    Morning all, not really feeling it today, had a restless night, keep dreaming something is burrowing through my ceiling (still got noises in loft), feeling a bit icky today as well which is bad as it's appraisal day and I'm not in the mood.

    Does anyone else hate when someone calls someone, you pick up their phone and the person barks their name as in 'I want to talk to such and such'? I've had a few such calls this morning and I'm getting really peed off, they treat you like you are there to go 'fetch' the person they are after. I've worked on Reception before and I don't envy anyone who does, I'd get sacked for telling people to p*ss off! Ok, feel better now, ahhhh!

    Evening all, just home from my sister's, trying to get an outfit together for her, she sometimes listens and sometimes doesn't, anyway each to their own I guess.

    Talking of sisters, I give one of mines money each month for my car, I'm sure I gave her £30 (it's usually £40 but was a bit skint) and she said I only gave her £20, who proves who gave what. I've marked mines down, so did she! As usual I'll be the one out of pocket, I've asked for my money back as just going to put in the bank but she's not replied to my text, another pet hate of mines!!!

    Getting grumpy now so off to bed soon x

    Afternoon, well spoke to sis and it's all ok about the money, both of us are getting a bit mixed up so I have set up another savings account for my car money and will transfer money each month, if I forget then it's my fault. Will still give her my Insurance money as already paid six months then when I start saving again in October, I will put money in bank, makes sense as when she gave me my road tax money, I paid it online then promptly spent the money!

    Pay-day tomorrow but not going to be much movement on payments as have spent on Visa so won't come down as much this month, did get my 1st Aid payment though which was unexpected so will put that towards my Visa, nice one!

    Evening all,

    Not been up to posting recently, nothing exciting happening at this end, debt has not came down this month as had a 'spendy' month but hoping to counteract that next month when my overtime goes through. Should be able to make a bigger payment if the last 3 Pink tickets are paid, here's hoping. Well OH has been on standby today so sitting her on my ownsome, think might head to bed soon actually as got loads to do in the house tomorrow. Time for one last cuppa methinks, night all x

    Ok, so just lost my post, hate when that happens!

    Anyway, had a great sleep last night, no itching or scratching, not even from the loft, ha!

    Got three loads of washing to do, been hearing dripping noises from the kitchen so checked behind washing machine, all dry so goodness knows what it is. Will have breakfast and try and get caught up on some more taped tv. Got a batch of soup to make too then might need to visit supermarket for some lunch for work stuff. Last week I hardly ate anything that resembled a lunch as I was a)skint and b) couldn't be bothered trying to make anything.

    Have a great Sunday everyone, anyone??!!.......

    Morning all,

    NTBY, you did more than I did yesterday! I did do most of the washing, went to the gym, watched loads of tv and attempted to make carrot and orange soup which didn't turn out as I added too much curry powder, numpty! It's not salvageable and far too spicy, actually it's vile, so guess what's going down my loo tonight?!

    Are you sure it couldn't be salvaged? :eek: Perhaps make another match without the curry powder, and then mix them both together so the non-spicy one cools the other one down. You will probably end up with a lot of soup to freeze but better than binning it?!

    Already tried that Laura, had to make two batches as my biggest pot wasn't big enough. Made it without adding any curry but it still didn't work - looks great as well!
