    morning I_A,

    Good luck with the delivery! Nothing that exciting for me this week:

    1. Pay day on Thursday, it has been a loooong time since the last one and my debts will be coming down (only 3 more pay days to go after this one- whoo hoo!)
    2. Having £30 in my purse to last me till Thursday (budget did good this month!) hoping to spend no more than £10 though.
    3. I am looking forward to Friday, a whole weekend with nothing planned, nowhere to be and no money needed to be spent (sad eh? A few years ago I would have been horrified at the thought of doing nothing on a Saturday night!)

    Have a good week everyone!
    Saving for an early retirement!
  • I am looking forward to going back to work - sad I know but been off for over 4 weeks now and am going stir crazy!!!

    Looking forward to having the shower grouting finished (hopefully today!)

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Hi folks,

    Did you know that today is known as Blue Monday?

    http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1694507.html?menu=

    So it is good to hear that people are fighting this theory in true DFW style.

    For me, this week

    - Diet and gym (lost 12lb since NYD)
    - Setting up my DMP and relaxing a bit
    - Hopefully watching Murray beat Nadal (tempted fate there haven't i?)
    - My dad's b'day on Friday (but no cake for me)
