Well wild weather up here so shut up early and got some wrapping done tonight. Supposed to be off tomorrow but girls are struggling to get in so i may have to at least open up. Got a haircut booked for 11 and I really need it so will do that and if I do get the day off, here's my list:
Wrap 1 more present
Write Xmas cards
Post Xmas cards
Fill out passport form and take to the PO
Quick clean of bathroom
Food shop
Sort out the hamper of random stuff that lives in the hall
And loads of time for [STRIKE]festering[/STRIKE]taking time out.
Just tried on my skirt for my work night out on Sat. It's [STRIKE]too tight[/STRIKE] snug but my top is long and ruched so I'll be fine. Am on track for saving £80 from this wage to last through jan and thanks to DT and my personal shopping at the weekend I have enough to pay for:
My passport
A ticket for We Will Rock You
A top for myself
without touching my normal weeks money. :j:j:j
It has got me thinking. If I charge more from now on and do 3 shops before summer, I could have a holiday without saving any of my normal cash. Need to look at lots of ways to make that happen in the new year. Also need to look at overpaying the debt/versus living the life and want to shape up a bit so may do the dreaded South Beach Plan in Jan. :eek: Wish me luck!!!'The road to a friends house is never long'0 -
"We will rock you" would be amazing. Hope your staff made it in to work so that you could get to the hairdresser.Total debt 11/1/2011 €5350.65Total debt 12/12/12 €3222.31CrazyClothesChallenge 2013 #006 €34.08/€5000

Souk, remember the personal shopper money is income, so taxable, so might be worth putting some on one side for the dreaded tax man. Not sure when you need to start thinking about it as income though.
What is the 'South Beach Plan'?0
