Not sure what is going Dinah, but I hope things work out and there isn't any tension about it at home. If there is, you're away for a week come Sunday so no worries!
I've just been looking for a 'hideaway' style desk in an attempt to please OH and found this :
It's only £995, do you think OH will buy it for me?!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0 -
Loving the desk Birdie! Oh it's just an issue where brother is going to uni, parents earn too much so he gets the minimum loan, but they are on an IVA so they don't actually have a spare few grand to give him per term, and don't know how to fund him.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Oh dear Dinah, get yourself sat down with a glass of water and some chocolate (for sugar to perk you up after blacking out!) and stay there! No pilates for you tonight!
Off home now to beg for the desk! Byeeeee!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0 -

And so are we! Go home, take the rest of the week off of money making and get yourself better. Whats the point in spending you pennies on a holiday if you feel rubbish? Hope you're feeling better soon! Couldn't you stop on the way home and get yourself some grapes - something you can pick at to keep your energy levels high but low in calories!
That hideaway desk is lovely Birdie! No DOTD or did I miss it?0 -
DOTD is now desk of the day, how the romance has crumbled!
You want me to take an extra 5 days off from moneymaking? Already having shakes at the idea of having to take 2 weeks off!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

haha! If you can wear a massive tampon for your wedding dress, you can pull a desk behind you!
Well, tonight you need the day off to get better. Tomorrow you need the night off to watch Grand Designs, Thursday you need to toast my 18th with a cuppa and some biscuits, Friday you have to err... have a cuddle with NIM! Saturday you have to pack, and cling to your mother (atleast I would be at the thoughts of going away for 2 weeks) and Sunday you're on a plane! See, your time easily filled.

Thanks Girls for all your best wishes I will pass them on to DD. The meal was lovely thanks Cinny. I don't feel very well today I think that I am starting with something hope it's just a cold and not the flu. I haven't got time to be ill at the moment.
Lara - Good luck for friday, I will keep my finger crossed.
Dinah - How much do you get paid for doing a review on Dooyou and is it really worth it for the time it takes? I keep thinking about starting but I haven't looked into it yet.
I don't get pay until the 28th and the sad thing is I can't wait just so I can pay more off my CC's and then adjust my signture.Total debt Feb 2012 = £54354.11 😳
😁Debt Free and you can do it too0
