    So tea out last night turned into lots of wine and dancing. Spent double my budget of £20 :o and have totally wasted the day with a horrendous hangover :(. I've only started feeling better in the last couple of hours. Annoyed with myself but its done now. I should know by now to budget more for social stuff as I always seem to go over.

    I spent £7.56 on something for tea and supplies for my shift tomorrow. Me and OH are planning to go to Aldee on Monday and get a proper shop in.

    Need to have a look at my budget and see what I can tweak to cover the overspend.

    Maybe the dancing was worth it, misstara? It sounds like a lot of fun to me. :D

    Glad your hangover's feeling better. :)
    If you know you have enough, you're rich. ;)

    Morning ani, yeah it was really fun and great to catch up with the girls so definitely worth it :). I'm just annoyed at myself because one of the girls left about 11.30 and I thought I should leave too as if I do, I won't go over budget and won't be too hungover but ah well. Alcohol and budgets definitely don't mix ;)

    Today should be a NSD as I'm currently on my way to a double shift and have got plenty of supplies with me.

    Thanks monz :D

    A day off today for me :) so I had a nice lie in, went to the gym, got the shopping in, met my gran for coffee and visited a friend in hospital. The shopping came to £26.70 so pleased with that although there's a couple of things that I need to get at some point which Aldee didn't have.

    Well have had a fairly relaxing day off, went to the gym, did some baking and cleaning but other than that I have mostly sat reading a book :)

    Wow MissT, that sounds like my perfect day, with maybe the bit about the gym removed :o:D.
