    BB it must have been a great sleep to sleep through 3 alarms! :rotfl:
    Good going on not being late though. :)

    Ah there's nothing worse than the day dragging in at work. Horrible weather tonight but at least had stopped raining when I left work at 23:30. River is very very high though. :eek:

    Hope you wake up feeling better or figure out a way of getting rid of the angry feelings. Maybe just letting it out will help? In an appropriate way obv. :p

    Thanks feeling alot better this morning although still struggled to get up. Was playing about with YNAB last night think that's what made me angry :rotfl: was getting frustrated as I couldn't get it to do what I wanted!!

    Another day at work both jobs today so it's going to be a long one especially with the system playing up!

    Keep reading about everyone's xmas bargains which makes me want to go shop as I feel like I'm missing out but I don't need anything so trying my hardest not to sucumb to shopping.

    Anyway weather is ok this morning tomorrow and the weekend may be a different story have a funny feeling I may get blown away with the winds that are forecast

    :rotfl: at YNAB, I get like that when I can't get something to do what I want it to do. :rotfl:

    I know what you mean about the shopping, I just try not to look at the bargain threads and then look at my budget and that really stops me from buying! :o

    Weather is meant to be terrible tomorrow so I'm expecting work to be chaotic. :eek:

    Thanks had a bit of bad news today about one of my jobs luckily it's the one I do an hour a week at. The jewellery that I do will no longer be sold in our shops so from 2nd Feb I will be losing around £20 a month. The thing that bothers me most about this is for the first time ever I actually added it to my budget! :mad: will need to remove this now!

    I'm actually not that bothered to be honest phoned the shop to advise them and my boss couldn't get off the phone quick enough! Obviously not interested.

    I went to slimming world at the weekend and I've lost 2lbs so am now down to 11st 6 lbs still 13 lbs to go to meet target and 3.5 till I've lost a stone. Not too sure if I actually want to lose that much tho am quite happy where I am just now.

    I got my hair cut at the weekend and everyone has commented on it today some people have actually walked past me :rotfl:

    Better get back to work now. Weather here isn't really showing any signs of improving anytime soon but it's pay day today so need to nip out to the bank at lunch and sort out all my money

    Well I ventured out at lunch had to go to the bank and also get some lunch. Tried to make chicken and rice soup in the soup maker last night but it tasted awful :( so had to buy lunch today so got chicken and rice soup for £1.31 and a free plain roll which i will take home for my hubby as its far too many syns!

    Quick wee half hour lunch trying to save my flexi time. So back to work now!

    Will try for a proper update tonight x
