feeling very thoughtful here...2009 was a good year in lots of ways but did have it's lows. Have opted to stay home tonight with DS as I'm feeling rubbish and been at work today so if I make it to midnight that will be an achievement but at least I have the freedom to fall asleep on the sofa
! Roll on 2010!
In 2010 I will lose 2 stone, run a 10K, do up flat, meet a lovely man and move! (PMA folks.)

I'm feeling very optimistic Lou - not entirely sure why as job situ is looking a bit dodgy but maybe it's just that I feel more in control than I usually do.
Hope it's a good one for you and your family. xMortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Went to cinema tonight and had resisted DS's offers of choccie ALL day but then he took yogurt covered raisins to cinema then decided he didn't like them! Needless to say I took care of them
... I think my love of them has been mentioned in the past... would have been a waste etc...
Walked down to folks today and it wasn't quite so slippy so even wore pretty boots for once:). Two miles round trip so that's today's exercise!
DS off to his dad's tomorrow so I SHALL go to the gym!Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
