    Hi Shoe Gal

    I've not been around very much recently, but I have been reading bits of your diary. You're doing really well! I know it's hard when work is a nightmare, you do long hours, come home and don't have the energy to do anything, but the bare essentials. It's not a nice feeling, that all you're managing to do is get through the working day, but sometimes that's all you can do when work is mad. Keep going and take care of yourself!

    Gwenx

    PS Your new Next top sounds fab and you deserve it :D
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Saturday morning at work - weird :eek: I don't usually work weekends but have been so busy I need to catch up :mad:

    Anyway. once I've finished I'm going to take my top back to Next, then I might treat myself - I have £50 of Arcadia vouchers and £5 Boots voucher :j

    You go and treat yourself, you work SO hard SG and are a superb person, go and enjoy your afternoon after work and look after yourself - think of the walking about shops as your daily exercise session - take stairs rather than lifts mind you :rotfl:

    Back home from an unsucessful - but very MSE! - shopping trip :mad: Changed my Next top for a bigger size :eek: but didn't get anything else. Didn't see anything I really loved - and I am trying to only buy things I love :D Tried a couple of things on, but didn't buy anything. Trying to change my image a bit - looked at loads of different stuff

    Did buy a hair colour though - gonna get my Mum to do it tomorrow :D
