    they just don't get it, do they?

    Not in the slightest!

    Think I should wait a bit longer until I go for my run, still feel full!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I have finally got around to ptting the £660 in loose change from the brownie bag packing ready to take to the bank today. I have time to drop it off at the shop before parking the car - too heavy to carry the length of the town.
    I don't think the bank will be very happy to see me somehow.:D

    No, I haven't even booked in for a cut yet! :eek:

    I might go on the spur of the moment and see if they have a slot at the Center Parcs salon this weekend otherwise I'll just keep putting it off for ever.

    Hubby just popped home and I was explaining about the new bag and the tag, he looked at me like I was utterly mad!

    I said Why am I even trying to explain the importance of the tag to you?

    Just logged in for my lunchtime fix only to find the daily chat on page 2, must be a very quiet day.

    Well it is grey and overcast in lovely Belfast, work is quiet and I certainly wish I was somewhere else, anywhere.

    Afternoon, Sammy, the dress is not too bad. Are you having to pay for a spray tan as well :D
    Miss Twit went in for her exam this morning and now is back home and in her pyjamas.

    Hope Bookie is having fun with her book scanning :D

    Postie van just came with my Radley purse and Ebay bargain Radley briefcase, it's tag is missing though. (I knew this when i bought it!)

    I was a litle naughty :rolleyes: and emailed Radley saying that the tag from my other Radley has been stolen and gave them the model & batch number etc.
    A beautiful new turquoise tag arrived today as well :T:T:T

    My bad?
