Well done, Penny.

I’m pleased you have treated yourself. Whilst saving is important, you must still enjoy life. It’s nice to have a few new bits to enjoy in the run up for Christmas, isn’t it. Are you going to wear your new items on Xmas day.

Definitely going to wear the crimbo jumper, but will probably wear it before as it is cute.

DH picked up the rug I won and it is brand new, its nothing fancy just a plain cream/beige but does the job and at least if the dog ruins this one it hasn't cost a fortune.
DH also had a small spend of £5.10 on rice and milk at the supermarket.
Amaz0n order arrived so we are stocked up on washing powder and dishwasher tabs.

£2.50 redeemed into paypal from a survey site, apart from that all quiet.

Its so cold outside I really hope we don't get snow.

Glad you bought something nice. Christmas jumper will last for years - I've got two Christmas long sleeved tshirts that come out every year

Morning.

Gosh its a cold one but at least it hasn't snowed.

Been awake since 5am, so used the time to do some surveys, have managed to redeem a £5 amaz0n voucher from swagbuck$ and £5 prepaid card from 1say, all adds up.

Last nights kofta's went down well, DS complained after he has wolfed the lot down that they were a bit spicy, but he ate them so that's progress. Not sure what tea tonight will be as i'm out again, meeting friends for Italian happy hour, not sure I want to go but i'm sure I will be fine once out, only staying for the meal i'm not up to going round pubs and a) I can't drink and b) I don't want knocking into.

Dh is off today so we are going to try and finish Christmas shopping this afternoon, would be nice to get it done and dusted, then I can relax and just think of the nice stuff like decorating the house and baking scrummy treats.

Hope everyone is keeping warm today. xx

So fed up with husband, maybe i'm being oversensitive or just stupid but i'm so upset.
Months ago DH wanted to go and see a band that he really likes, I like them to but not as much as him, so tickets went on sale we were both at work and they sold out in minutes and didn't get any, people were selling them on for silly money and I point blank refused to pay hundreds of pounds to see a band, months have passed havn't thought about it since until DH said the other day the band have released more dates,tickets go on sale Friday, Dh rang me this morning as he had to nip out for an hour to ask me to try and get tickets, I had completely forgotten he had mentioned it, said yes as long as they are not silly money again. so I managed to get tickets for DH and rang to tell him to be told I will give you the money they are your Christmas present:mad:.
I'm so upset, I've been dropping hints that I would like to go away for a weekend just the 2 of us,that it would be good for us after everything. Mentioned it would be nice to go back to paris, also showed him a lovely hotel in Venice by a canal. How I would like to go to Ireland one day as I have never been. Wouldn't it be nice to go back to the hotel where we got married, All those kind of things. Obviously hasn't gone in or he just doesn't want to go with me.
I'm so angry that after such a horrible few months that he couldn't just think about me, I don't know maybe spoil me a bit and make me feel special, I feel carp about how I look now and it just makes me think he doesn't want to be with me or he thinks she is fine now I can carry on living my life.

I hope he stays out now, he has ruined my day and I really don't want to go shopping or out tonight.

I'd be cross about that too. Why not buy the nice weekend for your present to him?

I have bought us a night away at a hotel in a place we first met, organised MIL to have the kids etc. I'm just cross that I feel like it's me that has to think about the relationship all the time and I just for once wanted him to think oh she has had a really carp time I will spoil her a bit, at least then I would know that he still wants to be with me. I've got a big birthday coming up in a few months and nothing has been mentioned, we went to the US for his .
I actually feel like ringing a taxi and just disappearing off for a few days, but that wouldn't be fair on the kids:(.
