    Hi all,

    Zero, Zilch and Nada done today.

    I decluttered my little one off to bed, had a glass of wine and some chocolate whilst watching the TV and registered on Match.com :eek:

    Glutton for punishment me. :rolleyes: But seriously, if I dont talk to some (hopefully) normal, nice men, I fear i will hate all of them forever and ever.

    I will fly tomorrow, but can you have kicking boots and mules at the ready in case im slacking.....I really want to finish my room xx

    Good evening!

    I've survived the first day back at work - think I might try it again tomorrow... Got no chance at all of keeping up with the thread this weak, so I'll dip in and out if I get the chance. Sorry if I miss anybody's news - good or bad. Here's what I've managed today:

    Level Three
    Clean the oven and hob - wiped hob
    Clean out the fridge.. you do not need furry food! - threw some old yogurts out

    Lol, yes but lets not get ahead of ourselves! I have registered! I have yet to talk to anyone, let alone meet anyone....:eek:


    Even if i never meet anyone, but chat to some nice guys online, it will have served it purposes in convincing me that some men do deserve a place on 'Mother' Earth. ;):D xx

    Thanks for all the hugs and thoughts.

    I am thinking about changing my user name to something either more positive or unrelated and that name gets me down, it reminds me of how I felt at the point I joined the site.

    Any thoughts on the following?
