    Hiya Sweetie,


    Shame about the debt going up but am about to hit the same event myself & actually not going to worry about it now. Will make the minimum payments required & if there's anything left then will over pay, if there isnt then so what :p. Debt will still be there to make overpayments on come January :rolleyes:.

    Sometimes we can, sometimes we cant - whatever ;)

    Well done on the pound loss :)

    Am feeling very fat and frumpy - but can't stop eating :o
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!
    Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56
    Weightloss : 0/34lbs

    No, I actually think it's loneliness :o Am feeling pretty sorry for myself, feeling my singleness a bit too much :mad:

    Come on now Shoe Gal, think of all the good stuff about being single! And if it's not good, then make it be!!! Give yourself a good kick up the a*** lady, no need for wallowing. Think about all the couples who'll be out tonight sitting across from each other and not talking, cos there's nothing to say. Enjoy it all lady. You're doing grand X

    Shoegal - I wouldn't be upset with a 1lb loss. Weightloss is never an exact science and 1lb is the healthy amount to lose in a week so that is fab :j Slowly but surely is they way to lose it and keep it off

    Is there a specific thing which is making you feel lonely or just the occasional blues which hit us all????

    I'm going to start my 100 things for 2010 list soon and I find thinking about what I want to next year is really helpful and inspirational.

    Some things you can't change - or are hard to change - it can be hard to find a boyfriend (despite those rubbish magazine articles that promise one evening class is all it takes) and so sometimes it is easier to change the things which are in your control.

    Eg, for me - I'm feeling really creaky at the moment, whenever I get up after being sat in one position for a while I feel really stiff and makes me think of some old girl who can't up from her chair!! :rotfl:I really want to take up yoga and get back some flexibility and grace. So that is definitely going on the list.

    Last year I decided I would make a big effort to do packed lunch and I've hardly bought lunch out in ages. If I've nothing planned I'll rummage in the cupboards and can normally knock up some pasta or something quick to take into work the next day. Not exactly lifechanging but I know I'm spending less as a result and I'm also doing a lot of soups so I'm sure I'm getting my 5 a day.

    And as ever - remember the mantra - F off I'm fabulous (or perhaps for you - F Off I'm a Fabulous Goddess??:T)
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Oh sweetie, am sorry to hear that someone as F Fabulous as yourself is feeling unfulfilled.

    Probably not what you needd to hear but the Fabulous Feminist trio of makeup, souk & myself are out in force tonight & brimming with girl power & loving the single living thing.

    Good points :

    1 - Everything

    Bad points :

    1 - sex


    Conclusion:

    Sex isnt everything, so being single & F Fabulous wins :j

    Make up, did you post last years list on here? Tell me to p*** off if it's personal but that sounds like a really good plan. Might think about doing one myself.
