Thanks Beccie, I think he was a bit disappointed that he didn't get a few days off, especially since I had 3 snow days last week!
But like I said at least he has a job, many people don't and we can't take that for granted.

Not any updates to do regarding to money saving/debt busting but thought I would post anyway!
Feeling quite festive now, 2 weeks on Saturday! Honestly can't wait for some time off work to spend time with family and friends.
Still got some shopping to do and I'm glad that the post is finally starting to arrive as I have quite a few parcels coming my way!
I think the biggest problem is going to be the logistics of it all! OH's family on Christmas Day (but still need to pop in to my family too) and then my family on Boxing Day. Overnight stays are preferred so we can have a drink and no-one has to worry about driving...VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -

They won't be!
