    Hi Peeps

    Today I have:

    Filled DW - not full so won't get set away today
    Checked online Bank - no suprises
    Took packed lunch to work (so no purchases there and even managed to avoid the quality street choccies begging "eat me")
    Updated diary

    and today is my first NSD of 2011 - Yey!!!

    Hi all

    Hope you don't mind me joining in???

    Had a fairly relaxed day today, but I've managed to ......

    *Checked online banking
    *Cleaned both mine & my OH's car inside & out
    *Was planning on a NSD but had to fill my car costing me £50.01 (I usually spend £110 a month on petrol but starting Tues i'm planning on catching the bus to work when i'm working an early shift because I can use public transport for free) :o
    * One of my new years resolutions is to learn to make my own jewellery & I have found a course teaching the basic techniques it does cost £24 but I think it's worth it in the long run!!:j

    Anyway i'm off to watch one of the many films I sky+ over the festive season..

    Bye x

    You can feel better than I Woofer, I've not even started the year 12 marking. I am going to have to do it tomorrow. Mind you if I see one more of my colleagues posting on facebook that they're not looking forward to Tuesday and where did the holidays go I'll explode. grrrrr

    I did however, have a bit of good displacement activity. I did my washing and my ironing and even managed to do the cushion covers. Very proud of that. :j

    Night night all
