    No nice weather here - it's grey and dull!

    Good - it's the weekend which means I get to see OH

    Good - it's OHs birthday on Tuesday which means he is going to be getting all his pressie's tonight (as he works away during the week) and I cannot wait to see him open them. He was in Afghan for his last birthday and will be for his 21st birthday next year and so I am making a real fuss of him

    Good - Also going on a hunt for a Tux for OH - he's never worn one, but needs one for my work ball, and for a cruise we are going on so probably best to buy instead of hire - so excited to see him in it!!

    Good - my own ball dress from the birmingham dress lady is sat waiting for me at my Moms

    Bad - I am not going home to Moms for another 2 weeks - arrrgh!

    Good - No snow here yet

    Bad - Keep fearing it's coming, and it's making me panic!

    Good: I got a bargain on eBay for the vases for our table centres (8 big goldfish bowls for £50 GET IN!!)

    Bad: Money is tight until payday.
