  • It was great monz.

    DH pottered about getting organised for his couple of nights away & I checked the bank, CC's & my wee savings spreadsheet - so obsessed with it all!

    We watched a wee episode of Ray Donovan then I went to bed & he played the x-box for an hour.

  • It sounds like a lovely night, Dolly. It's funny how much I enjoy a quiet night in now, there has to be something pretty special going on to get me out of the house in the evenings!

  • Same here!

    I used to live for going out & now I am the complete opposite.

    Love a wee cosy night in.

  • DH's italian sweets arrived today, perfect timing as he is away so means I can get them home & stash them somewhere.

  • Nice! I'd be tempted to eat them all myself, especially as you now have 'extra' :p
    :happylove
  • I have tucked them away safely in my wardrobe & even listed some of them on ebay!

    Might aswell try & make some of the money back if I can.

  • Need to keep more on top of the finances, feels like a full time job sometimes!

    I spend more time logging into my bank & scribbling all these notes down than I do anything else in life :p
