    Doh, I caved in and got a toffee crisp and some cheddars from the macine. :o Bit of a slip up there.

    O well, at least had my cup of tea now and into the afternoon. :j

    It's very quiet at work so might take the chance to do some comps this afternoon.

    I'm exactly the same, plus I'm trying to lose a few pounds in weight!! :rolleyes:


    Well today has been ok so far. Only spent bus fare and 70p on a big cup of tea at work to wake me up....I slept in so no time for tea at home which is silly of me. Oh well, 70p I guess is not so bad. I won't be spending anything else today. Got a big pasta lunch for lunch from the leftovers from dinner last night. And if I'm even tempted to go grab something unhealthy from the machine I have grapes, banana and watermelon as backup snacks if I get peckish this afternoon.

    Some money came through from paypal today after I sold a game on ebay so little bit extra cash. We went to Tesco last night to get some food but OH paid. ;)

    I have just ordered my student discount card from where I work. I'm not a student, havent been for years but I work in a University so if I pay £10 for the card I then get all the discounts the students get so will definitly be worth it. Looking forward to picking it up soon! Bonus! :T

    Am only doing afternoon at work today so had the morning at home. Have had my lunch and cup of tea so all set. Got fruits in work to snack on in the afternoon.

    Going to have another NSD today apart from bus travel so pleased with that. Got to start thinking about decorating my room at home so it's all nice and ready to move in October.

    Ooooo I go away in 3 weeks exactly today. Can't wait!! Hopefully will have some left from this months budget to keep me going on holiday.

    Whoops just noiticed the time, better go get ready to leave!

    Grr, am a little annoyedas the water machine at work is faulty so I had to buy two bottles of water for this afternoon costing £1.50. So much for a NSD :(

    And boyfriend has just rung me up saying he has barely enough money to get through the rest of the month with car tax. Argh! I guess we are having VERY cheap dinners for the next couple of weeks!

    Rung my mum up and she's making us dinner tonight. ;)

    We going to get the bus there and back to save some petrol.

    I've done some comps this afternoon which is rare for me, I get so bored doing them.

    Done some surveys to but I quite like doing them.

    Wooohoooo it's the weekend. :D

    Had a lovely time at mums last night, she knows we are struggling this month so she bought us a lovely chinese takeaway, yum yum. Thanks mum! :j

    Having a day at home today with the OH. We have been sorting through all our paperwork today and thrown alot of rubbish away. I'm trying to get rid of anything I don't need so less stuff to move and my room is small at home so need to de clutter.

    OH is going to see his mum tommorow so I'm going round my mums. Dad said we can start painting my room so looking forward to getting started on that.

    I hate being in limbo. I hate waiting. I'm the most impatient person ever. When I know what I want to do I want to do it. But we have to be here till October which is annoying. Ah well, holiday in 3 weeks! I'll have to head to Primark and get some holiday wear.

    It sounds like a good day then, just a shame you can't move out now, will save you so much money. So nice of your family to let you move back and decorate your room. Have you decided how you'd like it?

    Where you off to on your hols? Primark is so good for bargains!

    Hi Hayley. :D

    I would love to move out asap. The estate agent is going to give me a ring on Monday to discuss it so maybe we can get out earlier if they find someone?

    Yeah, my mum and dad are being really good about it. My mum can't wait to have another girl to talk to! She lives with my dad and brother currently. lol

    I'm going to be doing it all white but one wall a feature wall with wallpaper which is white with black flower pattern on it. So a black and white themed bedroom is the plan which is very different for me. I can't wait to get started tommorow!

    Going to Sorrento, Italy. I've been there before and it is beautiful. I love Italy and the food!! :o Yeah, going to shop in Primark and will take a look in our big Tesco's for any cheap clothes.

    I shall pop over to your diary, see how you are. x

    What would I do without my parents? They are going to take me for lunch today. :D

    We are going to get started with the painting soon. Gotta take a trip to B&Q first.
