    Yeah I thought it was good, it hasn't got great reviews but I enjoyed it.

    I am extremely broody Maria! Hopefully won't be long before I can have one of my own.

    Glad to hear you enjoyed Alice in Wonderland Wendz. I keep wondering whether to go and see it or not.

    Aww I bet it was lovely having a cuddle with your friends newborn baby. I'm really broody at the moment too but now is not the right time for us to have a baby so must wait until we are in a better place financially. It must be lovely knowing it won't be long for you until you can have one though :)

    Well I have just been having a look at the finances, don't look too good. This I am taking my Mum for lunch, nowhere expensive and then I am going for a pub meal sat evening with friends. Aways something to spend my money! I am sure I will get by on the money I have left but it does panic me a bit. Probably a good thing though and will hopefully not spend on anything I don't need to.

    Not much else to report really. We went to Asda tonight and we didn't spend much which is good. I have also done all the ironing tonight, it won't all fit in the wardrobe though! OH has an unbelievable amount of clothes, he shares my wardrobe and has another little one.

    well done on getting all the ironing done Wendz and on not spending too much at the supermarket.

    I'm sure you will be ok for money this month if you budget and try not to spend too much. You sound like your very good with money.

    Well it has been another busy day at work. I did yoga at lunch again, which was good but it means I don't have any time to do anything! I am going to be aching tomorrow!

    Tomorrow I am going down to Bournemouth to present to my old course at uni (well the present students there) about our company and try and encourage people to apply. I need to practice my presentation tonight. If anyone gets a job after then I get £250 for each one so I need to make it sound as good as possible. The extra money would be great.

    Thanks Hayley for your comment.I am feeling a lot better about my money now. I have took out some for the week and put it in my purse and I am going to stick to it.

    That's a great incentive! Hopefully at least one person will get a job, and good luck with the presentation.
