i'm ill blah!
got sent home from work yesterday cause i was sick!
i am feeling alot better today, but still couldn't go into work, because i work with food am not allowed to work until 48hours after being sick.
so have missed out on a 10 hour shift today...not that i'm complaining! lol

went into town with my mum and got the last of my christmas pressies.
well i still need to get my grandpa some chocolates, but can get them in work on sunday!

I'm doing pretty well money wise, usually all my money from my wages and student loan would have been gone by now, but i still have:
£75 in my purse
£50 in my bank
£25 in savings account

plus £24 in my £2 sealed jar
and £12 odds in my magical counting jar in silver!

yay me!

Also my when i met my mum in town she had a MAC bag!! eeek dunno what she got me from there, but i'm sooo happy i know i have some Mac goodies for Christmas, i've been having make up withdrawal symptoms lol!

You are doing really well. You will love the Mac stuff from your mum even more than if you had bought t yourself.

Had a bit of a spending spree today, lol!
Went into town with my mum and my little brother to get last minute Christmas pressies!
Treated them both to lunch in China Buffet King, got my brother a cardi and a hoody from Primark! He's 11, and fits into a mens small! omg!
they are a bit big for him, but he likes them, most kids clothes are too small for him, as he i really tall for his age, honestly he passes for 15 sometimes!

He also managed to con me out of about £40! He wanted to buy my mum and his dad, and me pressents! lol

Got myself some books in Borders, they were 3 for 2, so he got the free one!
And i also got myself a shirt and a bag in Primark.

Still have £100 left, and my mum owes me £22, she had no money left but needed books in Borders for pressents for my step-dad, so out came my card again!
