:eek: cocktails and cooking Sunday dinner doesn't go together, I can detect lumpy gravy and burnt potatoes :eek:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

well dinner was a sucess
made some more gingerbread men as people at work wanted some!
not much to report this week really. had some lsd and gloing for nsd today. thats only beacuse i am working from home and have not even got dressed yet!
was going to get my fringe trimmed on tue in the city and lunch and a ms co rang and begged me to do a ms in the city. i ummed and ahhed 'well i will have to get the bus all the way in for it, can i have more money?' and i got an extra £2 :T was a result when getting bus anyway! plus job in total took 10 mins inc report so very pleased with my fee!
getting hair cut tomorrow, just found out my usual guy has left so when i made my appointment on tue only one left is a higher level so will be £5 more. not too bad and next time i will book in advance so more choice!
xmas night out for work tomorrow. going for a curry at 6 :eek: then out drinking. have got £45 in purse ready and really dont want to spend more than that!
looks like i can make a payment to dad this month of £250 which is good. already made £190 payment when i was paid before i started the diary. so that is £440 repaid this month yey :j although is £50 less than what i plannedgood news is i will get paid £160 extra on payday due to overtime and mileage claims so only need about £60 more for tax bill. have done more than that in ms so will be all sorted! might be able to make a small payment next month then in addition to the £190

Very much liking your idea of gingerbread men instead of christmas cards, am tempted to pinch it but not sure how to present them (hint hint
)
i was thinking of icing pps names on and putting them in small cellopane food bags (clear ones) and tie with ribbon/metalic stuff you get for wrapping paper.
although asda do cheap paper sandwich bags so maybe those?:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0 -

Sorry, the heating is on a timer and is off till Thursday and the security code on the fridge doesn't work till then either. And if that doesn't work, remember I've changed the door and you don't have a key. Also changed the internet and you don't know password. Not that I'm trying to put you off or anything:rotfl::D
