    Eyebrow wax in case you get an interview?! That is madness, bee!
    MD got her nails done I thought at £8.00 getting my eyebrows done was not the worse spend, she didn't do a bad job either. The hairbrush cost £8.99 which I did need, and I have been putting off buying fish and chips for quite some time and decided I would go for it. Bit naughty but there you go, we can't always be saintlyXX

    Today I am due to go to the job centre this afternoon, however before I am due to go to the job centre I am 1) going to mechanic to see about getting rear wiper blade replaced as it is broken MD said she would pay for it, then 2) Getting those bricks (X6) and then onto the job centre, I have an appointment today to end self employment as it never really happened. Then I will go to MDs to sort out the fridge and use those bricks. But this all starts at 12:00 I think I will start the journey, I will make sure to have lunch before and I am sure of the brick idea works MD will pay for the bricks as well, which I think they will. So I should be able to rack up another no spend day, however maybe not as I have been craving chocolate again?! Have a good day allXX

    Martin has saved the day again, I asked the student loan company if I could have a refund they said there was near £600 possible to refund (I am not sure on the exact figure, I will let you know when I know), this gives me a bit more time to find a lodger or if I get a lodger I will reach my goal for £3500 EF and without a job! With the HMRC rebate I feel like the November is a lucky month, which is strange as my father died in November, perhaps he is helping me from the stars, this is what I think he is doing. 

    So Christmas is set to be good this year, all I need now is a job and life will be even better, but now I will take this bonus and fly with it. Today has been good one of the friendly members of the job centre was available and once I had done my appointment with the other friendly chap I managed to get tomorrows appointment done as well. I went to the mechanic about the part I needed he said he would let me know when it is available, I think I will call tomorrow, he seemed a little upset today I don't know if he got out the bed the wrong side, perhaps he was just tired or feeling off, maybe I got the wrong end of the stick?

    I also picked up some bricks and sorted out the fridge once and for all and it was the right call, the fridge stops going too far back in the recess now and MD said it is great only she wishes it was done sooner!! Any how at least that is done now! 

    I spoke to MD about sorting out the Christmas decks, I was going to stay at mine and do mine, I know it is a little early but while I am not doing much except job searches etc. I thought I could do this, as I have written I think I will wait until December, however if MDs lodger gets the decks down at hers I will sort hers out for her tomorrow equally it would be quite good to stay in for tomorrow, I want to get back into writing while I am looking for work I also want to do some cross stitch. It is a quiet time of year for jobs so I may as well make the most of the time and do something productive. I think MD appreciated the cross stitch I did for her birthday in a big way so I will be glad to give her the Christmas card I am in the middle of making, I just need to get to it again and finish it.

    Also I planned on making a cake but still have not got round to it, I could do with sorting this, but also this could wait until the weekend maybe. And lastly I have two leads for the room and two leads for two different jobs, wait and see time. Have a good evening allXX
