Oops!
Apologies to all, especially ModestyB and little_sweetie, it's not my birthday but I'm nearly little_sweetie's number twin
so I don't get cake! But it would be rude not to eat it now :rotfl:
You can share my cake anytime rosy
thanks to everyone who sent me birthday wishes including our lovely Sue-uu. In fact you can all have a slice too! :rotfl:I had a lovely relaxing day and DH treated me to lunch....nom...nom...
I started my Christmas present shopping in earnest today as I had only bought 2 gifts already. I have bought another 3 and have 2 for the GC on order so off we go :T (and I'm still within budget) 20p change potted.Sealed Pot Challenge #012

I took the shoes back into the shop with me! they were completely uninterested in their poorly trained assistant, so have fired off an email of complaint to head office. I was not happy at all, shoes are expensive enough without having to pay twice for their incompetence

Good luck with that - keep putting the pressure on. Wonder if you could sell them if still in good cond. As you say shoes are soooo expensive.
Just another £ 1 in the pot as had a NSD and no change but at least it's something - and YES SUE - must try harder.
Oh well if I keep pushing uphill must eventually reach a down slope :rotfl:
Have a good weekend all

Soooo tired! (Well, it is ten to one!
)
Nothing to pot today
Had a lovely evening by a bonfire and watching fireworks. Followed by burgers at my parent's house and wedding talk
I received a letter on Friday about me winning a fantastic competition that I entered from a wedding magazine
I usually suffer from depression most badly in November and March, but November is probably worse. With just under 18 months to go, I'm really trying to focus on wedding planning (as well as my OU work) to try and keep my mind distracted and happy
Although, my OH's mobile phone has broken this evening, so I'm worried about that now
He's only just over half way through the two year contract
