    Glad you got back home though CMD. I feel like I have a flu not cold, but I've managed to soldier on...Hope it'll be ok over Xmas though. Just feel really tired all the time and my eyes are so sensitive I haven't been able to wear my contacts for 4 days...

  • Thanks CAFC and Tirlittan,

    Think I might email my boss and tell her I am going to bed.

    I'm sure all the stress and standing waiting in the cold has probably brought on the flu.

    Hiya!

    Minimum payment of £27.77 went out today. Also made an extra payment to cc of £27 which is amazon money.

    Will really struggle till next pay day as very little money available due to doing lot of stuff whilst my dad was here. :(

    But, have updated my payments and sig and.......


    I'm under £10k!!!! :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j


    Still need to shave off 5months of DF targets on sig, but that's what the extra cc payment challenge of £1900 is all about and have made a good start with it by paying £111 extra off cc already. :D

    hi CMD glad you got to Ireland okay - hope you feel better soon

    Well done Tirl on being sub £10K - hope you feel 100% soon too

    I feel under the weather but then it is that time of the month too so that doesn't help. Only got this pm left to work and then I am off.
