I know I'm a bit late but I'd like to join in with this too!

1. Learn to get up earlier so I can stop taking taxis to work :eek:
2. Make packed lunch at least 3 times a week
3. Pay back the money I owe (approx £250 to my bf, approx £90 to the househould account)
4. Finish decorating at least one room of the flat (I seem to have started every room but finished none of them)
5. Sort out and give/throw away all the stuff I don't use from my kitchen
6. Lose at least 1 stone or a dress size
7. Sort out xmas presents online in advance rather than rushing round the shops the weekend before xmas
8. Save something towards a holiday next year (would like to have £500 by xmas)
9. Put SOMETHING into my savings account for a house deposit. Saving has gone very badly these past few months.

That'll do for now I think.

Tee hee! Well, you've already been there and earned the T-shirt. It's repeat offenders like you who make it harder for us to get in there!

ive kinda forgot half my goals! i'll have to go back and find my post and copy them in my phone.
anyway job interview went okayish except i never finished the admin task.......even if i do get it i dunno whether to take it cos its only temp til xmas and ive been asked to apply for another job starting xmas but id need training.......i dunno!
food wise - didnt eat til half 3 as i was so nervous and wound up my stomach was like a washing machine so not too bad
got some job application forms for my sister whos getting 'let go' in a few weeks
christmas window shopped on ebay which means i now have to delete about 30 things cos if i buy everything now i'll have no shopping to do for the next 3 months! (paypal not playing yet anyway)
walked a bit (in heels too!) but as wearing interview gear no room for pedometer so only guessing 3 miles?
noticed folk doing marathons? eeeeeeek! good luck!

2. Clear and sort study
3. Book gym and go Sat and Sun
