Sat-a-day

Jan 17, 2015 10:35

Ho hum. Not much has happened (as always) but I am still busy at work. There was one day when it was just me and this other girl on our desk/table, I put my earphones in and listened to the radio on my IPod - I don't like her. Not many other people do either.

I heard my neighbour a lot last night, and I don't normally. I think he had the TV on loud as I just heard a mans muffled voice. Then I woke up at 1am because someone was trying to start their car. Then I just heard my neighbour again. It sounded like he was the phone because I'd hear him, then there'd be a pause and he'd laugh or say something. God knows who he was on the phone to that late at night.

I planned to hibernate today, as snow was imminent. There isn't any, just a frost. So I've been cleaning, put a washing load on, and after lunch I'm going to dye my hair and have a shower. Cleaning always makes me feel horrifically dirty. Bleuch. I've got some stuff to send back to ASOS, and I've got a parcel at the post office, but I think I'll have to do that in the week.

I know I say this all the time and I mean ALL THE TIME but seriously, I need to sort my ass into gear when it comes to my finances. I have gone crazy this month already, buying a kettle, those skirts from ASOS and I just ordered some work trousers from them too. Oh, and something from Ann Summers. I just logged onto my account to check my rent had gone and how much money I had left and I'm £10 overdrawn. Oops. I need a payday.

I was hoping to pay off at least £100 a month on my credit card. It's got £1,300 on it and the moment so that's going to take me at least a year, and that's if I stick to the plan. I guess I could see about getting a Saturday job, but I'm wondering if it's worth it? For one days extra pay a week, plus I'd get taxed. No, I just need some will power. Thing is, because I don't smoke or go out or drink I splurge online. I'm going to cut back to taking out £50 a month cash, and spending that money on 'extra' things.

I suppose everyone is feeling the penny pinch in January, Christmas doesn't help anyone in that respect, does it? I think this year, even though it's eleven months away, I'm going to tighten the reigns. Especially as I've had my MOT and Tax which will be due January next year too.

My birthday is in March, and the plan at the moment is if I get any cash I'm going to bank it and that will most likely go towards my friends Hen do. She texted me the other day, I texted her back but she hasn't replied. It takes her about a month to reply though. Seriously, a month.

OH MY GOD THIS WASHING IS TAKING FOREVERRRRRRR!!!!
