    Morning! Going into town in a bit to get the money ex owes me, just hope they have sorted out a counter giro for him. Then I've got yet more blood tests this afternoon.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Rubbish morning for me. Boiler not working, Im cold and getting a cold. Plus need to wash my hair!! LOL

    boilers always end up being expensive!

    I'm back from the school run, I called at Mossies for bread, paninis, croissants and butter, spent £5, then went for petrol and typically got my £5 points voucher!

    Now waiting for the fish man to come, he shouldn't be long! :T

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Some benefits from the DWP??? Nah,surely not Bookie!!

    Just had best friend come to a screaming halt on the driveway.Looking for extra morphine that I had here. Her pain is not being controlled at all now, she's numb down her legs and half her face. This weekend she will decide where she goes from here. Not good. Count your blessings one and all....you could be in her shoes.


    Sorry for the maudlin tone.
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    Oh, how I love the words, "Otherwise I'll have to close the account." £600 on 0% for 6 months! :j :j :j Everyone here (and Martin of course, though I doubt he'll ever read this) are complete angels and I love you so much for keeping me strong. :grouphug: to everyone.

    Right, quick wash then ring up my old doctors so I can get my NHS number to transfer to the new ones, letter in the post (might do this at uni) then another lecture starting at 1. Then essay work later tonight. I will not flag today, not in the mood I'm in. :j
