    hey babygirl

    i'm glad things are looking up and will be checking in with you to see how you're sticking to your goals. knowing you though, you will. you're brilliant at this!:T

    i'm good. still trying to be a good dfw :angel: i spent some time this week looking at the psychology behind my debt, it was a revelation! i am a bit low, but i think it's that low time in my biorhythm cycle so i know that i'll be up again soon. i take these moments in their stride and wait for them to pass. so i'm good.

    take care of yourself. looking forward to your updates.

    ok, SO just to update myself here

    Few things have happened

    1. I have bought a fan. It was 9.99 :beer: had budgeted 35 for a snazzy superpoweful one but they had sold out, so this one will have to do ( superdrug for all those swelteres out there) Had a much better nights kip last night - got to sleep about 3

    2. I needed something new for later in the week to wear, but coudnt face going into the sweatbox that is the london underground system and spending money as Im keeping the moths well and truly in my wallet. Result is, my mate gave me a top back that I gave her when I bought it from a jumble sale last year, and I was too fat for it. Now, Im skinnier, it fits fine- she gave it me back :beer:

    3. just sold another book on GM- another £3 coming my way

    4. just done another pinecone survey, netting me £4 in LVs

    5.Lloyds passwpord has kicked me out of the site YET AGAIN, and I need to rezet the password to give me access to the cash.

    6. We had a bit of bad news about a family member this weekend, so I might be away for a few days, we will have to see. Hopefully everything is going to be OK, I really hope so.

    7. Anyway thats it from me- just blogging to keep track of myself :)

    Hello all

    Well the last few days have been rather strange I must say.

    After I had mistakenly left some half chewed gum entirely in error on the bathroom sink,the lodger left some rather vicious notes in the bathroom and after a long discussion OH and I have decided that she should move out asap. She has just phoned me to say that she is moving out so thats good news. Clearly things havent been working out for any of us, she has been being rather unfreindly towards us for a couple of weeks in any case. We have her deposit to give her back,but puts us in a really tricky situation for paying off the sofas before the 0% expires in October. However, some things are more important than money in any event. And bang goes our winter holiday ( not the end of the world though, eh, dont NEED it)

    So its me & the OH against the world again!! I feel quite positive about the whole thing to be honest. Means we can get on and sell the flat as soon as we can. Im calling the housing association any minute now to discuss the valuation.

    So its been a difficult few days for us. but onwards and upwards, we are looking to the future. Again!!

    Leaving notes in the bathroom - very passive aggressive. I used to live with a guy who did that he was a complete fruit and nutcase. Best get rid of her asap!
