    Money can't buy happiness. But it can buy marshmallows, which are kinda the same thing.

    So what was your recent feel-good purchase? :)

    A watch I secretly got for my mam today for her birthday, she picked it out with her sister at the weekend, she said it was too expensive for me get for her and she was gonna get it herself!

    My aunty told me all about it today - I rang the shop and they have it held for me :D My mam just told me shes gonna go in tomorrow morning to the shop and buy it :D I just smiled and said ok whatever you want! I know they have none left now so she will be so annoyed tomorrow :D

    Nothing for myself really.Looking around I pretty much have everything I need/want.
    I usually feel good when I buy someone a present when I think they deserve it :)
    Then they give out to me for making them feel bad for getting them something :(

    I went to Dunnes' yesterday and got fleecy sheets and a new duvet cover.

    I also bought new pyjamas, dressing gown and furry ankle boot slippers.

    Got home, dressed bed, had lovely shower, into new night attire and had me a sit-down on the couch. (While electric blankie and heater did their work)

    Ate some soup and bread.

    Hopped into me toasty new bed


    Slept 12 hours straight

    Awesome.
