    At least I know I will have some lovelies reading along with me too!

    Been in a fairly good mood today, for the last week or so I haven't had the dreaded feeling of doom in my stomach that I have had for nearly 6 months and am actually starting to feel more like the girl I was before the split which is good.

    I actually signed up as a subscriber to match.com today as they offered me a deal for 6 months for £20, well I would spend that on a night out anyway so thought what the heck, I am not really looking but might be a nice way to chat to others or find someone in another 3 or 4 mths or so!

    I need to post my SOA which will come into force from 25/01/2010 which is my next payday, Dad needs to decide how much he wants from me for the bills and food.

    Then I will only be paying out for the cats insurance, Sky (moved my account to my Dads), my phone bill and my braces but only have 3 more payments for them anyway of £100.

    Brace should be off in 2010 too around August so thats another positive! Must admit I will be glad to get them off as was ok when I was in a relationship when they were fitted in August 08, now feel a bit silly! But they have worked wonders so will feel more attractive once off anyway

    Thanks sweetie! I am more postive, even though I have had a few contact blips from him that I shall try not to mention too much less contact has really helped me (again I thank O2 for changing my number so quickly!!) and think being back with my daddy dearest has too as I feel safe here and don't need to worry about bills etc :)

    The cats love it here too which makes me happy cos they need a more settled time after being moved twice too this year! Bless him

  • Wishing you much happiness and all that you deserve in 2010 my lovely. Will be back as of 2010 myself and probably start a new diary myself.
