I've done it - my first weekend of the year with the monkeys at their Dad's and I made no plans - I proved to myself that a quiet weekend in is not the end of the world that my own company is not too bad, I even did it without wine (I think I was turning into a bit of a lush at the end of last year ops)
So today I did the weekly shop - and after going through the cupboards and writing a meal plan I spent the grand total of £24.98 - unbelievable, even more unbelievable if I stick to the plan and don't crack and give kids cheese on toast after nursery one night.
After trying S's homemade soda bread on New Years Day I made some myself today - it looks ok just waiting to see what it tastes like when I have some with jam for supper.
Ironing pile has gone down, garage has never been so organised so maybe not the most exciting weekend but I really feel like I've achieved something -which can only be a good thing.
Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day - but whatever happens I get the monkeys home and for that I cannot wait
Update: soda bread was so yummy it's added to my regular receipe list
