Cat 4:30am are you serious? Is there no other time you can go, just I would hate the having to get up at that unreasonable hour to put you off completely!
unfortunately, yes I am serious. I used to get up at 5.30 when DH went to work and go jogging at 5.45/6am, home by 6.30am and then showered, breakfasted and dressed ready for going to work at 7.30pm. But now Evie's here I need to go jogging when DH is home so he can watch out for her and I hate going out during the day / evening!
At least if I'm up I'll have a chance of getting on with things before getting Evie and getting ready for workDFW Nerd Club #545 Dealing With Our Debt

Hello, we had more snow last night!
...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 -

Please send the snow down here, DD would absolutely love it and It would annoy my sister who has just jetted off to Verbier Skiiing (yet she couldn't come down to see me, annoyed moi? )
Did the tesco Shop and they had a few offers in store which weren't on the website so managed to do all shopping for £28 and used £5 voucher so came in under £25 I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Afternoon all! Hope you are all having a good day! I've been to drop DD1 and 2 at work so went into Sainsubry's (stll had 1 £12 off a £60 shop!) Took a list and thought I would spend around £50 - hoping that this would last the rest of the month - came to £93!!! well £81 with the £12 off - bad enough though! Did get a load of meat and fish reduced though. Came home and sorted the freezers which are now jam packed along with the cupboards so really shouldn't need anything else except fresh stuff and veg for the rest of the month and most of next! Might try a storecuboard challenge next month!
Came home - made brocolli and stilton soup for me for work this week. Then had a lovely lunch of reduced smoked salmon and king prawns! except kids kept stealing my prawns!
Got no motivation to do anything else today - but need to make a start on my assignment and make a roast dinner for tonight! Need to take tree down too! Oh and do another wash and some ironining and mend my DS school trousers and .... the list goes on!0 -
Sally you did so well getting your shop so low! how did you manage and how much do you normally spend? I really struggle with this!0

Can I just come in here and scream please?But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0
