    :T :T :T HURRAH!!!!!!:T :T :T

    Just worked out my debt low point for October and it is only £482.21 which means that in the last month I have spent £391.37 less than I have earned.

    I am SO chuffed!

    Coupled to that, everything went well at the hospital - no problems reported and so my next appointment is on 17th April 2009 - put it in your diaries - I WILL need reminding!!!

    Off for a well earned glass of sherry!

    Love y'all

    Hi Strumpet - brilliant news all round then. Thanks to Horace helping me out I can now send you a proper hug.:grouphug:

    Hope you achieve all your jobs for today.

    My mission this afternoon is to find a nice dress that will be suitable for day time and evening wear in a charity shop. this morning I managed to get a cowboy style outfit for DS who has a party to go to for £4.75. I got a hat which was expensive £2, jeans, denim jacket and check shirt plus a belt with a holster (no gun) and sheriffs badge all for £2.75. I am now the Queen of Charity Shops.:j

    Good news on the hospital front Strumpet, I received another appointment today for me to go to the eye hospital again on 1st December for an eye test so that I can get some new glasses, I need some reading ones:rolleyes:

    Oh yum - I adore bangers and mash with oodles of gravy and peas. Do you make your delicious sounding sausages yourself or do you get them from the butcher?

    Fiddle dee dee...I keep hitting the wrong button and everything I type vanishes:mad: Start again:

    I hope you achieve everything on your To Do List today.

    Oh and well done on spending less this month:j

    Have a great weekend.

    Hey Mrs P - why are you getting dressed up to spend your evening in a charity shop?

    Hey Horace: Sausages bought from Morrisons. Haven't got time to make my own although I do make sausage rolls from time to time.

    Will you need rmeinding about your appointment on Dec 1st?

    Strumpet

    Ps Forgot to add "Strimming the hedge" onto my to do list (although if it doesn't stop drizzling, it's going to get postponed!

    Back after a bit of stripping in the back bedroom - ooo errr missus!!!:rotfl:

    Thanks Strumpet but I won't need reminding about my appointment - the large print letter is pinned onto the kitchen noticeboard and I have already committed the appointment to memory. Time 9.30am 1st December with Miss Lamb or member of the team. Present letter Clinic Area 4. Oh heck, that means I have to get up at 6.30 and leave the house before 8:eek: I have to get two buses (I daren't take the car in case I have to have drops).

    I don't normally shop in Morrisons but I might make an exception for their sausages:D I shall take a walk there in the week (its about a mile or so from my house).

    Am supposed to be doing all sorts of jobs today - my OH is coming up from London because he is on another course up in Coventry all next week. I have just sorted out his clothes (he is allowed one drawer) and guess what he has enough for two drawers so he will have to take some home with him.

    No grizzling here, the sun is shining:j

    Well hope you and OH enjoy your time together H. I know from personal experience how hard it can be to be apart. However, after all that, I think the reason why OH and I are so committed to each other is that we have been seeing each other for 7 years but never been in each others's pockets. We both live our separate lives but spend real quality time together. We are definitely the best of friends too.

    Having said that, not friends enough for hie to get his backside over here to help with the wallpaper situation, in spite of all the effort being for HIS room when he moves in in 4 weeks!!!

    Love him!!

    Strumpet

    Ps I have been stripping for 1 hour and 15 minutes and I've done about 1/4 of the job. Not boding well for any study today is it?

    Forgot to mention that I gained another £2 in my change today so I'm up to £26 now and only £4 off my target for October!

    Hoping for NSD #4 today too - it's too cold to go out and I have stripping to do!
