I knew it would happen. First O had it, then J had it and my colleagues had it so it was only a matter of time before I was struck down with a cold. I could feel it brewing over the past few days but finally this morning I woke up and felt like rubbish. Not only rubbish because I have a sore throat, delicate stomach and my body's doing the whole hot/cold thing but rubbish because tonight I was meant to be out with J having dinner with some of my dearest friends. With a little one, evenings out are few and far between so I had been looking forward to tonight for weeks. That, plus the fact I have been desperate to try the restaurant hosting tonight's festivities and I am especially peeved. I have been looking forward to eating that pulled pork for ages!
I am consoling myself by wearing my favourite snuggly clothes and watching episodes of Silk on netflix. It's kind of helping but not really. Never mind, hopefully I'll feel better soon and I can arrange a return trip to the restaurant with my lovely pals.
In other news, work is going well but is exhausting and I feel like I am haemorraging my hard earned money on commuting to work and paying for childcare so that I can be at work. It's the first time in my life I've really had to really pay out to go work (or thought about it) and it's frustrating me. My frugal quest therefore continues as I search for other ways to save money. I am also hoping this will get me into better financial habits as we will hopefully soon be moving into our renovation project and will need to save some serious cash to do the work we want to do. I am in no way as frugal as some but I'm making improvements and will hopefully become more self disciplined and less wasteful in the process. If anyone has any tips on saving money, I'd love to hear them :-)
Anyway, I am back off to my pity party. I promise to stop writing so many moany rants soon!
