Ive posted Christmas cards for the neighbours, sent Steve's birthday card and now Ive got to send back the perfume from fleabay to get a refund. Ive tried it again and it doesn't smell of issey miyake. I'm wondering if the smell has faded with age? Although I have some old one's and they still smell of the scent as I store them in a dark wardrobe.
Then I am seeing my nieces and I am going to chill for the day in front of the telly.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
The friend and her son who were going to be coming round tomorrow are dying of flu and I don't want it so I am spending Christmas at home with all the food. lol.
I've done a bit of tidying today. I sorted out a drawer or two that have been waiting for ages. I have just about paid for Christmas but have no spare money now till payday so no shopping for me for a bit. Still I can tidy.
Lodger has gone to visit friends for xmas and will be back in a few days. It's nice to have the place to myself.:T

It's all over. Christmas was great. It's now Boxing Day, or National Sales Day. I used to be a sales shopper and would be up early now I really don't need anything.
I'm taking it easy today and planning to tidy my spare room and do some marking. Mum is going to the sales to buy some nice Christmas Cards for me and that's it.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

I've been sorting out my spare/cupboard room and am shattered. I have two big bags of charity things now. I might go for a walk tomorrow.
I'm still eating Christmas food. There is so much left over.
I moved the big pile of marking into the downstairs bedroom. I have that to start and ironing to do tomorrow.
I am not tired and feel rested. I have been off for 5 days and it has done me the world of good.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I agree with you on the "not tired and feel rested" front - what a difference it makes having time away from stress work people at times (not the pupils, they're awesome!)0

I feel exactly the same Kittikins. :T:):T:)
OMG it's snowing.
I have been ironing and watching tv. Not a lot on. I have 5 blouses left to iron. Can't decide whether to do them today or tomorrow.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
