    Morning all! Am feeling :j and :T this morning. Bank are withdrawing my overdraft at the end of the month, and the plan that OH and I put in place to get it paid off is working- it will be back in the black by the end of August. Also, one of our loans has just come below £1k, six more repayments and it's gone:beer: then it's serious snowball time woo hoo.
    So, feeling financially happy, but physically pants... have got a weird spasmy type thing going on with my back- like a fluttery sensation in a muscle I pulled a few weeks ago. Anybody think I should go home from work in case I damage it further?? :D No? Oh ok :o


    shell - i recommend much wincing and ouching in pain and look like you are being a martyr....... then someone will eventually tell you to go home cause you're annoying them!

    and well blooody done on the debt busting!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    I'll have a look in the garage in a bit - I'm sure we've got a camping kettle somewhere. I cant afford it, but I fell in love with a Le Creuset one on Amazon, pretty but not very practical :D

    everytime i call them i get another holding letter the next day (one came yesterday i got all excited thinking it might be an offer!)....It said we are dealing with it..... they are outwith their deadline number of weeks but they have advised ombudsman and they are allowed to run over as long as they notify customers......

    so still waiting! but pushing them!

    Great news with the debts!

    I've remembered another task for today, get this bl00dy annoying song out of my head - Teenagers by My Chemical Romance, I can only remember one line. It's been singing away at the back of my mind for three days now.

    They say that teenagers scare the living **** out of me
    They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
    So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
    Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

    I love that song :o Sorry

    Well, from my list today I've emailed to resign from the committee, and thought of another person/support worker to email, and done that.

    Not buying clothes on ebay became buy gorgeous cheap monsoon skirt on ebay :(

    On course to see psychologist.

    Still haven't got that damn song out of my head.

    Not sure tonight's meeting is happening for me to resign there. Don't want to resign, I've been on the committee for three years and chair for two and really enjoy it. But it's not fair on them when I'm so unreliable at the minute, and I can always rejoin if things improve.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
