Morning all
Slept awful again last night. Really do not know what's up with me. Changed the setting in my f!tb!t for my sleep pattern as it never actually showed how I really slept. Now it has, I managed just under four hours last night and that's been pretty much the norm for me, specially since I finished the nights last week. Today will most likely consist of mooching around the house doing this and that if I can be bothered.
Hope everyone else is good though,

Morning everyone
GF, hope your sleep pattern starts to settle and you can get some better sleep soon.
First day back at work after a week off for me, just hope there's something to do as we've been very quiet recently.
Hope you all have a good Monday xx

So do I, hopefully my body will be so exhausted I will sleep. I had a lay in Saturday morning, but I was still awake loads in the night, that was even taking my tablets I use for nights, that's why I slept in as it made me groggy.
Kids all gone off to school. May go back to bed.

Feel exhausted this morning, weekend went past in a flash! We ended up going down to Surrey yesterday as hubby's nan is in hospital. She had a bad fall on Thursday and broke her hip and bruised her face really badly, my MIL was really worried about her Saturday night as she took a turn for the worse and had to have two blood transfusions. Because she was so upset and worried we thought we'd better go down and see her/support MIL, but she looked a lot better yesterday and is now stable.
Just causally sitting t my desk eating my breakfast cause I woke up late. It's so foggy round here today, however I am loving the fact a lot of the trees are a beautiful golden colour. Bonfire night this weekend as well so excited :)

Hope hubby's nan is on the mend Flossie.
I went back to bed, I laid there, could not sleep so got showered, need to pop to the shop and get sweeties for the kids tonight, plus I need a few bits anyway. Get that, then home and think a cuppa and my book is needed.

I already know 4 people with a birthday on bonfire night haha it is such a good night though I always think its one of the last nights you can stay outside for so long before it drops really cold.
CommentAuthorGlitterfairy
Not many sweets left at the shop but got enough.
Just waiting on th laundry to finish, might put it on the line as seems an ok day but it might also not dry properly as the ground is a tad damp.

Hi all. Happy Halloween! We are off to the fun fair today then Halloween markets then parade and fireworks. Looking forward to it. Hubby's van is in garage today AGAIN. Sick of it. Plus he got his renewal in for insurance and it's gone up so much. That's all we need. Stressing over money as it is!! On a more positive note I felt baby moving about this morning for the first time. Forgot what a lovely feeling it is!!
Hope your hubby's nan is feeling better soon Flossie

Eugh hate Halloween. I grew two ghost pumpkins in the garden this year but because it was fun not because it was Halloween related. I hate the mess from carving them though so I might just drew faces on them :)

Danielle, be cheeky and ask what discounts they will give before you waste time going elsewhere only for them to match it. I had that last year, I wasted my time searching as my insurance increased so much, I got it down to £200 less than my insurers quoted me, when I called back they said to me they'd look at the discounts I could get and suddenly they could match the quote I found. So this year, when they called I said straight to them, 'before I waste my time and your time, what discounts are you going to give me' suddenly again my premium reduced from the quote they had at the start of the conversation.
I don't mind Halloween, comes from having so many kids I suppose. I was never allowed to trick or treat when I grew up, my mum did not allow it. Always get pumpkins and stick them in the window so people know to call. When I've taken the kids out we have only called on houses that have pumpkins or something Halloween related on show,

Tried to get a nap in, was dozing off nicely and the towels in the drier finished and the bleeping woke me from it. Suppose it's a good thing really as hopefully I will sleep tonight,
Had loads of shifts changed, a colleague asked if I could do her late on Saturday if she does my early today, I said yeah (a late is an extra hour plus it's weekend pay), then she asked to do my early on Sunday coming if I do her early Thursday next week, I said yep, now I've been asked by a lead to do Sunday night instead of my breastfeeding study day!mixed shifts, hope I'm more with it come then.
Had to go through my bras today as got many that are now too big! Some are good ones as well,

Evening. Was a long day at work. Working over today and tomorrow but getting paid overtime for the first time in my life so not that bad!
We get sweets for the kids but that's it. Printed a pumpkin for the window. Kids around here are good and only go to places where there is one so they don't upset the elderly or people who don't want to. I took it down about 8:30ish in case I got any older kids after free sweets though

Evening all. GF he rang up today and managed to reduce it by 180 but it's still up from last year. The girl said it's because rates have went up so everyone's insurance has went up. Expecting car to go up now too.
Had a lovely day. Me, hubby and my mum took LO to the. Fun fair he loved it. Then we had Chinese for dinner then off to the parade and fireworks. LO loved it but then got fed up as if was a lot of waiting about for him. It was so cold too so we headed on before it was over. I also got some nice new maternity jeans and a coat today. LO has been toilet trained since Feb (he turned 3 sept past) but has still been wearing a pull up at night. This past couple of mornings he's been dry so I've left it off tonight. Hopefully it's successful and I'm not up changing sheets in the middle of the night!!

Morning all
Had a brilliant weekend in Amsterdam. We got to the hotel and they'd upgraded us to a suite bar in the room, super king bed, shower and a bath.
Went to the dungeons sat night for the Halloween special but we didn't think much to it. Wasn't scary at all. We went on a canal cruise to see all the sights and then got off at the station to have a walk around the town and the red light district. Some of the women are so pretty.
Had a chilled Sunday night in a bar and then the taxi picked us up at 12 yesterday to take us to the airport.
LO loved staying with in laws. He didn't want to stay at home last night. He finally nodded off about 7pm
Dropped him off at nursery this morning. Put a wash load on and now time for a shower

Sounds like you had a fab time Mrs Wade :)
Just ready for the new work day with my usual morning coffee, spending the afternoon off tomorrow so I can see my best friend and take her to try on some bridesmaid dresses.
Did have to chase our rabbit back in his room this morning crafty little devil has figured out how to open the door :0
Have a good day everyone :)

We only had one pair of children for Trick or Treat last night. I'm now resisting the chocolates as I have loads of weight to lose, and if I have one chocolate I'll have loads. The night before last Joseph did really well, he slept through from 7:40 to 6:00. No such luck last night, he woke at 11:30 and was up for an hour, then again at 4:00 until 5:30, then again at 6:30. Trying to get him to nap now, that doesn't happen easily.
30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.

I know how you feel about insurance companies Danielle, OH insurance was just taken out of my bank account without asking when its his name on the policy not mine. I could scream down the phone at them right now.

Afternoon all
Had a study day to morning, first part was fire training, I asked if I needed to be there as I done my fie warden training in June and he said nope not really, but I done it anyhoo, but he told me to be quiet when he asked questions. Fortunately when it came to demonstrating the fire extinguishers I got praised on how well I controlled them. Haha. We then had resus training after that and then a mix.
Really need the gym tonight though to let off steam.

Hubby's van was still in garage for good part of the day so he helped me clean. We got a real good clean done. Feels good now. He even did the windows inside and out. Back hurts now so he's going to chippy for tea. Can't wait to sit down and chill

Quite chilly here this morning, but sun is shining.
Need to do some shopping today, got today and tomorrow off and then two long days in a row so won't be around to sort food then. Need to get something I can put in the slow cooker for when I am at work.
Tired today still, sleep has got a little better but not brilliant.

I was really tired this morning as well. Then just before the kids went off to school, I made a sarnie for my daughter and started cleaning up in the kitchen, now all I need to do is Hoover up and I'm done. Don't even think there is much laundry for me to do either. Meeting up with a friend today for a cuppa. Think hubby thought I would go to him at lunchtime and take his lunch but I made it when I got up this morning. It was nice in the summer going down there and sitting in the sun, but now it's getting a tad chilly to be doing that.

What chilly but beautiful morning it is. I love seeing the frost on the grass but not too keen on the cold made my OH laugh this morning when I put my scarf, hat, gloves and earmuffs on and said I'm ready for work. Only left the house with the scarf in the end.

Beautiful weather in Cardiff today. If it wasn't for all the autumn leaves it could easily be early spring. I went for a long walk through the park after M0nkey Mus1c as Joseph had a long sleep, I ended up taking my coat off.

How are you Jen? Have you started baby shopping yet? I've picked up some sleep suits, vests, hats and a blanket. Couldn't help myself lol thankfully we don't need baby of the big items as we have them from first born

Sorry Emily, he's a builder, I did end up going to see him but we all sat indoors as the extension has been done.
Had an ok sleep last night, woke up about 5am though but only woke about once between going to bed until then. Got body pump this morning and then a bit of shopping. Then this evening some friends are having a bonfire so we are heading down there for some yummy soup and bread. Would normally have a few drinks with them but I have a long day tomorrow at work.

Morning ladies
Was in Fareham yesterday for a team meeting, was a good and productive day and my colleague came down from Scotland which was nice. Boss took us out for lunch at H@rv3st3r as a birthday treat for me/early Christmas dinner as my colleague won't be coming down from Scotland again before crimbo.
Just made an appointment with the mortgage advisor for Monday afternoon to start the formal mortgage application... Really nervous!!! I've had a DIP but the formal process scares me with all the affordability factors etc... fingers crossed. If all goes well the aim is to exchange contracts before Christmas and move in January.

Hey Danielle, we had a bit of a shopping spree at the baby show 2 weeks ago, he is our first so we literally had nothing. We've ordered pram, car seat and nursery furniture. Just started picking up sleepsuits, vests etc quite recently, it's looking like he will be a big baby so trying not to get too much tiny stuff! We've also got some time off next week to paint the nursery which is both terrifying and exciting. Sorry if I've asked before but when are you due?
I think I must have missed something Flossie, did not realize you were about to buy a place! How exciting!
Our perfect day - 08.08.15 <3
CommentAuthorFlossie
Yeah it's been going on for the past couple of months Jenn, I'm trying not to get too excited cos I'm so worried about the mortgage going through! It's all having to be in my name as hubby hasn't been self-employed for long enough for his earnings to be taken into account. It is absolutely affordable as our mortgage payments would be about £200 less a month than our rent, but until I have a formal mortgage offer in black and white I'm trying not to think about it too much. My mum and her boyfriend are buying a house together and we want to buy his house. :)

How does it work with a mortgage just in your name? A friend of mine did that and her partner had to sign a letter to say he had no interest in the property or something?

CommentAuthorFlossie
Hubby wouldn't be named on the legal documents at all - I've been told that because he wouldn't be on the mortgage, he can't be a named owner of the house anyway. The fact we are married I guess means he is entitled to half anyway if we were to ever divorce so that's his form of security.

Flossie I used to live in fareham. Was it the harvester around the corner from the train station? If it's still there that is.
Had an awesome pump class today. My toe is finally on the mend so not so bad when I do lunges, and upped my weights a little on one track. Popped to m@t@l@n to get some shoes for when I'm in community and a couple of long sleeved tops as seem to be lacking them, gone to the shop and got some groceries in as well. All sorted for the next couple of days.
