Happy Friday! YAY! Well yesterday i just didnt sit still! seemed i was constantly on the go!
OH CYCLED to work this morning, it took him roughly an hour, so just over twice as long as taking the car! (its a 6.5ish mile trip each way!) he said he was cream crackered and felt sick when he got to work lol
Checked balances this morning, things arent too bad i guess, realized i didn't buy any more sarnie fillings when i went shopping yesterday! pooh bum, oh well maybe some rice/potatoe/pasta salads for them instead, but i have bought some tins of soup so maybe other half could take one to work with him!
Other then the £2.50 my daughter has gone to school with for comic releif, I wont be spending any more money!
Called housing association yesterday to see just how much arrears we would have to pay for the end of the month
more then i thought
fingers crossed for other halfs pay at the end of this month! 0 -
Amara as far as I'm concerned if people will call the number then hey, you may as well make the money! I personally don't believe in it all or understand it but some people do!Nothing to report as yet...give me a minute...!0

My mood is a little brighter…however, this guy at work calls me Vicky, but my name is Victoria….god I hate that! :mad: :mad:
You could either ignore him when he speaks to you and then look surprised and say 'Oh sorry, didnt realise you were talking to me as my name isnt Vicky' Or you could just start calling him random mens names and when he asks why just say 'Oh I thought we were just calling each other what we wanted'.
Have you told him that you dont like Vicky? I have spent the last 6 months calling someone at work Sue (as do most people)............she only shared last week that she hates being called Sue and she would prefer it if everyone just called her Susie as its the name she uses! Doh! Nip Vicky in the bud now, dont let it ruin your mood!0 -
