sorry- i just had to come out of lurkerdom to say you all i crazzeee folks man! Just about fell out of my bed catching up on today's hijinks...

pania

he he hiya ziggles i'm glad i make folks chuckle.. sometimes my posts are soooo serious!!

Morning all.

not much to report today.. well. erm, apart from the fact that i fell off the wagon last night and spent £6 on a damned pizza!!! gah!!! ah well back on the wagon today... is very windy outside so i'm going to head out for a quick run around the block, just a few miles then off to work.
today in financial news, I was informed yesterday that the pain in the bum housemate who gives me the heeby jeebies and is noisy and inconsiderate is moving back to his home country (whoop!! :j ) He has a much bigger room than me so I have decided to take his room on for a while until i move out. it will give me more space, feel less cluttered, further away from the bathroom and not above the living room, so all in all i should feel more peaceful being in there. onlything is that it is £40 per month more expensive than the room i am in at the moment so i need to factor that in to the budgetting.
I have also had a letter from a company that I am convinced that i had paid off, against my snowball and other paper work the payments seem to tally with what i thought i have paid but they are claiming that i still owe them £160! :eek: so i need to get onto, and investigate that.

D and i have decided that we are going to be sensible and go to scotland for a week so i am busily planning that. between us it will be so much cheaper than going abroad and will leave me some of those lovely savings to one side for emergency times. I think we can do it for about £300 each including all the lovely outer hebrides places i've wanted to visit for soooo long. i'm probably getting more excited about a week in scotland than i was about getting on a plane and flying somewhere! crazy hey!! and that budget is about £250 cheaper before spending money than flying away so all in all i reckon about a saving of £350 on what i would have spent!!

Happy times. toxic is being eliminated slowly, i'm feeling more relaxed, 'm not going to beat myself up for falling off the wagon last night, I am human. I will just get right back on it today.

Happy wednesday everyone. chat sooooon!! xx

Short hop from fort william to oban if you want to go to mull on the ferry
crannog restaurant on ft william per- delish seafood (not much use if you're a full on veggie)
