Evening all, It's getting late and I totally meant to write this post last night but you know what it is like, sometimes time just runs away.
I was tempted not to bother with this post but Becky had emailed me earlier to say she has a bit of an emergency and won't be hosting R2BC this week and seeing as I am sat here n a fug, feeling very grumpy, of course what I need to do is focus on the positives.
So here are my positives -
1. We just had an amazing family holiday in Spain and I had a wonderful time and not only that but as soon as school is out in about 5 weeks I'll be off to Bournemouth with my parents and the kids for another holiday. I'm a lucky girl.
2. I went to JJ's parents evening tonight following his report we received last week and there were no surprises there. He is a super bright boy, with a great future ahead. He just needs to stop rushing, put a bit more effort into homework and work on his empathy/ kindness. I need to set him some challenges over the summer months to help with this, do shout if you have any ideas!
3. I'm off to the food bank tomorrow to volunteer and I always enjoy helping there. I am thankful that I am not in the position to need the help and grateful that I can do a small bit to make someones day just a bit brighter.
4. Hubby and I are off to see Totally Tina on Saturday night. This is a Tina Turner tribute act and we expect it to be uber cheesy but Hubby and I love a bit of Tina and we will be singing along I am sure.
5. All my outstanding invoices have been paid. This has been a good week and for five minutes my bank balance will look healthy, until I pay for PGL for the girls.
6. Monday I am off to Portsmouth with most of the people who live in my community, I am expecting a fab day with my mate Annie and we are going to be exploring the parts of the Historic Dockyard that I didn't get round to seeing when we were there in May.
and that will do. I am now feeling much more cheery and less grumpy, so R2BC has worked its magic and now I am off to snooze as I am a tried Mich!
R2BC will be back with Becky at Lakes Single Mum for the rest of June and then back over with me in July.
