  • Happy birthday for tomorrow (just in case I forget...)!

    *hugs* for all the family carp going on - what a horrid situation to be put in! Whatever you decide in the end, remember to look after yourself - and that you deserve a safe and peaceful home, so it's ok to demand it. You'll note I do not feel said home has to be clean or tidy....

    Sitting chilling, off for meal later. OH sleeping after night shift. He got me a nice card, necklace and a chocolate cup cake with a candle in it.

    Hello All, I had a lovely meal last night (Once I managed to get OH up as he's been working nightsift). Got lovely birthday presents today from my Mum and Dad, a new handbag, a craft glue gun, a chain. I also got a birthday text from the DIY friend (hopefully things are getting back to normal on that one).

    SS has decided he is going to save up to buy a flat, this doesn't sound as bad as you think as the area he wants to move to is really cheap! We looked online and a 2 bed flat is about £18,000 (I actually didn't think there were areas left THAT cheap). Renting in the same area is £500 a month for the same place. So he's decided what he wants to do and should be out in the next couple of months max.

    OH is being moany (he drops his iPhone and its my fault apparently!)i'm just ignoring him. Went shopping today and got some good bargains: dishwasher tablets (ecover) 70p a box so bought 3, Broccolli (sp?) 10p, Cream of Asparagus soup (love this stuff) 50p and some other bits and pieces. I also managed to get posh free crisps and popcorn yesterday as there are vouchers in one of the papers for free items from Lidls every day for a week. I didn't pay for the paper and after seeing what I would have to pay for the newspaper I decided to stop their as the other items this week I probably wouldn't use (bin bags, cleaning stuff, sauces, rice)

    Tarot is slow tonight, was hoping to make it up to the £10 minimum for payment but its not looking hopeful!

    I got them from the Co-op LT, they are VERY good dishwasher tablets and I generally use only half of them. The sales assistnat said they are reduced because new packaging is being introduced.
