LOL ISOM. I am hoping to have a busy Christmas, i just love visiting..don't know why but i get a kick out of it. So am, is spent opening pressies and natter, then dinner and visiting. We usually have my gran at Christmas as well.
Mate isn't flooded out yet, has her flood doors on and fingers crossed. Stuff has been moved upstairs so we are just waiting now.
Had a bit of a spend today as DD2 needed a coat with a hood on bit longer than the one she tries to get away with but ends up freezing Iykwim. So £30 spent in Asda, and a bit of food shopping as well.
Have also taken her for her flu jab, so been quite busy today, sat down with a brew for 5 mins and a catch up as didn't manage everyone yesterday. Money wise have inputted mystery shop and should get £13 back for that and another one on Sunday. Have a few items which were given to us a while ago which am thinking of taking to auction for valuation, and have been sent an email saying i qualify for cheapo listing on fleabay..so all on the up. Will probably be very neutral for Christmas.
Have also done balance transfers, so can relax on those for a bit...phew.
Hope you are all well.
