Divorce - Get My own stuff

Nice weekend? Well I can simply said I just had one - it doesn't have to be nice. When my weekend involves uncontrollable spending then it is not good.

Uncontrollable is an overstatement though - but I still had to painfully part with some quids to get some speakers. Actually I was looking for a computer cum study table and one of those fancy swivelling chairs - if they can't give me one in the office it doesn't mean I shouldn't fulfill one of my fantancies.

Well that was my plan - I didn't get exactly what I wanted so my eyes strayed to this speakers for my laptop - 12 Watt. I know I needed them - I love listening to music. The ones 'we' had before I moved were not mine. Actually there are so many things I need at the moment as I try to gain some level of independence. I thought I was saving at that time but that's not the case - I was addicted (or less mildly) developed a taste for good things - it didn't matter whether I could afford them.

No wonder divorce cases are bitter - one has to adjust life again. So while you are at it I would advise you to get your own stuff no matter who you are living with. I'm 30 quid down before I even get the desk I'm after - this will be a beautiful week (Did I say the rent is also due today!)




I know I might be a nutter - who dreams of seating in a large office, clear desk and a leather executive seat.
