    Well got lots done but not all as a lovely man came round and I spent a few happy hours with him! More fun than hob scrubbing anyway!!!!

    Well I'm down to my last £, but this month I have:

    Done most of mine and my brothers Xmas shopping (And what he owes me will do the rest of my shopping)

    Given my mum £200 to save for me.

    Came in way under on my grocery shopping (again)

    So yippee!

    Snowy up here but all snug and cosy. X

    Well the flat is very clean and tidy and I am going to have a nice bath later. Had loads planned for this week but it's snowing again and it's lying a bit so may have to change some plans. Doing lunch instead of dinner with my friend tomorrow now (unless she's snowed in) and can hopefully finish work early as I'm owed time back and get my hair cut and do some food shopping.

    TOMORROW IS PAYDAY. VERY EXCITED AS HAVE DONE MY BUDGET AND ALL LOOKS GOOD SO FAR. OFF TO PLAY WITH THE ASDA SITE AND DECIDE WHETHER TO GET A DELIVERY OR NOT X

    Hey Souk

    Just catching up on your diary, sounds like you've been having a good time.

    I need to get back to the gym, or maybe the swimming. I quite like hitting the pool.

    I'm normally good with Xmas and like you, get the presents sorted before 1st December so that December is all about partying!

    However this year I'm not on the ball - I do normally buy bits and bobs throughout the year and so I need to work out what I've bought and what is left to get......I hate being so disorganised.
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Morning hon & a very Happy St. Andrews Day to you - I only know that because google told me !

    Yay for payday - just checked my bank & the cash is in :D Just a mere sprinkling of snow here today - hope you're not snowed in.
