Hey everyone.
I'm back... I had a lovely relaxing weekend away from it all at one of OHs friends houses. it was a cheap weekend for me all in. I am now back at work and in a bad mood though... it's take too long to explain so lets just move onto my list.
today I have/will
-forget to put my lunch in my bag so have to pay for something out of the vending machines... ARGH!!
- do my second shift with Samaritans (saving electricity in the flat)
- tidy up a bit before heading out tonight
- not loose the rag and get myself fired (that wouldn't be very money saving now, would it?
- read my library book so I can have it finished before it is due back on 11th.
- check banking - all as expected
Have a good day everyone,
See you all again tomorrow.
