Skint Spice's journey to being less skinty and more spicy

skint_spice

I managed to get myself to the gym for swim and sauna - via asda where I bought some cheap baileys:o... Sorry Lou! Found the swim hard going at first as my muscles seemed to have forgotten that they like swimming... was ok and steam room and jacuzzi were fab! Feel better for having dragged myself out of the rutt and saw a shooting star as I walked up my path:D.

OK - the six week plan I was working on is going to be an eight week plan instead as that will take me up to me being officially another year older...have been watching a lot of aunty Gok today and have decided I need some work doing! So a mixture of aims...

1. Paint hall
2. Paint bedroom and buy new blind
3. Get rid of EVERYTHING I haven't worn in over a year unless I love it! (Have lots of clothes I was going to slim into but don't think I would even wear them now:o!) Not sure if I'd get anything for most of them:o but will try on ebay free listing days.
4. Lose a stone - starting weight 11st 12:rolleyes:
5. Get back into doing some exercise at least three times a week - even if it's only a walk round the block it's still better than sitting:D!
6. Have bathroom fitting organised by the end of the eight weeks and enough money to pay for it!
7. Lose the guilt and buy some decent clothes and develop goddess plan:D...
8. Try and make some extra money - aim £200.

And aim to get to end of eight weeks looking more like this :j:D:j than this :o:o.

Walked to shops and back and will walk to folks later so that will be 4 miles today:T. Bloomin cold though - brrr!

Have done the beading and posted the cards - now have lots of space as I've put away the mitre box, tool box etc... wish I'd done it as soon as I borrowed the saw:o...

skint_spice

Well the Graze box arrived... and it's ALL gone now:o...


Was feeling a bit hacked off with my neighbours earlier but then realised that it's only another six months or so and I'll be gone:j:j:j. Have been here five and a half years so what's another six months:rolleyes:. Must behave myself spendywise though.

Graze box thing...do I have to cancel or did I just get two after the free one? I am soooo rubbish!

You need to cancel your deliveries otherwise they will keep sending them.
