Cinnys Spending Diary - Take 2

Cinny91

I'd email that Kaz person people keep on talking about. Or someone from the website, might just be a glitch? At least you have enough for you bookset!

Yep, think I'm going to leave him to sulk now, and focus on something much more important like the fact I'm going actual clothes shopping tomorrow. You can tell I've slashed my spending when I'm getting excited over buying a couple basic tops from Primarni!

The vouchers can soemtimes take all day to come through so don't panic yet, haven't had mine either.

Iw ill give it a go at Boots and see what happens, is for my Grandmas christmas pressie. She wants some anti wrinkle cream (a bit too late if you ask me haha). Won't be too bad if I get the 5 pounds voucher off anyway.

Hahaha, you meanie! Yeah I'll see what happens with the voucher, I might be imagining the points reduction as it was late last night and I was tired and had a glass of vino in my hand!

Ooh, clothes shopping Cinny! If I'm careful with my money for week or so I might have enough at the end of the month for a pair of little ankle boots or something... :j

Not feeling too chipper this morning

OH fell out with me and I'm not 100% sure why, he's been having major moodswings recently though and I'm getting sick of it. I thought I was meant to be the hormonal teenager! He barely spoke a word to me all morning and when he left just said 'Bye then' and got in his car. He never leaves without saying a proper Goodbye though, like never ever! So I'm feeling really rotten and don't know what I've done Urgh! Not going to bother texting him today though, boy can stew!

I wouldn't worry Cinny, everyone gets a bit stroppy sometimes, and 99% of the time its nothing to do with your partner, and he might say sorry later, and he might not, but so long as hes snapped out of it and makes it clear in his actions it was nothing to do with you (this is more likely than not just natural, not trying to make it up to you, ie big hug, joking with you etc), then I'd try to let it go. Ofc if his mood swings all the time are getting to you, have a word and ask whats bothering him and is there is anything you can do to sort it.

Just got a text from him though and thought 'Oo, he's saying sorry!' all it said was 'Fifty pounds and the car was filled with diesel' I haven't a clue what he's on about!

Just a thought (and because I always need to try and work out cryptic clues), could this be anything to do with your £50 a week budget?!
Maybe he's saying if that's what it takes to fill the car, you need more than £50! Hope he reveals all later . Sorry mind in the gutter there!

I thought it was more him just moping how much it costs him to fill the car. But he chooses to run one, and it costs me £68 to fill mine and that lasts a stunning 6 days!

Wow Dinah I would be skint, then again I only use my car at weekends as I have to use tubes the rest of the week. I do tend to travel a lot at the weekend though.

I went to Boots, couldn't use the points but used teh voucher and got another that I might use on OHs Mums present.

Its a big part of our budget to be honest. This month I think we might run out of petrol before we get paid :-s

I am hoping my petrol lasts me for my next two trips home as they are both before payday. I usually pay for all my petrol myself as is my car and it is usually me wanting to go home but i got OH to pay half of the tank i have at the mo.

I was thinking that! But then I thought 'I hope he isn't expecting me to fill his car up every week!' Still no update on what that was about - but I called him after dinner and had a good knatter, he seems a lot happier now so atleast that's that sorted!

I'm an hour late with speaking to OH but I'm off to start my list
