Yes am fine Mol just crawling myself to holiday & nothing significant to update really
Scuba guy did contact me & said that the octopus was 40 but was happy to just leave as is & left + feedback so thats the end of that which is a relief! Just got my Allen Carr stop smoking book & have to say I feel quite nervous about it but it will be good to crack it but anxious not to put on any weight! The advantage with finisning the ebay stuff is that I can get back into a routine of excercising when I'm back from hols...waddle for life on Sunday...hope it goes OK as have done NOTHING to prepare...

Felt in need of an update...not a great DFW week as so pooped/busy that have brought unch nearly every day...had to go miles today for work so an extra tank of petrol, lunch, bridge toll...all adding up to £50 so will have to use CC for tomorrows holiday shopping but will pay off next month so "free" interest unlike O/D which I dont want to use...annoying tho but need new sandals and bag so cant do much about it...at least car boot savings will pay for hol money so will all work out OK - just annoying to use CC but before would have whacked it on without a thought & loathe to oay interest so some improvement...will have to have a serious no spend couple of weeks when I et back. Not helped by trying to run freezer down/defrost before I go away on Thurs (why do I set these impossible tasks...work do Weds & will have to work late 2 days to be able to relax when I go & not even thought about packing & must find passport...- are holidays worth it eh!!)...Feeling shattered as 250 miles driving today & worked a 12 hour day...keeping me going is that this time next week I'll be chillin in Turkey!! Yahoo!! Off to bed I go! Big hugs all...Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0

Hi ff
You job sounds like mine. I have two weeks off in two weeks but will have to work loads extra before I go and loads extra when I get back. No one does my job while I'm away. I also sometimes think its easier to not have time off:D
Have a great shopping day today and update us later on your buys.

Hi pink fairy! We'll I'm back & my poor feeties are killing me! Did very well in that I didnt spend that much...got 2 books - 11, pair of cheap sandals/flipfloppy things £8, t shirt 12 (M&S) and was sooooo good & resisted so many things - deliciously comfy sandals for 30 "not paying that", MP3 player 1/2 price (am sooo proud of myself!) and got a rucksack (multi purpose!) for 11 1/2 price. Resisted other clothes as now shop with the gotta be in love & even then doent always buy...(ie shoes!) so v pleased & spent about 60 below what I'd allowed myself so great! Instead of manickly buying had a lovely relaxed day with a good friend, good chat, nice lunch at chicken place (nandos) and didnt go over and dead chuffed as the first real shopping day since DFW & was a bit worried but managed fine! Yahoo I am a (sort of!) convert...did want to get books from library but now shut & no time till I go & was worried about getting oil on them...need to plan more time for going to car boots for next hol...Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1!

Well back from race for life - did it in an hour & 4 minutes!! Fine by me - the fastest (runner not waddler like me!!) did it in 17 mins! Much to hot & I dont DO running! Raised about 350 for cancer research which is good and will prob do it again next year and no doubt beat my time! No spend day too - mum treated me to lunch! Now just chilling (had a nice snooze!) and watching my mum take my skirt up - bless her she's done my mountain (ie my whole wardrobe!) of ironing!!! and no...she's not for hire!! Hope you al having a good one!Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0
