Well done girls!

My positives from today:-

*Completed a job application (fingers crossed as its perfect for me)

*Got a plumber out to fix a job that's been outstanding. My OH and a neighbour have been humming and haying about the job and what to do for about 4 months - give me a few hours, I've called a plumber, job done and best of all only cost £35 all in!

*Did a mountain of dishes

*Got a phone call with some (cash in hand) childminding tomorrow for a few hours - extra pennies for me and DD to last until the end of the month.

*Wrote out a claim to Royal Mail for £34 for a recorded delivery item that wasn't delivered

*Remembered to phone and change my dentist appointment

Quite a good day!

Ahhhh Tilly! I see you work on the same theory as me! If they aren't there I can't eat them, so I'd better eat them so they aren't there!!

My mum suggested putting these things in the bin :talkhand: :shakehead:

I much prefer my reasoning!

:rotfl: :rotfl:

LOL - exactly!! I have tried the putting things in the bin method before but it seems sooo wasteful :lol:

Ok, struggled today to come up with any with all that's going on! :roll:

But that is the point of this whole thread, so here we go!

* Got washings done and dried in time for the man to pick them up for ironing! (Lazy :moon: me!)

* Mhairi went to her other Gran's and I had a wee 15 mins to myself before I went to Tesco

* Bought Mhairi a nice new toy in Tesco (isn't it amazing that when they aren't with you, you want to spoil them!?!?!)

* Asked Mhairi's other Gran if she would babysit for me a week on Saturday so that I could, maybe, possibly get out for a night out, and she said yes!!!!

* So for the next 11 days my positive thought will be "I'M GETTING A NIGHT OUT!" :rotfl:

* I am going for a shower after a nice roast beef dinner!

Hope everyone else is well! :hug:

aww that sounds good :) a night out is always a good idea :)

*got my latest OU essay result and PASSED (was really scared i'd done awfully!)
*baby is 3/5 engaged!
*hospital bag is packed
*spaghetti bolog for tee was YUM
* i have strawberries
*i have custard
*i have biscuits
*i have chocolate
*i have mars bars

p.s - the negative from these last few would be 'i'm going to look like a whale even when baby is born' lol

:hug: :hug: hope you've all had good positive filled days!
 
Oooohhhh good days all round girls! Congrats on your essay BabyBee! I'm jealous of your night out Lainey!

Positives from today:-

* Got my windowboxes planted with pretty purple/violet pansies and violas - now I just have to remember to water them!

* Looked after a little girl for a friend of mine for a few hours and earnt £30 (she pays me as I can look after her DD last minute!). This £30 means we can afford to eat until the end of the month (things are tight!)

* Went for a lovely walk with DD in the sunshine

* Did 2 loads of dishes, it never stops!

* My windows got cleaned by the window cleaner so they are now nice and sparkly (on the outside anyway!)

* Made some lovely smoked haddock fishcakes for tea for OH and I and froze 6 mini ones for DD.

* I didn't lose any weight this week (on AF and hugely bloated so didn't expect to), but I didn't gain any either, which is always a plus!

* The sun shone all afternoon!

I love this thread! Without thinking about posting in it tonight, I probably wouldn't have gone for my walk or planted the windowboxes.

Well done on your pass BabyBee!!! :cheer:

Valentine, I use this thread in the same way as you, I wake up thinking "What can we do today that will be a good positive for the thread?"

Today was good -

* Mhairi is 6 months old today! :cheer:

* She ate all her porridge (good wee scots lassie!)

* I went for lunch with my mum, Mhairi and my two aunts and had a lovely meal

* My Aunt offered me her Silver Cross! The big one! Last used for my cousin 20 years ago, and even then, only used for 3 months! It's pristine, although I'm going to buy a new mattress and sun canopy for it! Can't wait to go for big long walks with it....they are sooooo easy to push because of their big wheels!

* Mhairi had breakfast, lunch AND tea today!

* I got a shower this morning

Hope everyone else has had a good day!

My positives from yesterday:-

* After a miserable start, the sun shone all afternoon, was lovely and hot

* I spent a lovely day with my close friend and her LO and had a really good chat - we both needed that.

* I did the food shopping, spent £36 something so nearly in budget.

* With above food shopping, bought 2 x books for £1 each, 1 for DD's birthday (first pressie!) and 1 to put in my presents box

* DD loved her fishcakes I made the previous day and gobbled them all up!

* I didn't come online last night apart from a quick check at 7.30pm (seem to spend 3+ hours of an evening online, a habit I am hoping to break)

* OH and I resumed 'maritial relations' after a long dry spell probably due to me actually being in bed at bedtime!

* Watched the Apprentice - love it!
