    Hehe well I still haven't been on this weekend, no motivation!

    Managed to do all my list except dooyoo. Need to sort out my Mums photos but I have some to choose from now to do her calender.

    Not much to report really. I haven't been doing much moneymaking apart from doing scratchies and surveys. Will get back into doing it more in Jan I think. I am just tired when I get home from work and want to watch a dvd or something rather than write reviews etc.

    Still need to do my Mums calender, need my sister to help me but she has been staying at her bfs. Hopefully can do it tonight.

    Well the not much moneymaking is going OK as I won a fiver on the free scratchie today so could withdraw. That is another tenner for my Dad when I get it.

    I have been watching all the Kirsties Homemade Christmasses this week and she made some lovely stuff, all would cost a fair bit to make though I think. We were planning on going to the shops today to finish the xmas shopping but OH wasn't feeling well. I have managed to do my Mums calandar though, hopefully that will turn out OK!

    Have got a fun weekend planned which I am looking forward to. Tomorrow we have got some work drinks at lunch and then four of us are getting taken out for a thai meal after work and to see Jimmy Carr. Then Saturday my best friend from uni is down in London so will be doing some shopping then we are off on a night out with a few others.

    Lee Evans is great, we went to see him last year. Jimmy Carr was good, we had a nice meal first although was a bit rushed and we all had to sneak in late. Thankfully we were up at the top and not down the front , could have been embarassing.

    Last night we went on a night out, we went to a couple of really pretentious clubs but luckilly the girl we were with does events there and got us free drinks, I bought one and was ten pounds eek! Managed not to spend too much though in total. Am feeling a bit tired and ill now.

    I won another fiver on the scratchie this morning, I always get two in a week and then none for ages is so random. At least I am not far from withdrawing again.

    As I said I am not feeling so great after the drinking so am just chilling out watching Home Alone this afternoon and then am making a roast a bit later.

    A glass of wine, all the clubs in London are such a rip off! Good job we had the free drinks too.
