What a difference a year makes! I treated myself as we had a small lottery win last week £72, OH got some paints & a t shirt, and I just treated myself to the Soap and Glory special offer in Boots (down from £60 to £25 whoo hoo), I ummed and ahhed, not used to treating myself any more!

Was nice to be frivilous [:D]

Nice to have a treat occasionally.

nothing wrong with that Fiona, life would be incredibly dull if we couldn't treat ourselves now and again

oh no I'm the decorator in our house, my OH is the artistic type I'm more practical, I've always been the decorator, he makes me coffee and cleans up afterwards!

he doesn't do that kind of art, his style is very individual, he's sold some stuff already we're going to really push it next year. But unfortunately if he painted your wives horse it would look more Picasso than realistic [;)]

i know just what you mean littlefi, bought a new top last wk(clothes allowance £), loved it in the shop but nearly killed myself with the guilt of it - almost took it back!

shows how attitudes to spending change eh?

you still dancing round the room kev59? enjoy.
Nothing stays the same...everything changes..hang on in there!
