Hi CMD! Nice to have you back.
Might put some pics up when I get home tonight.
I'm not talking about moving/job hunting...
I'll let you know when something's happened.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -

I know it's mostly my fault (well entirely) and I wish I'd have never announced it cos people keep asking and I just don't want to talk about it, so thank you! And the day will come... Actually, bf promised he would buy me a sewing machine when I got a new job so that should be bit of an inspiration.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0

Finally I've been for a run. Only 3.6miles. Going to take it easy to start with as it's been over a month since I last run. Aim - 3 runs in total this week.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0

Hi Tirl
the napkin flowers look good - perhaps you could use them in birthday or xmas hampers as per the celebrations thread - beware tho it can be very addictive.

Have started running again so that'll help. Went for a 3.6mi run on Monday and again today. Once more tomorrow and then that'll be it for this week. Trying for 4 times next week.
Planning to go camping this weekend, walking and mountain biking,just need to finalise plans. Hope weather will be ok.
My flowers don't look quite as good as Dana's but I'm pretty pleased. Mostly it was good to some crafting. Made me feel good and like I achieved something.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -
Was supposed to go for a run after work yesterday but didn't have time as my friend was coming for dinner and I was on a late at work.
Made this awesome chicken dish from Jamie http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/chicken-recipes/chicken-breast-with-pancetta-leeks. And then the best roast potatoes I've ever done from bbcgoodfood http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1303/ultimate-roast-potatoes. Was really pleased. And was really nice to catch up with my friend. Last week she was in Majorca for a walking holiday.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0
