    Im bored too Beanie
    Fed up of looking on same websites for cars
    Fed up of looking at facebook
    Fed up of nothing being on TV
    Fed up of not being able to buy anything in the sales
    Irritable moi? lol!

    That's exactly how I feel, except I'm not looking for cars :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    Funky fish, nice to 'see' you-welcome x

    Well no pressies to speak of really but I am seriously enjoying OH here so thats good with me :D, I also get my bonus in Jan so thats going to be great!

    I do have a cheque coming from mum but she forgot to post it :p I think I will buy some more running gear with it :D

    My sister decided not to send any presents - am a bit annoyed with her considering I spent a lot on my nephew, but hey ho what can you do ;)

    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.
