    Morning All, up early, OH gone to work, had my breakfast and applied for some jobs. Off to Marie Curie this morning. Love this job, why can't I get paid to do something like this?


    I have brown brown/grey/purple sun dress on, all my brown sandals are too high so have stuck on my flattish black ones that have brown studs on them.... hope it looks ok. Right folks, have a good day, back later, need to pay some funds into the bank as well.

    Morning All, was up mega early this morning as OH had to be in work earlier.

    So far:-

    - paid cc's
    - transferred money to my friend for the shopping card (means I still get a discount)


    No sign of a job yet, it's really getting me down. Will log on to tarot later as I might as well make proper use of it. I did however get a few bargains yesterday in the CS, I got a wallis dress for my Mum (£5), a per una top for me (£2) and a nike top for OH (£1) I also got a new book by one of my favourite authors for £1.

    I did splurge slightly yesterday, my SIL had her nails done using 'magnetic' nail varnish. Its special nail varnish you put on and hold a patterned magnet over your nail and the pattern appears on your nail. So I decided to get it,but at £4.99 a bottle it wasn't cheap. I know its cheaper than going getting a manicure but still. I found it in Superdrug on 3 for 2! So I got 3 different colours (which gives me 3 different patterns), its Barry M and comes in 4 colours black, purple, plum and blue. I got all except black. I've done my nails and they look fab, cheered me up a bit.

    Here is a pic of my nails (I did them a few days ago so please excuse the chips I am really hard on my nails :o). This is the Barry M Magnetic nail varnish. The pattern is a starburst or union jack (not quite sure) which is the top that comes with the blue nail varnish. Its really easy to do, paint one coat let it dry, paint a second coat and immediately hold the magnet lid over the wet nail and the pattern appears!
