    You've gone now, but that sounds great - just that couple of hundred pounds, and you're good to go. Excellent!

    Had a busy day today.

    Had car serviced,then onto Tesco for a couple of bits,then onto a couple of car dealerships looking at a couple of vehicles I'm interested in for the next cab.Just so that I'm prepared,god forbid that this one gets wrote off!!!

    Then back home something to eat,washed pots,did some washing and drying,had tea..then walked to the DRs ...they gave me patches and some mini lozenges..so will be giving up tomorrow when I run out of cigs.

    I've managed to follow my WW plan today.

    I've just washed the pots from tea,put some more washing in and cleaned the bathroom.

    Time to chill now for a bit and have a bit more to do after.

    Am going to do the housework bit by bit.

    So today's the day, Taxi? Go you! Do be careful of yourself, tho, you push yourself so hard, you're giving up ciggies and working on losing weight at the same time, AND mega debt busting - you need lots of resources to do all of that.

    Cheerleading starts here!
