    Hi Choc!

    Thought I would pop in and see how you are doing, well done on doing the extra 3 hours, it will make a difference!

    Sorry to hear you are feeling drained, I honestly think the constant heat doesn't help, I know we shouldn't moan about the weather but I could really do with a few days that are much cooler, I am starting to struggle with the heat I must admit.

    Hope you have a good day today x

    Afternoon,

    On lunch break so thought i'd post quickly. Trying to stop logging on whilst working....bad distraction!!

    Feel like I have my mojo back, more get up and go back and generally feeling a lot happier....funny how things go isn't it?!

    So no lists for me today, just getting on with things. Been thinking about budgets and so on....I do too much thinking and not enough doing :o

    Went for a run for first time in ages, managed a little over 3 miles so pleased with that - I actually found it relaxing (apart from the heat!) and it was a good way to burn out some stresses and think about things....may aim for one tonight too before we get rain or something!

    Nearly the weekend - woo hoo! Got to get some glasses this weekend as lost mine whilst camping and haven't turned up....was hoping they'd fall out of a bag or something whilst unpacking but they haven't :(

    Forward thinking and little list of upcoming expenses that I know of.....(for my records so please ignore if boring!)
    • House move (all covered)
    • Camping trip with friends (mid July)
    • Camping trip wend with OH (Sept)
    • Wend away Prague (dec)
    Now this makes me feel good as I have something every month apart from Oct and Nov to look forward too. Oct is my bday and OH and I would have been together for 5 years so that's something and Nov a clear month. Naughtily we've decided to go to Prague wened before Xmas as we always go to London each year to do xmas lights, see the winter wonderland etc and it's actually not that cheap so we've decided to go to Prague and wrap up warm, visit the xmas markets etc....something nice for us to look forward too as can't afford a week abroad etc....need to start putting some pennies aside to fund these trips though.

    Anyhow, enough waffling from me, I could go on forever!!

    Have a good afternoon all xx

    Hey Moose/Happy :hello:

    I've heard good things about Prague too and think it'll be lovely with christmas lights, markets and hopefully snow....nothing beats wrapping up snug and walking around!

    Happy - hows those figures coming?

    I'm feeling really positive at the mo, can't quite work out why but i'm going with it :rotfl:
