Up to date

Well, that's all of my previous ramblings that were typed out else where, I can now start getting up to date. When I am feeling inspired of course...........

Money and cars

Ok its November now and I am not much closer in getting my Christmas presents bought. This is due to my damn car!!!! I never have any money because of it grrrr. Well I have bought his nibs Christmas present which is a few bits and pieces and a mini break in London with tickets to an exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. Ooo how cultured are we? Luckily me, my mum and my sister have put limits on how much we are spending on each other this year for Christmas, this is great as I don’t have to worry too much then either. I long for the day when I don’t have to fork out loads of money on my car, or for the day when money isn’t so much of a problem. Why does it always feel like you are on a constant struggle against the world? It makes more sense now as Britain heads into a recession, that we’re going to have less money to spend and more and more people will be made redundant and loose their jobs. As reading back on previous rantings I can see I have had many a car trouble. After

Presents and Parties

I am so tired today, I feel like I have had no sleep, although I know I at least had some. Right it’s the beginning of October tomorrow, and knowing how I like to be organised, it’s time to start shopping for Christmas presents. I have no idea what to get his nibs; he has said he has already bought mine!!!!!!!!! This amazes me for a start that he has been that organised and bought it. I really need to get my thinking cap on. It is also his 21st next year and I have a few ideas what to get him for that. We have also started planning a party for him, which he doesn’t know about yet, I am hopeless at keeping secrets from him as well, and I am going to try my hardest not to let on what’s happening. I also have to have a big think what to get my friend, as I normally get her some sort of Archers product, but now she finds herself with child, obviously she can’t drink. It looks like I will have to resort to her second favourite thing, of pigs. There might also be an extra person to b

Autumn and flip flops?

Autumn is upon us and yet I am amazed at the amount of people who refuse to believe it and are still wandering around in flip-flops!!! I mean come on……who in their right mind likes soggy feet? I know I certainly don’t and can think of nothing worse. Don’t they know they could suffer horribly and get trench foot or something?!?!?! I can see the point of little dolly/slipper type shoes, to make one look dainty or to go with an outfit, but flip-flops, when it’s raining, complete escapes me. I suppose there is an exception, if you are in hot weather, and all of a sudden it rains, like it would in say places like Florida, then I am sure you could quite easily find yourself in that situation and it would be no fault of your own.
