Hi
After my little outburst here a couple of people have suggested I start a new diary.
So here we go.
Today has been a bit better, I had a good night's sleep and as with many things everything seemed better in the morning. I have some items on Ebay finishing today and looks like at least 3 will sell and I'm going to try and list a few more later.
I've booked another week off work :T so better now and the new year October is the only whole month I'm going to be working :cool:.
But I have finally made my appointment to see the asthma nurse
although still need to call the landlord about the guttering though
.
Right so here is to the new diary and trying to make the most of life :beer:

Good on you for taking positive action to make yourself feel better. It may seem like small steps but you feel better for managed to complete something.
And if you deal with the regular things that need to be done, like visiting the nurse about your asthma, then you know if something unexpected comes up then that's all you have to deal with. It makes coping with the unwanted & unexpected so much easier when you know you have all the day to day things covered.
Keep it up

Evening all!
Well I sold another 3 items on ebay :jwhich is adding a little more to my fund.
Been to visit a friend and her new baby boy, who's gorgeous. Shame that the weather is so bad, it feels more like nov than august here at the moment.
I had a really good nights sleep, although must have slept hunched up as my neck really hurts today :rolleyes:.
Other than that had a really quiet day, Was going to pop some more things on Ebay, but I might just chill out instead. I know that's bad of me!
hope everyone is ok xxCurrent debt - £16,300Debt at worst 17/03/2011 - £18,067.62:eek::eek::ANot going anywhere else, ever again :A0 -

Could the dress be marketed as a ball dress? Might have sold better for graduation balls a few weeks ago, or maybe around Christmas? Or you might get lucky and find a bride with only one bridesmaid...Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0

I'd not thought about christmas.... Hmmm I might give it a go and then if not hold off until christmas.
Just relisted some items which hadn't sold and fiddled the prices a little. I don't know which I want more, the money or the space it frees up!!Current debt - £16,300Debt at worst 17/03/2011 - £18,067.62:eek::eek::ANot going anywhere else, ever again :A0 -
