Mum's New Car.

Gawd, what a day. I don't feel like I've sat down from the minute I got up this morning. First thing I took Mum to pick up her new car - it's lovely. It's a 12 months old Seat Ibiza, Diesel 1.9 with only 14,000kms on the clock. She's chuffed to bit with it and I'm pleased for her. She hasn't been able to drive the Rav 4 for months now because Hans children threatened to call the Guardia Civil if she drove it and have her charged with auto theft - WTF?? Mum and Hans paid over 30k (euros) for it a couple of years and went halves on it. Mum paid for a few extras as a present for Hans (it was close to his birthday) but they put the car in his name as you can only have one owner on the log book. Because there wasn't any mention of the car in Hans' will, it will be given to his children unless Mum can prove she paid for half of it (which she can't). Those people are just evil...what goes around comes around, I hope. Anyway, we've got her the car sorted and she's got her independence back! She's just got to work up the courage to start driving in it herself now, lol! After that I left the kids with Mum and went to WW where I discovered that I lost 2.2kgs (5lbs) over the past few weeks! I was SO CHUFFED! I'm almost glad that I had that sickness and diahrea bug now! So that's 5kgs since I started. Just another 25kg to go then!


Had loads of other stuff to do too and only got home about an hour or so ago. It's the Los Reyes (3 kings - Spanish equivalent of Santa) procession tonight but I couldn't take Lily as her cough is so bad. I let her choose a DVD from the video shop and have popcorn and oreos here instead. I do feel like she misses out on so much because of her bad chest.


I've been invited out tomorrow night as there's a leaving do for one of the girls that I met at the English run toddler group that I take Paddy to.


I'm planning on going to bed a soon as I've finished this. I'll give Paddy a huge boob juice feed in the hope that he'll sleep a little longer and I'll have a read for an hour, then try and catch up on some zeds!


I'm aching a bit today as it was back to yoga yesterday after the CHritmas break, thank God! Roll on the next class on Monday!
