Had a lovely long walk to the bank today to bank some of Mark's wages into my account for the bills. Marena picked up a load of leaves on the way back, to make a picture with as I promised her that she could do 'cutting and sticking' pictures today. She's currently lining them up on the floor along with the 2 pinecones we found. She's quite methodical really, she does the same with her cars.

I have to ring up the nursery (before I forget to do it), as they claimed back money from me because Early Years had overpaid the other nursery she goes to, blah blah blah, huge cock up, but I'm owed around £250 for the pleasure.

On the OU front, still haven't heard back from them yet, I sent the financial support forms back over 2 weeks ago. I appreciate that they may not have processed it yet, but a confirmation that they've received it would of been nice.

Everything's ticking along nicely at the moment, and is 'normal'.

I like it that way.
