Just when my finances are as tight as they've ever been since I left my parents' house, I've been told I'll be working a few extra hours at my day job, and I've been contacted by a woman interested in French lessons to the tune of 3 hours a week. So, yay! I've just got to gaman suru until my two cheques come in next week.
And then, it will be non-stop excitement! First off, I'm going to buy UNDERWEAR! Because honestly, my skivvies are in a sorry state. Not that there's anyone in my life right now who would care, but I'm getting tired of wearing panties that are either ratty, too big*, or both. And maybe I'll even look seriously at BRAS. *_* Also, I really want a proper standing IRONING BOARD! The small one I have is fine for clothes, but for taking care of large quantities of satin, it just doesn't cut it. And as if all that weren't exciting enough, I need to buy a... brace yourselves... a SPACE HEATER!!!
Ooh, be still, my beating heart! *swoons*
But feat not, I'm sure I'll manage to spend some of my money on frivolous things. Like... shoes! :D Except that shoes aren't frivolous, because both of my favourite pairs of flats are falling apart, what with all the walking I've been doing, and I always feel shabby when I'm out in public and am not wearing Cute Shoes (TM).
AH! I just remembered that tomorrow is Friday! Yay yay yay! :DDDD
* Apparently, I've lost a bit more weight, which I noticed because two weeks ago, I had to make a new hole in my belt. And even though I'm now at 34-28-38 1/2 (down from 37-31-42 1/2 two years ago -- losing G has meant losing a lot of unnecessary weight! :D), I don't think I'll ever fit into the size small bridesmaid dress Anna ordered for me. Let's just hope their sizes run a bit large and that the skirt is full at the hips. :}
