Hey Ela - you got your diary back! So pleased for you.
Did you go down the gym for your free induction in the end? I used some of my Christmas present money towards a few personal training sessions (expensive I know I know but it was treat money and I was leaning towards and iPod!) I had my first session on Friday and since then I have not been able to use my legs! It's ok when I'm standing up or sitting down, it's just the inbetween that hurts so much I want to cry (in fact I have cried, a couple of times). Half tempted to sack it all off and finish off the leftover celebrations instead!
Anyway, glad you're getting your self back on track. I'm looking forward to your updates. Promise to try and work less and spend more time on here in 2007!

hello darling thought Id check in and see how you are going?
I saw you were tihnking about growing lettuces? You HAVE to do this its SO EASY! Plant in march time, you can get seeds from wilkos for less than the price of a bag of leaves from supermarket
get a plastic tray ( i used the ones you get mushrooms in ) and fill with compost and sprinkel the seeds on and water. VOILA! I did these on my kitchen window sill & they paid for themselves 10 times over last year :beer::beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
thanks lynz am looking forward to it i just dont know exactly what to do but lettuce sounds easy it's advice like your's i'm needing to be truthful..and thanks for the breadmaker idea mines has never been off ....i used to love making it but it took too long but it's alot faster now ..i dont have a fast bake like yours just a normal morphy richards but it's brilliant ...am looking into jam making in the summer ...0
