I have an odd question for you....What do you do on a night, after the kids have gone to bed?Mr Frugal is a bit of a computer geek which means that four or five nights a week, as soon as the kids have gone to bed, he'll turn on his computer and that'll be the last I see of him until about ten o clock time. We have one night a week where we snuggle on the settee and catch up on TV and one date night a week where laptops, mobiles, TV and children are banned.We used to get a babysitter and go out on date night but now that we're watching the pennies a bit more, we just put the kids … [Read more...]

Back on the Worry Rollercoaster….
Remember me telling you that Life was good again after last months hospital appointment with Miss Frugal? Well, after another hospital appointment, the Doctor is now not so certain that it's nothing serious and has decided that we need to take her for a brain scan (I think it's called an MRI scan) so that we can rule out the 'big things'. After last months visit, I was much more relaxed taking her this time, I thought it was more of a formality as the doctor told us at the end of the last visit that you often never find out what's behind child dizziness and that she was just going to … [Read more...]
