    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.

    yes i am pooky, fingers crossed it will be almost finished tomorrow, we have run out of the small brown tiles so it won't be completly finished till we can afford to get more.

    the only snag is they are 34.99 for a box of 100 and we only need 12-15:(.

    need to start ebaying again this week to get them, cause we are skint after being on hols

    Hi Claire,

    I got my 11k word uni report handed in today - lots of people helped me.

    Linda's chickens are doing well.

    Butti had eye surgery so is now mistaking teenagers for trees.

    Bookie and Luc are doing well at work.

    Elfen is getting a new place on her own

    ummm... someone else want to take over on what else I'm missing?

    Katsu did the chicken update Linda - never fear - we've got it all covered :D

    Butti-mate of mine was once so desperate for choccie (we've all been there!) that she rang a taxi firm,and paid them to go to all night garage and deliver it to her!

    Have left DS and mate in charge of a marquee fitted out for wedding tomorrow....there's loads of bigger teenagers circling round the outside like sharks...:(:(
    Debt-free...and staying that way...
