LOL!! *waves very vigorously at mrscmr as realises that have very much missed the DFD's*
Been busy working but occasionally lurked. Don't like to use MSE at work as like to maintain the High Fuluting image that I currently portray and not the skintoid I really am! LOL as if!!!!

fulutin' ..... haha! ah but if the world really knew about us all!
well hit asda this morning... was a little crazy in there. spoke to an elderly lady and felt really sorry for her, but checked she had family to help her out ... all was fine.
BIG snow arriving later... i fear the schools will be closed again next week. this is starting to interfere with education.
shocked to see the roads even m40 not properly clear last night, more snow last night in pockets - just dusting, currently -3 on car. dear mother [always ready for the blitz!] stocking up on bread mix... not sure things have come to that but i resisted the panic buying scenario! stocked up on donuts instead.. much more comforting than a cabbage!
feeling really anxious actually... not sure why. and the cat is like a loopy thing, she needs to go out but will not ... feel like she needs picking up and shoving out the door... she is being tooo naughty for words.
hope you are all managing to say warm, cosy, toasty and have supplies and power.

Well, I am sitting here, having done my errands for the day, now I am starving hungry and wondering if its too early to have my dinner?? If I eat it now, what will I have later? I am already craving crisps and the house is Bare. Not a crisp in sight. We have choc but not crisps. A GG needs crisps. Needs them now. *Ponders if can be bovvered to walk to local shop, but then would have to break into the shiny £2 coin in purse.........*

hmmm not going anywhere fast here... snowed in.
neighbour trying to get his merc out ... duh thats pointless... got it stuck 2 weeks ago in the last snow...
we are lucky we gonna just sit it out for a day or so. cancelled drs appt though.
how everyone else managing?
Hi Mrs CMR
Well, here like everywhere else, the schools have been closed, we've had a lot of snow, but its been even worse over the last two days. We are along the South Coast just on from Brighton. I am getting worried as I have not been able to get out since thursday, hence not working out and about. Doing what I can indoors. Did £1K in sales last week but Kleeneze have not been able to get the delivery to me yet, and even if they had, I would not be able to deliver the goods. I can not walk with my stick as that slides along on the ice aswell so offers no firm grip. Am thinking I will try to get out today. Im thinking the ice is covered by snow so that is better than waiting til the snow goes. A friend bought round a few bits on friday but when she offered of course I couldn't think of everything and we do need silly things like toothpaste, and loo rolls. Milk too. I owe her £8 so far as I have no cash, and I can not bear to ask her to help me today when I have no means of paying her back at the mo. So going to venture up the road in the cxar and in the words of Susan Jerffries, Feel the fear and do it anyway!. Take care Mrs CMR. Well done so far..My debts at LBM (2009)Grand Total £161,983.77.(Incs everything, mtge, cr cards, loans)
May 2013 £124,080.27= £37,903.50 paid off WOW!!!!! Well done! There is a guardian angel out there! :AI'm visualising success, debt freeness, and happy days!:T0 -
wow pos and focused! 1k in a week thats tremendous!
yes i know the south coast has been hit hard ... parents are in east sussex and i get daily reports.
luckily no snow over night... i think it is thawing.. the icicles hanging off the house are huge!
still we are snuggly and thats what matters.
be safe everyone! xx cant wait until spring!Highest Debt £581,000 Nov 08 and now owe nothing! yes really! I have learnt my lesson the hard way!
