misstara's mortgage free diary

Woke up really early this morning so thought I'd update my much neglected diary.
I've been off on holiday for the last week so have had a nice time hanging out with OH at the allotment, meeting up with various friends and we went down to Glasgow for a night. Fairly low spends as meeting with friends consisted of either going for a walk or a coffee. OH paid for the hotel in Glasgow and I paid for meals and the petrol. Lovely to be off especially since it was a tough few weeks at work before I left - someone new has started and I'm really struggling to get on with them. Usually I can get on with anyone but we have very very different personalities/approaches and it's been hard going. Hoping I will go back refreshed after my holiday and things will seem better.
