    Saw my house (to be) last night. Love it so much!! They are leaving the washing machine and tumble drier. Says would sell me the fridge/freezer and oven.... £750.... I can get them new that price so said my mum and dad are buying them but will get my own lol! Now I know what I am getting plus blinds. My room will need new ones as red but that can be dealt with last not a big issue tbh.

    First car payment went out today. Next week after finances etc go out might add my first £25 overpayment to it (big spender I know lol!) Got my works psychic night Friday but not drinking and taking my car so I can leave early so wont be spending unless its on a diet coke lol!

    30 days until payday :( hate 5 week months xx

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
