    I"ve drawn my 1st tree!:jMy 1st buffer zone target of 84 pounds.

    Also decided what I want to achieve by the end of the year.
    Thought that would be a good step in the right direction MG thank you for the push. I am recovering from M.E. and have to do babysteps anyway - had got lost at the crawling stage!

    Good Luck for tommorow.

    Teapot positive vibes to you! KC I'm totally with you on the having more experiences with my money thing. I'm not into 'stuff' really (though do like clothes and make up!) and when money was really tight I bought very little stuff so that I could do stuff IYSWIM.
    I have to confess that I have always lived and crave a very sociable life which revolves around friends and fun, and also seeing my lovely brother and parents when I can. The extra cash I got with my new job will go on seeing them more and doing more things and any extra from styling will be the same. Do need some new clothes to finish my lovely capsule wardrobe as well though and a few bits neede for the flat then that's done!

    Oh, MG, bet you're excited for tomorrow! :T Good luck! :T
  • MG - have a fabulous day tomorrow and report back with minute detail about your meeting with Mr Big in the flesh!! :) Have not been posting this weekend, but have been reading. You are an inspirational lot.

    The universe threw me a curve ball about a couple of things this evening. However, have found work arounds for the bits that caused a problem, and am sending positive vibes out to the universe for the week ahead. I have an extremely busy schedule at work for the coming week...and it is a little bit scary. Not sure how much I am going to be able to get on here to post... but I will be reading and following the blog as often as I can as well.

    Good luck to us all! :)
