I did open some wine:mad:. Also spent some plastic, £3.50 on bits n pieces ( I blame Dinah as she shared an Asos offer with us all on her thread:p) and £65 on dog and cat food, I forgot to add on to my allowed list and is rather essential! The food will last a good few months though:D I order it on line as cat has to have special food and it is half price on line compared to the vets
So day 6 and I've had one spend day and one alcohol day. Only one spend day and three alcohol days remaining!!

Warning Warning, TMI post below!
I'm really fed up today, have had to cancel two well paid MSs because i'm not well! I feel dreadful, spent a lot of yesterday in bed, started off with a sore throat then turned in to the 'two orifice (sp?) rumba'. My mouth tastes like a teenage boys dap!!
I have a really busy week in front of me and could do without being ill:mad:. I will see how I am tomorrow but may have to cancel my extra shift:mad: and consider what to do about my interiew:mad:.
I'm really not very good at being ill, i'm not used to sitting down doing nothing. I have had a cup of tea and a very small bowl of porridge, am feeling rather sick again now. Think I will go back to be with my bowl Sorry I know this is far too much information.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Aww, thank you both.
Annoyingly I still feel carp today so have had to cancel extra work tonight:mad:. Worse than that I was woken by my mobile ringing offering me last minute MSs at inflated payments:mad:. I have had two of these calls from different MS companies this morning...I could weep with the though off all this lost money:mad: I am down by at least £100 so far. Why oh why do I have to be ill this week
At least while I'm feeling this ill Idon't have the urge to have a drink! every cloud as they say:rolleyes:

Still no spending and no alcohol, more to do with having 'man flu' than any great effort on my behalf!
Does anyone know how to change the title of a thread please?

Cold, Cold..this is no cold I tell you, its major man flu!! It must have been the office party though;). If only GG hadn't egged us on.
I'm borred now, not well enough to do a lot, feel 'ok ish' sat down but whenever I do anything I can't stop huffing and puffing! Like a 60 a day habbit!! Imagne what it must be like to get man flu when you smoke! OMG dreadful!
My mouth is still like a teenage boys dap and my tongue is a seriously weird colour:p(see!). My body has never had so little food put in it! I'm sure it will go into shock soon and I will find myself at 4am in front of the fridge having eaten everything in sight whilst sleep walking! Or I will wake up on the set of I'm a Celb, realising all the celbs have gone and it will just be me, a bunch of MFW and rice!!
