    Hi everybody

    I've had a lovely but naughty afternoon :j Took a friend shopping and then went for something to eat, and bought a pair of shoes :o

    Home now, tired and happy :D

    Tomorrow I am planning on buying a new dress and shoes for a wedding I am going to in a few weeks.
    I was feeling kinda guilty about actually spending money and not looking forward to putting it in my diary. Also taking my Mum out for lunch, think she deserves it :)

    Have a wedding next Friday and wearing an old dress (worn twice before :rolleyes:) so shoe purchase is justified :j

    Loving the sound of the shoes :D
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Shoe Gal I think you should have a shoe challenge next year like Lula's clothes challenge this year? Surely you have a pair of shoes in each colour/style to keep you going :confused:

    Did you manage to get your early night lastnight? I've been telling myself I'm giong to have an early night but I still haven't managed to get to bed before 2:30am yet :mad: I am an absolute facebook/MSE/LloydsTSB addict!!
    When my laptop wasn't working I was in bed for half 10 each night reading my book and actually feeling alive when I woke up for work of a morning!
