    When I have come on the PC it's been to do job hunting....still no joy there, it's tough out there at the moment. Dont think I've ever been out of work for this long (4 weeks).

    I'll try catch up on how you are all doing over the next few days.

    Love xx

    Waves hello

    Am in the struggling camp tonight just had an on/off argument with myself in the car when out picking up the mutt. The 'no you're not drinkings won'. Away to take soem time out and read my Living Sober book before I tackle more work tonight.

    Home safe and sound now - thats something eh! Thank god no ones here in the flesh am in a carp mood

    I had chilli/kprawns and rice for tea - lovely but still grumpy!

    Glad everyone's OK.......sneaks off muttering to self.......

    T2GU and others (:)) well done on another AF day in the challenge - ignore my grumpiness it is directly corrrelated with not acheiving much at work today.

    I will decorate my office in candles and hope my stinky mood shifts.

    Waves to E - good advice on the OS threads about juice making!

    Fay, light your candles, get your best stripey stuff on & snuggle up warm. Some days just go better than others so just let this one go free-cute-smileys-299.gif

    And well done for winning the AF argument :T:T:T

    S'possible, cos it doesn't help. However, I'd say it's probably sun/wind damage from being outside a lot...more moisterising is probably your best bet.

    That being said, like wrinkles from laughing etc, some things are worth having cos it's a sign you're living your life & having fun :D

    I'll have to hunt out other skin nourishing things for you, but wrap them better this time! :p
