    Was -12 overnight here, school is impossible to reach so another day off. Wish it would clear here though, it's fine for me but dad isn't earning and January is always a lean one :(

    Have sold two books on Amazon which is good but may freeze posting them!

    Just had an early lunch of warmed up chicken tikka with pots and rice from last night, its really warmed me up but my feet are like 2 blocks of ice still and I have a couple of chilblanes on my toes too:o:o I have always suffered with them due to poor circulation.

    I might have to go out tonight with OH just to get some heat from the pub:rolleyes:

    Has everyone posted on the how much have you paid off in 2009 thread.
    Having passed £1 million we are trying to get to 2006's total of £1.6 million.

    I'd not do the total any good at all!

    Done the shopping - me and parents now have bread, milk, meat and er wine!

    Hi guys...........I don't often post here, but I really need some support right now. I feel like I've been kicked in the goo***s!!!
    I had a really weird dream last night about my exboyfriend, it was our wedding day - really made me feel weird! So I text him just to say hello and he popped in for a cuppa (we are still friends), but after my dream it did make me feel strange.
    To top it off my neighbour opend my credit card statement by mistake. She dropped in round, and I was mortified as she may have seen the balance on it. She then called my ex boyf, but my current boyf's name. And all in all it was a shambles...............Needless to say I'm feeling rubbish.
    So if you have any sympathy chocolates, cake, biscuits comfort food then please send it my way!
    October make £10/day currently £11.02
  • Beanie, I have added somewhere in the region of 60k debt and cleared zilch so ...........
