Hi SA,
Just dropping by to say a quick hello and hope you're well - thank goodness the patio doors got sorted!Mortgage: £83,000
Credit Card Debt: £1,700

Another spend day today, not doing very well this week. Nothing that wasn't needed though.
Phone is finally fixed £32 paid. If anything else goes wrong with it I'll get a new one. It's been strangely liberating not having a phone, although not sure I could cope for much longer. Mr SA has only phoned me once a day on my work phone, I think he was worried someone else would answer it.
Meant to be going for a drink after work with the team, but given we've been a very reduced team this week, due to leave and sickness, it might get called off. Not bothered either way to be honest.
Thank goodness it's Friday tomorrow :jI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -

Yes it's amazing how you get used to having your phone around. I get a perverse pleasure however of switching mine onto mute and chucking it in the bottom of my bag! I can't be one of those people who walk down the street with it glued to their ear and not looking where they're going!:mad:

Glad the phone is fixed, you are doing well with the iPhone 4.... my went kaput about 2 years ago.
Hope you enjoy the drinks if they go ahead, happy Friday xxMummytogirls x0 -
Didn't bother with the drinks after work. There were so few of us in the end and they didn't want to go until 5pm. I started work at 7am and didn't fancy doing a 10 hour day just for one drink.
Glad this week is over, it's been super busy at work with people off and it's passed in a blur.
Have been quite spendy too, been shopping every day, although not gone mad by any means. Been rubbish with the September scrimping challenge this week.
This time next week I'll have finished work for two weeks
