*sneaks in*.... confession time - after all those NSDs I've spent a bloomin fortune today and all on ME:o. Bought a couple of jackets, a dress, a top, a necklace and a bracelet... and I don't feel guilty either! They are almost covered by my quidco money and well... a girl needs some pretty things sometimes;)...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Amongst it there is a bracelet that I was promising myself as soon as I cleared the debt and never got round to buying so I feel I deserve it:D.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Yikes - 3 jaffa cakes = 2.5 points! Still within my daily allowance but makes me think how many points I would have scoffed in the past without noticing:o.
NSD so far but have only been to gym and docs so now waiting on DS coming home before hitting the supermarket (he'll be delighted).
I noticed as I got into the car this morning that the crocus bulbs are starting to come up:D. Gives a wee glimpse of hope that spring will be here soon.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

We have just ordered pay day pizza:o in fairness I have only had a cheese bread bun all day and a banana so if I only have 1 slice with some salad then I wont beat myself up too much.
Snowdrops are pushing through and a few tips of daffodils here too. Saying that I was snowing here today again.But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
DS not feeling too well so no supermarket tonight...just researched the idea of payday pizza but at 4 points a slice:eek:no chance:D. I think there are some low fat sausages in the freezer so those, some mash and peas will have to do me!
Please don't let it snow here again! it was rotten, couldn't walk anywhere safely.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
