Which resort are you looking to stay at Julez? £5000 for a package for 5 is good value.

I was thinking that too lol. I got a brochure the other day and had a quick look. Roughly priced it up and for the 4 of us during summer hols, I think it was around at least the £6000+ mark and that's just basic flight & accommodation (can't remember which one) and I'm sure there'll be some kind of supplements etc etc etc etc to pay on top of that... plus spending money ... plus whatever else . We only have 3 more years to save - although I doubt we'll be able to save much as I'm sure I'll have to make a trip back to Malaysia sometime next year (my dad still hasn't seen Adam!!!) and for the 4 of us, just the summer flights come to around £3000 (taxes are £330 each at the moment - shocking!).

Just had a major drama. Emilia climbed on to the settee (thanks to the help of her sisters) and then fell headfirst off it. I saw it happen, but wasn't fast enough to catch her. I thought she had broken her neck. I swear my heart stopped beating. After a bit of crying, she is now happily crawling around. My nerves are shredded.

Ouch, so glad she's okay though

Could you perhaps do a couple of mornings on weekdays and ask your mum to pick Kyra up from pre-school for you on those days? And then maybe work a Saturday as well? I have friends who have to do that - work 2-3 mornings a week and then do a longer shift at weekends.

I would hope to earn the same or maybe a bit more.

I need to speak to my doctor as im signed off work and i want to make sure 100% well enough to go back into a work enviroment without freaking out and having panic attacks and a nervous breakdown.

I just would love to go back to work soon though.

My mum works shifts so that wouldnt work, its just so frastrating.

Have you heard/thought about becoming a mystery shopper? I have signed up to a couple of websites (which I got from GMTV or This Morning last year) and each time there are assignments in the area, they just get snapped up so quickly. Grrrr. The thing is I don't check my emails every single minute, so by the time I check, it's like 2-3 hours later and the job's gone. I have friends who did quite a few a week (this was last year - not sure how things are now) - it ranged from going into a shop to buy or ask about something (you'll get your money back if you buy) or a bank or going to a pub/restaurant to eat/drink and various other assignments. They got paid from £10 per job and I think the most one of them got paid for a job was £35.

I may do a evening course instead as i know my brother will babysit for a few hours a week.
