it's day 33 and the time is whizzing by!
My thoughts keep turning to the return to school and it dawned on me that this will be the cheapest year for uniform that we've had for donkeys years!
Only 2 to buy actual 'uniform' for this year...and as we kept up to date with bits last year it will be mainly shoes and coats for this year.
We've had some shocking expense in previous years...over £200 on shoes alone (4pairs of school shoes, PE shoes, hockey shoes, football shoes etc...it soon adds up).
That was the year Bob decided NOT to look at the bank statement for that month...there is only so much one mans heart and wallet can take :)
My mojo has been in overdrive up till this afternoon when it went into hiding, I've given the house a good start on a Autumn clean; tidied bits that have been left to slide during the holidays, washed walls down, finished small DIY bits that have been on the to do list for too long, tidied the garden, stripped beds and turned mattresses, cleaned windows so when the sun rays peek out from behind the clouds we get the full benefit...and manage to feed, clothe, bathe, entertain, taxi, counsel and of course LOVE the brood that is my family.
Keeping reasonably calm, drinking tea and carrying on

Thanks for popping by...I love to hear from you and really appreciate you taking the time.
I am sorry about having to ask you to prove you're not a robot but for some reason I am having a LOT of spam nowadays {and we're not talking fritters!}
