Todays blog is a good old fashioned moan! (not much new there then)
Top of my list are “Electrical items! It started with the kettle 6thAugust, two days later it’s the hoover, followed the next day by the oven! I believe(d) in the saying things come in 3’s so I thought that’s it over then. Wrong! Then my phone gave up having any noise or images & my laptop screen snapped & is hanging off/half on. Leaving lastly (or at least I bloody hope so) the washing machine that has been falling apart slowly/ is shot too & I gave up on it tonight!
- The cooker still hasn’t been replaced & we’re managing with the hob (works on certain settings) & the grill/top oven.
- My phone although silent still gets me by
- My laptop (as I said) is still hanging on, but I can’t move the screen/close it.
- The washing machine could be a simple part, so I’ll look into that tomorrow.
Money…. I’m pissed at not having any!
My tips haven’t been bad this Aug & I’ve been trying to save to buy Eastar, yet each time I get some it’s taken for petrol/ dinner money etc. I should easily have £370 yet only £120 remains. My purse is the same.. I put money in & when I go for it there’s zilch. I know Martin is great at taking a £20 for some milk & never putting any change back. Yer I know *sigh* I’m a lucky woman to have a horse who costs ‘us’ about £100 per month! I just want to save & for over 3yrs I’ve spent my tips on household stuff, so feel I should be able to hoard it & save for my horse if I want too!
Ohh Money again… This time Birthday money & yes I feel awful already & I haven’t even written it yet, but fuck it I will anyway!
If you read an earlier post you will already know that for my birthday I was given a nice cheque off my boss & told to spend it on something frivolous & fun! Reality… Jamie needed new school trousers (3 pairs purchased) plus rugby boots as his were at least two sizes too small & Ellice needed new school shoes, so it was bye-bye birthday cash. Its Martins birthday in a couple of days & the boss has given him the same nice cheque to buy what he wanted… And what is that? A sat-nav! I can’t think of anything worse to spend cash on at the min. If nothing more than because I hate the bloody things as they make me jump every god dammed time & the voices really grate on my nerves! He needs new work boots so why not buy those? Because stupid twit here will find the money for those when he’s moaning his feet are all wet. He also wants some new jeans & tops but will he buy those? NO, a sat nav is what he has his heart set on.. Funny coz mine was set on some nice size 6 Toggi country boots, which somehow turned into size 10 Rugby boots amongst other bits!
Anything but a sat nav, PLEASE!
I don’t have a gift for him yet but the way I feel at the moment, wrapping “Step-by-Step Cooking” (book he got me) is seeming more like a plan by the second! Well it is more suitable for him & I'm skint.
Other idea is a washing machine part with matching instruction book :D
I know, I'm a delight xx
