Hope the car doesn't cost much. Nice to be bought a travel system, well done0

Well unfortunately car is going to cost £330 eek, the power steering pump is broking and is leaking fluid. So glad I have some money in savings although meant to be using that for sofas....oh dear. Hopefully will all work out in the end.
We did just notice though that the electric company took money from me and OH last month. I thought when i tried paying with his card it hadn't worked but apparently had. Hoping we can get a refund for that.
On the plus side work was OK, handed my MATB1 form in and have given my last date at work so all feeling very real now. Also ebay sales are going well, will definately help now!0 -
Car is fixed for now. Got service and MOT next week, lets hope that there is nothing else seriously wrong...fingers crossed.
The good news is we have done quite well on our ebay sales. Sent a few things today and got a few more packaged up to send tomorrow. At least that will help towards car costs. Have also managed to clear a bit of space to store Christmas decorations.
Work has gone quick this week, will be off on maternity leave in no time if it keeps going this quick!0 -

I also got some foundation from Boots and three sleepsuits from m and s,used my vouchers to get them.
Going to try and do more sorting this afternoon as seem to just have stuff lying around everywhere.0 -
