    thought i would pop on by for a lurk then read your post ... have you seen the challenge that is going on the main dfw board? looks like your doing well with it all and we could do with some tips ...

    re families oh where would i even attempt to start with mine ... i think all i can say there is ... you cant change someone else you can only change yourself ...and sometimes you dont even need to ... you just need to accept what has happened and move on ... no regrets no guilt cross the line and walk away

    What challenge Elantan? I could do with a new one! and again freaky - bt I have just literally posted the samething about you can't change people on FB.......it is so true and it is certainly not worth changing me into something I don't want to be - spent far too long doing that.

    Love you too Beanie xxx

    Had a busy day, driving lesson, went fairly well, I am not as worried as I used to be. came home had a read some lunch and then went shopping, paid in my 120 pounds of savings (100 in £2 and £20 in £1) plus an overpayment cheque of £87 pounds oh and £3.60 in 20ps!

    Then I went shopping..............

    new black sandals - £29.99 (old pair have died and are 4 years old)
    Dress 15.00
    Top 5.00
    scales (for e bay) 4.99
    Top 5.00
    bra 9.00

    £68.97

    I am almost certainly failing the 100 pound challenge. I have been giving so much to charity that I literally have nothing to wear. I am at the point were I hate clothes (cos I am now properly overweight) I wear black all the time m and s t shirts, I have two other tops one makes me look pregnant, no infact they both do. I have no idea what to wear any more.

    Anyhow I am pleased to report that I still have had no chocolate (it was close tho - nearly forgot and had an ice cream) resisted buying 2 more bras, silly shoes and various items that I don't need.
