    Ooh - LOVE IT!!

    Good evening!

    I had a momentary bell ringing when DD was tantruming when I picked her up from school. I need to get tougher with her as yet again today she went way too late to bed and the longer it takes the more tired and crumpy I get.

    Anyway have managed day 24 please GG.

    Stats: Pledged: 627, had 358 which is 57.1% in 76.7% of time.

  • Thanks for the comments about giving up smoking and drinking at the same time. Made me feel far less guilty as i enjoyed a ciggy reading!

    Been a bit absent as new job is taking a lot of my time but it's great and I'm really enjoying it. Also nearly finished 'This charming man'. Very good. Must recommend 'Rachels Holiday' again if you enjoyed 'This charming man'. Kettles on the boil for my hot chocolate, and off to bed to finish it (hopefully) Not going to tempt fate but the one month AF date will soon be upon me. Feels good.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:A blanket with sleeves - the perfect solution to cold arms sticking out from under a normal blanket to type on here! It's the answer to my prayers...:D


    Edited to add: I think I need to find a man before getting the blankie, cos there'll be nae chance of pulling one in that! ;)

    evening, I'm just popping my head round the door to say goodnight as I'm off to bed.
    No alcohol for me tonight, was offered but didn't want any (my sinuses are killing me) so that's very good.

    Sleep well everyone
    Trying to keep in budget.
