Scuba's Second try - Sink or Swim!

Looking at the credit card statement again today I reckon I can take a fairly big chunk off it if I open my £2 coin tin, but I'm loathe to open it until its completely filled as I've already resisted the urge to open it for so long - been filling it for almost 4 years! But then the mse side says I ought to get the money paid in to a bank account to reduce the interest I'm paying on the credit card.

Meanwhile I've been lucky recently and found some notes on the ground while I've been out and about and I'll admit that at the time I was a little bit tipsy but I popped them in to my largest sealed tin so I have another tin started although as it's at least double the size of the smaller one I dread to think how long it'll take to fill when I get started on it properly but this time I think it'll be for all bigger coins so £2, £1 and 50p plus any more note finds/Christmas and Birthday cash.

Just managed to book myself a handful of short notice mystery shops with fairly nice bonus payments on them which will also save me from needing to actually buy any food for at home this week - which means I may have to rearrange my freezer to fit the pizza's I got from Mr T on the buy 1 get 2 free offer over the weekend to save me from needing to buy anything another time too.

But I also need to find a date for a lunchtime meal in a couple of weeks - now the assorted semi tame males I'm friends with may or may not be around that weekend since I know its a weekend my girlie drinking buddy won't be - plus I have to go back to do a second shift after the meal so definately shouldn't take her since she always forces me in to drinking far too much. :A

Aquired another two £2 coins this evening so popped them in my tin and have regained my motivation to fill it before I open it since it is so nearly full.:T

Had a lovely evening out, was meant to be heading to the pub but decided at the last minute that the cinema was a better idea so saw Safe, still utterly clueless as to the plot but it was fun to watch - Jason Statham was far too clothed for too much of it though!

Would like to point out that I am an idiot.

Who in their right mind puts washing in the machine at 11pm when its a 2.5 hour cycle....and then invites a friend round for a drink?

Don't you hate it when that happens? I swear, if that man played his cards right, he could have me...:D

Someone who, for just a moment, had a bit of a 'stuff it' attitude. Nowt wrong with that, sweetie - you're only an idiot if you don't learn the lesson. Not feeling so sparkly this morning, then?

I'm shattered - I'd blame it on a hangover but I only had 1 pint of wine!

Still todays plans involve heading out soon to do a couple of mystery shops then throwing myself at a train to London to meet some friends for the evening - def evidence of the 'stuff it' attitude, I think I might cultivate that one since last months dilema isn't resolving itself overly well thanks to the pet idiot still being a bigger idiot than normal.

Today it so is the alcohol which is making me sluggish!

Went in to London to meet a friend for a few drinks, so nearly missed the last train home which would have been all kinds of bad news!

Work was fun...so glad to be home and feeling better.

Another light blub has gone in the house so need to walk in to town tomorrow between shifts to get myself a new one for it. And have some more overtime booked, not going to be fun but the money will as always be nice to have at the end of the month.

And on that note its bed time as I have a stupidly early start tomorrow.

scubaangel

I remember why I dislike split shifts and early starts....

Still some good stuff has happened over the last 24 hours which I can't say too much about but has put a massive grin on my face despite the tiredness.

Studying going slowly, but steadily, I've just over 24 hours to finish the first assignment and then as I've finished (but failed to understand) the reading I'll attempt the second while I re-read the text in hope of getting it done by the end of the week, ambitious much....

Whilst doing this studying I have been proudly wearing my Noras Thoughts wrap and the tealight holders look soo pretty.
