    You are doing that freaky mind reading thing again - since I have had the exact same conversation with myself and given myself the same talking to re next year (hence the basics chocolate)

    :rotfl:

    Great mind think alike:D. Remember last year when we said 2009 would be our year? Well I think that 2010 will be Our Year instead:D

    Listen ladies I'm happy to live frugally, not buy loads of carp etc but I'm certainly not going without sex :eek: in 2010 so count me out on that one!:rotfl::rotfl:


    Dont panic souk08,

    it's not mandatory, it was a self imposed state for me during the second half of this year after some dodgy experiences ... dont ask :silenced:.

    I am bored with it & also fatter :rolleyes: but have to say my state of mind has stabilised, I am now sure of what I do/dont want & am preparing for my relaunch :D

    Hello Ladies :D

    Welcome back Bathgatebuyer :D

    I've been slightly absent as I had two assignments that were handed in today. Got another one for Thursday and then a presentation for next week and I'm home free.

    I've spoken to my mum and I'm not going home for Xmas. Will stay down here and try to get a job in one of the bars/restaurants that will pay double time for xmas eve/ xmas day. Hopefully one of my attractive lady friends is going to join me for xmas dinner before she flies off to Dubai with her bf lol.

    2010 will hopefully be a frugal year for me to begin with, but I should get my AUD$20,000 pay out sometime in August so from then on it'll be a craaaazy year :D

    Hello lovelies,

    hope everyone's had an ok day.

    I'm slightly ashamed to say that I'm having a G&T, on a school night :eek::D.

    Rather naughty I know, but I dont actually care :p. I'm quite happy with 'just the one' whereas with wine ... the glasses just keep pouring themselves :D.

    I had a nice morning at work, only one of the bosses was in & we share a love of music, humour, cars, countryside, chocolate & coffee so it was a very chilled start to the week :)

    I've not spent any money today so that's another NSD dealt with & I've done my 2 jobs, the smallest amount of ironing necessary, washed up & have tried to log into my amazon account to spend my free £20 vouchers but it wont let me log in :confused:.

    Will keep trying ...

    I have an announcement .... I appear to have mislaid seven kilograms of blubber!! :T I knew I'd lost a fair bit of weight after I found out about the cheating, but convinced myself I'd piled most back on, as I have been drinking rather too much and generally sitting on my backside. :o If I just motivated myself to train (which I love) ... This explains why I found walking up the small hill to work easier than three months ago: just need to pluck up the courage to have my colleague measure my bodyfat percentage. :rolleyes:

    Hmm, I am doing some internet shopping, so far I have £100 worth of toiletries and candles in my basket (well about £150 worth reduced to £100) What to do? :confused: I really want them:o. I am being frugal next year so this will be my only chance:o

    Er, I hate to be the one to remind you of this but .... are you not the same sarahb who has over £100 worth of toiletries already stashed away ?

    It's not about what you want, it's about what you need in order to achieve what you really want ( house) .

    Put the cyber basket down & step away. That is £100 that could be going towards your house.



    Firefox - that's brilliant :j Well done you :A

    I don't have any candles left and I love candlesicon9.gif. Plus the toiletries I have are of the hair and skincare variety, am running out of shower gel and body lotion. I need them so I can smell nice. icon9.gif

  • Sarah, do you need a 100 pounds worth? where will you put it all? and can you not get it cheaper some where else?

    (think House xxxxxxxx)
    Nevertheless she persisted.
