Pennies!!

I have been considering today the amount of money I want to save for this trip. I want to be able to go shopping. Buy some designer gear for the first time in my life!! After losing all of this weight, I think I deserve it! So I have decided that come May next year, when the weather picks up, and we are 6 months away from Orlando, I am getting a second job for the weekends. It'll bring in some extra pennies for spending and also keep me busy as I am pretty sure I will be really fed up with this diet by then! But May is what, 6 months away, I could lose another 6 stone by then!
I don't think I'm alone in this. I think Little Emma is pretty keen to get an extra income too!! Ooh its so exciting, and it's still so far away!

Girlie Trip!

Well, I have my list of definites now. Rache, Emma, Jen, Grace, Julia and moi! So looks like it's going to be a girlie trip! Woo! Two are for a fortnight and Four are for three weeks. I went scuttling down to Asda last week to get a Passport Application for Emma. So she's sorting out. Just has to get her passport photo's done and countersigned and send it off with the pennies!
Grace and Jen also need to get theirs renewed. Oh, and in clearing some junk, I finally found my driving license counterpart. Although, I need to sort that out. Change my address!! I only moved like a year ago!
Best news so far is that we have found a fly drive deal through Virgin. Still waiting till January to book it though. And then we can start looking at accommodation.
So everything moving. Once it is all booked, then I can start getting REALLY excited!

Oh and by the way, there is officially less than a year to go. In fact, going on the idea that we will leave on 26th October 2009, there are just 353 short days left!
