I'm certainly feeling better. One reason being that after a certain amount of unnecessary hoop jumping I have my new prescription and don't have to worry about Doctors for another 3 months. I also ordered and paid for my glasses. £233 for both pairs, but they will be very nice - and purple! They will arrive on the 5th, apparently, and at the same time I'm getting a free 7 day trial for the new toric daily contacts. They don't go quite up to my prescription, so probably won't work for every day, but they'd be fine for going out. I've cancelled my monthly contact lens contract, which along with my cancelled moblog subscription will pay for the glasses in a year. And the remaining monthlys and the free dailys should cover me for all my goings out until the end of February. So after some boring calculations I feel better about my finances for a while.

And we got rid of the tumble drier and some chairs, leaving only a chest of drawers, a monitor and a wardrobe (plus a fan heater and a dining table bit for the Ivar shelving, but we could just throw those out). I may have takers for the monitor and the chest of drawers, too.

And it's my Icecream drinking party on Friday. From 8pm, at Laputa. There will be icecream and syrups and wafers and sticky liqueurs and you may combine them any way you like. There may also be margueritas...

An ice cream drinking party sounds absolutely fantastic, but I'm afraid I'm several hundred miles away :(

cheers yeah, the chest of drawers looks good, thanks for the photie. Has mathie e-mailed/phoned to arrange a time to pick it up? oh, and how much do you want for it?

Yes, I've mailed him. It will be good to see you both...

Oh and it was going to be £25, but I'm flexible...

I'll come on Friday, along with [livejournal.com profile] tormentpid .

But I'm not sure that it'll be before 8:30/9PM due to other commitments.

Cool, you may miss out on some of the icecream, but there will still be stuff to drink...

An ice-cream party sounds like a wonderful idea! Unfortunately I'll be back in Dundee again by then though :(

I would have loved to, but I start work at 8pm on Friday :-( Hope you have a marvelous time.

:-( Do you want to pop by earlier in the evening for your corset? I can do you sneak preview icecream...

My younger daughter went to a great party last week, held in a club, with a chocolate fountain. I looked on the web for companies doing this. I need to find a friend having such a party in London.....

re party- I wish!

Getting finances organized is enormously satisfying, I think.
