Wahoo it is my birthday, 40 something Ehem! I received a card from a friend I connect with now and again and MD said she wanted me to use her credit card to treat myself today. I am just getting dinner of pizza and lunch of bread and pate etc. Things I was going to do for myself but now I don't have to spend the money. MD also said to get some flowers! So that is something. Just this second, I got rejected for a job, gosh and I was almost happy!! Don't worry this gal has been knocked down many times and she will get up and get a job eventually - I am sure of it. I still have some irons in the fire...lets see what happens this weekXXMissions for the rest of the year:-

Cash pot depleted again only this time medicinal roomie not feeling great woke up with cramps and I went out and got all the stuff to sort him out. He said he will contribute towards it. I'll also be making tomato gratin ratatouille tonight full of veg, I got some of the ingredients for this. Plus detergent. I annoyingly forgot to use my voucher!
Cash pot stands at £7.50, I also transferred £7.45 from prolific this morning I managed to get an early morning survey prolific now stands at £0/ £13.02 pending.
Have a good day all that come byXXMissions for the rest of the year:-
