    Hi Nelly,

    What an exciting way to get a pet!

    I thought about you the other day when I read zenhabits dot net June challenge - the no procrastination challenge. I would definitely recommend a read :D

    Took !!!!! to the vet today and it turns out she is only about 5/6 weeks old!! Too young for shots, worming and flea treatment (she doesn't actually have fleas) so back in two weeks to start the process.

    Thanks Terry! ;)


    Funnily enough I was coming on to give a little update!
    I have over paid my overpayment for the month, and that is with not getting my shift allowance paid last month either!

    But as ever, when I get to the middle of the month, I go a bit bananas and I have now spent ALL my budgeted cash for the month! I have £50 for petrol and £6 for food! :eek:

    BUT!!!...I have had to budget for the new kitten so that's my excuse and I am sticking to it!! :p
