Addiction to the MSE website

wendiewoo

I have a BIG problem with this site not enough hours in the day to sit and read all the posts ::) I need to get sacked from work andf foster the children out!!! ;D

I am addicted to this site as well. My poor hubby and kids keep getting their dinner late as I get side tracked reading and replying to messages.

Ha. I started a really similar thread in the discussion thread. I have just been trying to find you the link and cannot find it.  ???

It's HERE ;D

Unfortunately it just brings it home to me how bad I am - could remember the thread and had a fair idea of how many pages back in DT it was :-[
On a serious (kind of) note - I have started to feel guilty if hubby comes in and sees me on here and have taken to having other sites up as well so I can click on them and not look like I'm glued to here all day :-[ :-[ :-[
My worst day was when I sat for a solid six hours on here, other days I was close to essay deadlines but still couldn't resist having this on as I was typing it up.
Now I try to be more disciplined but it is very rare for me to not 'check in' every day and I'm probably still clocking up a couple of hours - no wonder my house is a mess ::)

I'm beginning to embarrass myself as well by starting every sentance about buying stuff, insurances etc with 'well on Martins site / moneysaving expert it says.....' And if I use someones 'online name' when I say who said something I just sound crazy!

I do that too ;D
I work at home so I keep the odd spreadsheet minimised, ready to bring up when he walks in. Sometimes when he comes home from work, he brings me a cuppa then asks if I want anything to eat. He must think 'Awwww, she's still working' ;D ;D

Thank god for that, I thought it was just me being a wierdo!

So many times I send people links / tips etc, and they just ask "Where did you FIND that" and the response is always MSE. I even gave my cousin the Money Diet for his BIRTHDAY! :-[ well.. if I'm living with him...

My cupboards are stocked with things bought on vouchers, my wine rack with joining offers cases and samples drop through my letterbox daily..

Keep up the good work!

TQ

You all seem like my second 'family'- I probably spend more time with you lot than my hubby and get no hassle or grief!

Just remembered that I was dreaming last night of Cathy. Where on earth would our paths cross I here you ask?? I was in a chip shop and she handed over the VINEGAR to me. I just knew straightaway who she was... Nothing said, but we knew where we had met!
