were full on scrapping th first time they heard them!

    Mums going for a test drive in the qa$hqa1 today. She wanted another $p0rtag3 but they've stopped making bright ones they're all shades as a new shape is coming out in March. Then I saw the new tuc$0n which is very similar so she enquired about that a few weeks ago and was told she can order one but it won't come until feb or March or she could get the top of the range for 30k but she doesn't need or want the top spec so yesterday I took her to another garage who could get one in January but the price she saw on dr1v3 th3 d3al said she could get the exact same car for 22k and the dealership said 24.5 was their best offer.

    My oh worls at n1$$an so gets a decent discount so we popped in just to see about price and they can do the top of the range for 23.5k so she doesn't know what to do now. She really liked the two Korean cars and how they drove whereas she's not driven the Japanese one yet - I don't think she'll like the drive as much but it's 1k cheaper, she can get it this month and because the guys at the dealership know me they said they'd give her a car today until hers arrives if she orders one because it was me... The service at n1$$an is definitely better but that could just be becajse oh works there! Oh was even surprised theyd offered to give her a car until hers came.

    Wonder what decision she'll make!

    Hubby said he would take the boy to football, so I'm staying out and catching up on the laundry. I did not do it yesterday so have the school uniforms to do.

    Beef joint is in the slow cooker, so think today calls for milling about the house doing not a lot apart from laundry. Tidying done

    The yard needs doing for obvious reasons as a dog owner but I've done that the last few weeks so oh can stop being so lazy and do it himself. Ozzy knocked a window pane over in it too yesterday so the glass needs clearing up too

    Morning all.
    Got a stinking cold. Been taking tablets the last 2 days for it

    Don't want to move today. Being in a house with OHs family is slowly grinding me to a halt. I feel so uncomfortable with them at the moment.

    We're going to see a house later today. Hope it's nice :) got a meeting with mortgage advisor on Monday 14th too. Very exciting but it's a big thing to deal with x

    Back from the dentist, he was OK, didn't tell me off too much as he could see I didn't want to be there. Even had a laugh about me turning up drunk for my extraction!
    He wasn't best pleased about me wanting a sedation though. I just couldn't sit through it on local I have had a bad experience before, plus his estimate was £125 sedation and £90 local.... Just need to arrange it.
