  • I'm going on my work's do this evening and am dreading it, they're all young and trendy, it's gonna be like going out with Girl's Aloud, not to mention costing a bleeding fortune! Oh well, at least it's my one and only Xmas night out over the festive period but I wish I was at home watching X-Factor and Strictly with my hubby.

    Good morning All! Hope you all had a good weekend?:j

    Well, yesterday was a little bit of crimbo shopping and then lunch and the afternoon at my OH's sisters. Was ok! ;)

    Will have to buy lunch today!! Had a bit of a migraine last night, but despite feeling sick and just wanting to go to sleep, I managed to get all the work clothes ironed for this morning. I then toddled off to bed leaving my OH to make sandwiches for work. Needless to say I didn't get up early this morning to check (bed is preferable to early mornings!) and on my way out the door, swung open the fridge to find........ nothing! So he is responsible for my nonNSD today :rolleyes: Ho-hum!

    Well I did have a NSD on Sat so I 'spose all is not lost!

  • Hey Nats

    Apologies for not checking in earlier- guess what I’ve actually been working! :eek: :rotfl:

    Naughty naughty OH for not making you sandwiches too… that or he took yours as well in a non-awake state?!?! :rolleyes:

    Well done on the NSD Saturday… makes up for lunch today. And hope the migraine has properly left you now!!! They’re not nice things by all accounts – only had one once.

    My weekend was good thank you – very very busy but good. Unfortunately didn’t have any NSD’s but this weekend was known about in advance. I was however very MSE and me & b/f got oyster cards to travel around London rather than buy a travel ticket like I normally would have. Saved us a fortune!!

    Anyways will check in again later when I can write properly!!

    Emms x


    P.S No knowledge on amazon from me I'm afraid :o

    Right - I am due to go home in a few minutes, so thought I would make the time go just a little quicker and write a note on here!!:rotfl:

    Emms - thanks for dropping by - glad you managed to do some work today!!! My head is still muzzy, but I should be able to drive in a straight line on the way home! ;) Sounds like you had a very MSE weekend even if there were no NSD.

    Well - as I mentioned earlier my OH kiboshed my NSD and lunch cost me £1.53:eek: Not impressed - might just forget to cook him dinner tonight and see what he thinks to that :rotfl: Bless him:rolleyes:

    I forgot my diary today, which has got everything in it - and I've felt a bit lost with out it!

    Since starting my diary on here, I made my first payment to my Egg Loan today £238 so this has gone on my signature towards my xmas 09 challenge. I need to locate an addition £303.66 a month if I am going to hit target!! Hmmmm - anyone happen to have a spare bank vault key lieing around?:rotfl:

    Well, thats home time for me; tonight I am going to ......

    try and get rid of my headache
    maybe wrap some presents
    maybe write the last 3rd of my cards
    buy some pressies online (cashback if best option of course!)
    MAKE MY OWN SANDWICHES FOR TOMORROW - YOU JUST CANT RELY ON ANYONE!!

    Have a great evening everyone and I'll see you all tomorrow!!:T

    Ok confession time!!:rolleyes:

    I have just remembered what I did last night (but its not all my fault!!)

    Last night I ordered some odds and sods off Amazon. Great - nice and cheap and here in time for crimbo. (so far so good right?)

    I wanted to log a different card to my account and in the past it has asked me which card I would like to use (there has always been 2 or 3 logged). However, last night I went all the way through, completed checkout and order was confirmed - with no reference to the card I wanted to use.

    B*GGER!! :mad: £34.20 has been charged to my switch card!!! There is money in there to cover it as I have been reserving £40 a week - but this is not what I planned!!!!


    HEY HO:confused: what a numpty I am!!!

    Off to complete the crimbo shopping today! Don't know when I'll be back - loads to do!!!

    Have a great day yourself!!
