Your friend sounds lovely by the way!

I was thinking about this, she REALLY is. We were planning our get together for Christmas, remember I said she was worried cos I had sent a text? it was just in general conversation, she knows me so well that she read between the lines and luckily was relatively nearby.


I am so lucky to have her as my friend. a good friend is always a good friend.


I was going to ask a question about banking but it has gone out of my head - I must be more sleepy than I realise!


I should go to bed but can't sleep.


eek it is 12.30! need to be up in 5.5 hours.


holidays are nearly here. that's good.

Hope you managed to sleep Buffy.

Buffythedebtslayer

sort of Beanie


been a rough couple of days for various reasons. Things with the e mail guy have stopped. he didn't write for a few days and I decided I had shared too much and he was not going to write again so I wished him Merry Christmas and said good bye - he took affront not surprisingly and we have decided to not to write.


Am sad but to be honest what is the point of writing a guy who I am never going to meet? even as a friend, I mean I meet people from here! from other forums. He was very set in his ways. And was getting a bit wearing, nothing really happens! he was nice enough, just exactly what he said. big dreams of travel but never went any where and I don't think we especially fancied each other.


*sighs deeply tries hard not to be negative about men*


I need a new approach to meeting men. Online dating - either you get super lucky or you spend your life meeting weirdos and freaks. And I have a pattern - chatting for AGES and never meeting.


I also need more confidence in that department. any how that is for 2014 and probably a different diary.


Work finishes tomorrow, kids have been NUTS. I have tonnes to do over the holidays but it might be ok.


I sorted out my bank accounts as I was paid early - scary! and properly sorted out a clothes fund and a virtual sealed pot. and my real sealed pots too.


so tired. need sleep.


night all XXXX

Dear Dairy


I am on Christmas holidays! Am very happy about that


It has been a stressful two days (!) and I have spent LOADS of money.


The brakes on mums car went and as I was having a radio fitted for Christmas I got them done. also my hair was far more expensive than I realised too. so a total of 230 pounds spent. Lent mum 105 pounds and I am not completely sure if she is paying it back now or later.


I have pretty much decided to get a loan to buy a new car. Mine is on it's last legs of it's nine lives - I love it but it must go soon. Too much to keep worrying about it.


It has cost me a lot recently. I can't keep covering it - I have used up the money I borrowed at the start of the year fixing (and paying vet fees) it Mental and cannot go like this!


I am skint now and not got all my presents sorted yet. May have to resort to the credit card which would be a right bloody pain in the !!!!.


must make decisions


have to got out now to get fish and chips. another tenner - ish.


am so hungry!!

Buffythedebtslayer

Post fish and chips

Yep I know we shouldn't have them but we don't really have them every week........hmm actually maybe we do..........
*coughs*
won't have them when Mum goes to Florida.

One thing I have worked out is that I do not make decisions. Not about the car, my job (not till it got ridiculous anyhow) the fish tanks, where I live, how to save, going out, shopping etc.

This costs me time and money. I must make decisions.


My New Year Resolutions are

1. Make decisions.
2. Go to bed early.

My Goals

1. get a boyfriend (going to try Amazon.........)
2. get a new car (might have done that already)
3. save 5000 pounds. (got £3000 - may use that for )
4. get a new job in Sept.
5. finish my Masters (must e mail tutor)
6. Crack the depression.
7. Be debt free.
8. work towards my 10 long term goals


really should do the fish tanks.

Buffythedebtslayer

Am so hungry!


Any how that aside, money not as bad as I thought! Had already paid my sister for some of the joint presents - had forgotten. And really being boring and sensible I have moved my Dec pay into a savings account and put some money aside for the new car to lower the loan - if I do get one. boo. the car I was looking at is very hard on petrol.....has a big engine. To be fair I would probably love to drive it and may not be anymore expensive than my current very old car which I love.


any how that is for after Christmas.


lots to do today, furniture moving, fish tank moving, and finally tree putting up.


Also have to pop to the shops - is that possible to do on the last Saturday before Christmas?

Good Morning Buffy

I have lots to do today too, but cant seem to move from the sofa this morning. I think it's because i have to do the food shop and am putting off. I am dreading going, as the SMs are always hectic this time of year. I am just going to take it easy, write a list and stick to it, and refuse to get annoyed or stressed. Hmm...i'll let you know how that goes

If you find a BF on Amazon, please let me know! Tall, blonde and loyal is my ideal

good luck doing the tanks.
