    THE GYM LETTERS HAVE GONNNNNEEEEEEEEE
    :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    Let's party!!!! :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

    Ahem, compose yourself Scuff!

    So that's ticked off the list at long last, and is the final (achievable atm) un-needed expense to be got rid of. Shame it took me 2 months to do, and cost me an extra £40 in the process, but let's let bygones be bygones and celebrate the fact that I no longer have to pay it :)

    Didn't get chance to post yesterday (and am glad, I only handed the gym letter in today on the way to work, so I escaped a roasting that way :p) yesterday was super busy. Busy busy day at work and then I can home shoved some washing in got changed and went out and did a flower arranging course that I bought on a voucher a bit ago - it was awesome I only paid £19 for the wowcher thing and I came home with a MASSIVE bunch of flowers, so was pretty good value I thought :) was an NSD too as it was already paid for, although I did neglect myself at lunch and only have a bag of mini cheddars :o we bouhgt a chinese out of the joint account though as it was gone 10 when I got back from flowering. Have brought LO for lunch today (although really have no appetite :()

    Tuesday was also NSD, in fact I made money! Went round to see Dad and he asked me to bring Chinese (2 nights on the trot haha) but then gave me back a tenner when it only cost £7! So I'm £3 up!

    Today won't be NSD, already bought some wrapping paper for my friend's kiddies birthday presents (£1) and paid £5 sponsorship to Movember. Went to the docs this morning so didnt start work until just after 10, my day's all our of kilter and will also end up being really short!! (luckily I have plenty of hours banked to make up for late start)

    Think thats me all caught up!!

  • Hi Scuff,

    Just had a quick read through, and I LOVE your diary. I must have been awful at spending money at uni, though it really didn't feel like it at the time! Assumed I would get some sort of wisdom after graduation, but no I think I got worse :o

    Good luck with everything and yay for the gym letter :T

    Thanks everyone, lea we'll have no hissy snakes in this assembly hall!! :D really is a worry off my mind now :) (the gym letter, not lea's snakes!)

    Been a slightly neglectful diary owner lately! But I have been super busy so that's my excuse!

    Really tired as OH has been getting up for work at 5:45 so I'm awake from then pretty much (rather than around 6:30ish) and as he hasn't been getting in til late I tend to dawdle to bed cos I fee like I haven't seen him :( brain is therefore too tired to write logical update (I've been trying all lunchtime, soso tired!) Will update properly tonight after a nap or tomorrow!

    Hope everyone else is doing okay, feel like I'm not really getting anywhere atm but I'm blaming that on the Christmas Birthday season, Im sure the majority of people feel the same, which makes me feel marginally better!!
