Morning all.
Thought I'd start this as I have to whooosh soon.
Jobcentre again - hope I don't get the horrible young man again.
Hopefully time to pop to shops after (tights and Christmas bread) before worship meeting at 10.30 (planning Christingle and January Family Service).

Morning bookie
I have woken up in a very good mood and the weather is lovely here - it was just getting light as I walked in...and the parcel of xmas pressies I thought had gone missing in the post has finally arrived at my parents (phew!) so everything is good with the world...off to find some more coffee.
Hope it goes well at the job centre!0 -
Wet and miserable here.0

morning bookie and becky and all who follow......
i'm doing alright this morning... nothing to moan about anyway, which makes a change.
I would just like to say that Morrisions own Red Berry Fake Special K is as delicious as the proper stuff, and half the price...I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Morning everyone!
Seemed to have developed a mini-cold. blurgh. Luckily I have enough (asda own brand because it has the exact same amount of decongestion and paracetamol as the real stuff!)lemsip to keep me going.
Really excited about Friday, wonderful OH drives down, we spend the weekend at mine then up to his place to Christmas!
However need to ring up the guys doing his Christmas present and see if it will be done in time :eek:
Better get back to work - just thrown on a majorish project, again! :rolleyes: Why does every project near Christmas seem to be hyper critical? Someone will have to change the warning bulb... :rotfl:Sealed Pot No:721 started 05/08/09 until 30/04/09 Target:£100 - £60 Banked!

Hello all, dark and damp and cold here... but last full week at work, hooray! :j
Been very lazy for the last couple of days - tried to go for a long run on Saturday but energy was non-existent, so just took it easy for the rest of the weekend.
Going for Christmas lunch today at workDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
Hi All! I'm in a reasonably good mood this morning. This is hopefully the beginnning of my last week being skint and worried about debt all the time..
I get paid on Friday, which thanks to my DMP with the CCCS should be the first one not to get ripped apart by lenders..
This week will be tough, as I have VERY little to get me through, but when Friday comes around!!!! I might actually have a smile on my face.
Also...it's raining here in AberdeenPretty damn cold.

Morning all,

Hope everyone has a good day.
...Linda xxIt'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.0 -
