Guess how much????

Anybody that follows me on Twitter may know I am having quite a bad time of it lately.

Last year was an absolute pig, all of it.

Anyhow, I wanted this year to be better. Apparently though, wanting something doesn't make it so.

I'm going through a stubborn phase at the moment.

Hubs wants to go out for a meal tonight with the kids and his Mum.

I knew straight away that his Mum would say, 'yes, but I'm paying'. Which she did.

I told Hubs that she wasn't and I would pay for it for his birthday. We could call it the family birthday meal out.

Now thats really nice of me.....yes?

Except I have no money, being the stay at home mum is financially limiting......and Hubs and his Mum do.

I have been to the bank today and withdrawn enough to cover the meal but now I am short.

Yep, I am stubborn alright.

Well when I went to the bank to draw out most of my worldly goods I popped into the charity shop and found these 2 cushions.

The one at the front is a proper patchwork cushion and is just lovely against my orange settee in the studio.

...................and the price of this loveliness..................40p each.
