Toots - hugs; hope you're feeling better now

soappie - well done on the writing

SS - hugs for yesterday; yes, it's alarming, but at least there are people like you around to help and advise or things could be even worse

carlsberggal - thanks for the info on the products; will prove useful for decluttering!!

Dusty - hugs; sorry the trip wasn't good

Jo - at least you know where you stand now; hugs

rosepink - hope you're feeling better; hugs

I need to book a hotel for when I go to see Take That next Friday :j

Jo - at least switch your TV etc off at the mains half an hour before you try to go to sleep.

Frogs... there were loads of baby frogs outside the office today (they'd obviously come out of the lake) about the size of raisins with tiny legs... unfortunately facilities forgot to put up the signs about them, so I think most of them got squashed

smokers - if you find it difficult to give up because of the constant fear of failing, don't actually 'give up', just don't smoke as much. I've been smoking more recently due to stress, but I'm still nowhere near even a pack a week! I generally only smoke at work (see, it's stress), and even then, if I'm busy, I don't have time. I NEVER smoke in the house, and if I buy cigarettes, I give them to my work smoking buddy (who gets through far more than me), so that I don't have access to them if he isn't around. I find I'm then too lazy to do anything about it if I do feel like one...

Princess Jane - plenty that needs doing here if you're bored

I've packed my bag for the long walk tomorrow, but can't help feeling I've missed stuff out. I have a spare top, fleece & waterproof, water (to be filled tomorrow), nuts, dried fruit, suncream, hat, handcream, spare socks, blister plasters, savlon, cash, credit card, lip salve, phone, mooncup (well, you never know!), walking poles, car pass, number etc... I've also put in my walking sandals for the moment, as I'm not sure whether to walk in them or boots... Ideally I'd like to take them with me so that I can change over if I want to, but they are quite heavy! I need to add my lunch tomorrow. I'm using a 20l rucksack as it has a proper frame and is held away from my back, which my little ones don't do.

I'll have to get up at 6 to get ready, so I supposed I should go to bed now!

Thanks it was just stressful for the adults but for me sadder that the kids did not get much out of it.

Right kitchen is ship- shape, cats are contained so off to bed.

See you all tomorrow.

Greenbee - the boys like to have tapes/cds on at bedtime but I always switch them off at the wall when I go to bed - I hate white noise with a vengeance.

Valli

dashes in squinting as is struglling to see straight at night again.

I have been busy. I am gutted I cvan't keep up and catch up but I must be realistic. Fluttering for me until those reports are typed and a myriad other jobs done. My life journey feels like two steps forward and one step back at the moment.
TV broke (this is the second in a week) so I have been to Morrisons and bought a branded but a brand I have never heard of for £199. Should help the peepers though as the screen isn't fizzing like the last one was...mum. bless her, has offered to help me out with it...have declined.
I hate being the 'poor' one in the family...

Please forgive me if you are going through !!!!!! and I haven't said anything - I log in and read the last page only...because I know how much our virtual online support is worth as you lot cheer me up and make me feel better when I need it.
Ah well it's only half ten - time for a HHI...

toochoosey

Gonna say goodnight now, just in case I get side tracked before 11 and will see you all sometime on Sunday xx

pigpen

*throws donkeys, asses and mules at all the lazy slackers*

Get your act together flybots you are just not doing good enough...

froddington

greenbee - good luck for tomorrow; hope the walk goes well


I'm off to bed now as my eyes are beginning to hurt, and I have 10 reports to write over the next 2 or 3 days ..................


Night all, sleep well x

So I read a book "The little book of quitting" by Allen Carr (ISBN 0-14-028900-3) link to amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Little-Book-Quitting-Allen-Carr/dp/0140289003/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1246050132&sr=8-1 -

You reminded me that I have a book on the bookshelf, just dug it out! Its called "Dont stop smoking until youve read this book"
Clearly Ive never read that book, then!!!:rotfl:

oh Lordy!! What HAVE I started! Well they do say you shouldn't rush into things...:rotfl:since the forums are down soon, how bout we go off and have a think, maybe devise a personal plan of action and if [STRIKE]I[/STRIKE] we decide to go ahead, we'll fix a date to quit.

I'd better go read that book then...


Night lovelies....
