    Hello :hello:

    Bought my light yesterday budgeted £90 turns out it was £80 :T so I made all the money selling things on fb selling pages to cover the money :T and it's soooooooooooo pretty lol xx

    Volunteered to hand out surveys to the community and me and Abbie started it last night for a couple hours work they've said we should get £50 :J so I've promised Abbie £10 seeing as she's helping and the money I earn is going towards spending money for butlins next month, every little helps xx

    Today been working since 7.30am til 1pm and now working from 3pm til 5.30pm

    Nipped to town to trade in a game for Abbie that she got for Xmas but didn't want and only got £1 :mad: but it's better than nothing I suppose :rotfl: so it's going in her turkey fund

    Bought hair dye today that the salons use as the home dye kit that doesn't seem to stay in my hair for long but I know the stuff they use in the salons does bit pricey at £17 but it lasts longer in my hair so prob works out cheaper in the long run :)

    Nipped into new look and got jeggings for Abbie were £12 down to £6 and a top for me for £3

    Taking Abbie to get her eyebrows waxed should cost me £6, kids at school are horrible keep making fun of her eyebrows as she's got quite thick ones and she does normally get them waxed but the last visit to another salon put her off so we are walking up their just after 4 after I pick my son up from his after school club xx

    Got my avon run today collecting my orders tonight so hoping for some good ones tonight the ill crash out on the couch with the hubby who seems to be slipping into a depressed state just now think he's overthinking too much and taking things personally at work such as targets which has sfa to do with him xx

    Right off to get kids wrapped up before heading out xx
