Not good.
.
Sounds like you needed it. thus, very good indeed. in fact, as you have trouble sleeping etc, maybe you should try continental hours, with a proper nap? sometimes to do more you have to do less, IYSWIM.0 -
Yeah, that sounds like what I need to do! I cant remember when I slept more than four hours at night. Have arranged to go out with my friend at half one and will plan to rest some more when I get back!
I hate being so tired, and I hate that sleeping in the day makes me feel lazy,
but it's a good point that sometimes doing less means you can do more!
*will write that in recovery book, too*0 -

Ooh really? Hurrah!
I need to stop getting distracted by links on blogs. Have just stumbled across the People Tree website - totally in love with this and this If only I was rich!0 -
i like the sound of this recovery book

and yea, i know what yopu mean about sleeping..when i was at uni, one of the girls i lived with would have an afternoon nap every day, as part of her proper routine..i kinda wish i could do that myself but
1. i think the rest of the office would have something to say if i was snoring at my desk all afternoon :S, and
2. i can't seem to fall asleep if i try to nap during the day..or the night for that matter..
but daisy, i deifnitely agree with lost that it seemed like you needed it and therefore is a good thing!
ladyfalco, definitely will join you with the "embracing change in march" challenge
alex, yes definitely..take a look on the "old collections" on the website (if they still have that on the useless new website)..there were lots with plain soles, and then just the dog image inside..when they still did the black and white boxes...? i think..
also, i believe asos stock people tree stuff, they certainly used to.....0 -
Ohh Alex, baaaaaaad. I'm in love with that cricket jumper. I've seen a few come up in local charity shops actually...and whilst expensive for a CS, much cheaper from there than people tree so might put some pennies aside

Oh, PF, I have fallen asleep at my till at work before (was signed of sick shortly thereafter!)0 -
Sunny skies here, putting me in a good mood! I am hoping against all hope that my Martine Wester necklace arrives today *fingers crossed*
eBaying is also going very well, I sold a dress for £12 so am well chuffed! It's good to get rid of some clutter as well. Though I find it easier to sell toiletries (emotionally I mean), packaging up my clothes and posting them off to someone else is quite upsetting lol! (unless it's something I hate, then it's ok)
Love your shoes piratefairy, they are so stylish!

LOL, until relatively recently I couldn't get through the day with, if not a nap, at least a period of sitting down, quiet, maybe loafing about on internet.

Tara, yay ebay.
Lost, I have been like that/this before, I guess I've got used to pushing myself again but really do need to re-evaluate and slow down so I can carry on living my life on my terms.
You girls really have been invaluable as a voice of rationale for me lately

I agree, the recovery book sounds great
I am a hopeless napper, I always wake up feeling excessively headachey and grouchy with the world.
I've given up on the new website, it's hopeless! But they have IC printed inside them and the box is black and white with a dog on, so that's good as far as I'm concerned
ASOS do have some stuff and it's cheaper than the website but still not exactly in my price range. I have wanted a cricket jumper for a loooooooooong time though. You can get brand new proper jumpers for proper cricket for £16.99 (I've just checked, tee hee) but they're all acrylic and I think they'll be too itchy

well done tara

i'm going to fall out with ebay i think lol, i've made about £150 in the last couple of day - only £9 of which was from my things, whilst the stuff i listed for him have had lots of interest - grrr!0
