    I have been ploughing through the ironing mountain and watching my new dvd Julie & Julia which my hubby bought me yesterday.
    It's a lovely film!
    Ironing nearly done and meatballs bubbling away in the slow cooker!

    It'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.

    I need to go make lasagne ready for tomorrow night but might have a snooze first. I am out for dinner tonight - nothing posh just a guiding do. Then I have to do the sandwiches in the morning. got everybody for lunch on Sunday as well.
    I'll be glad when it's Monday.

    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
