    I might not do Thursday's this week Freeby, as I'm a bit busy towards the end of the week... I'll see how I get on if that's OK? Normally Thursday is fine :)
    Chuck it my way this week if you like. I'm sure I can handle Wednesday and Thursday - but just this once mind ;)

    A busy NSD # 7 today!

    Settling into a new job, with an hours commuting time a day, I don't have time to even think about spending!

    Read my new class the riot act today. They are good kids at heart, but I think they've been allowed to get away with a lot over the past couple of months (they had a student teacher for 5 weeks, then their heavily pregnant teacher, I think, didn't really have the energy to straighten them up again).

    I've got my work cut out with them that's for sure! But after a few weeks of taking no nonsense, I'm sure they'll come good again! Strangely looking forward to the challenge actually!
    Because it's fun to have money!

    Evening all, well shivver me timbers it's blinkin freezin out there - though thankfully the only snow we've had today was while I was out freezing my wotsits off at boot camp - seriously my legs were so cold from the knees upwards I could barely run.

    However, NSD #6 in the bag - even I'm too bloomin cold to spend :eek:

    Did get a nice treat today though, my sewing box has arrived (xmas present from my mum but was OOS until now) so it feels like I've got a spendy day AND I can spend the evening organising it :o Oh heck...I'm either OCD or OLD :rotfl:
