happy new year everyone
last inght was great. we did stop and go for lunch on the way as a treat but not too expensive but stil not a NSD. today is a NSD...but i need to fund Januaruys challenge if there is one.
my balancing of my bank seems to be a bit squif as i seem to have less thatn expected so ust wating to see whats going out (i look at my "available" not the actul balance) bit annoying as i thought i was being really clever but i wont be spending any money this week so will knowo exactly what my balance is as we go into the weekend.
This weekend hubs and i are away for a night. we booked it ages ago & is a hotel, dinner bubbley spa and breakfast. so will only cost petrol to get there and a few extra drinks. so hopefully keep it cheapish.
AND hopefully (please cross ALLL your fingers) hubs will be starting work next week which will make my life so much easier.
anyway, hope you all had a gret (cheap) NYE and hangovers not too bad today... i stayed pretty sober, think i was worried about making a fool of my self infront of strangers, hubs wasnt feeling great & had to drive back this morning.
I dont make resolutions but i have made plans for the year, they are divded into house/activities (places/things hubs i want to go or do)/ my plans / hubs plans. If its written down then it has to be ticked off
