Right Buffy target-mania lady methinks you need to watch this http://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_on_vulnerability.html
(I've just got her book today. See, one of my glorious imperfections is that I fibbed about giving up self-help books)
Hurrah for bonfires :j

sorry folks, I am 90% sure it is because my period is STILL due but I am so miserable today I can hardly pull myself together enough to go out and get the stuff I need.
Honestly I loathe and detest feeling like this. I know in my head walking to the high street would help I know have to go out, but I just feel like bursting in to bloody tears. I have deleted my ex's text messages in an attempt to get him out of my head........
!!!! it. My back hurts, my tummy hurts, I have more teenage spots then a sodding teenager. fed up.
see you later

Hugs Buffy - I can relate to lots of how you are feeling. If you do nothing else, at least try to get the paperwork sorted for work - it WILL help you feel more in control and get you a bit more sorted for when you go back.
My work is staring at me as I type...

1. Virtual sealed pot - to be paid into each week - rounding my bank account down to the nearest tenner - aim £500 pounds by Nov 15th for present shopping. Current total £19.80 + 2.83(31/12/10)
- counts for the January challenge for the Thrifty gifty challenge. As part of the saving money for Christmas 2011 I have also joined the two Christmas Challenges - thifty gifty and money making, so it is back to surveys, cashback and the like!
2. Sealed pot - change to be put in each Friday, when it is full it will go on the loan(Or into savings if I am too slow!). 3/4 full.
3. £365 in 365 days - to be saved for the sales in 2012 (or a holiday or if it makes my debt free date sooner to go on the debts) - will be saved in pound coins and paid into my savings account with Barclays each month. But will have to be paid in to halifax first cos they are open on Saturdays hmm.
4. £2 coin - save up 200 pounds to go on the loan.They will have to be paid in to the bank too otherwise I spend them.
5. All 2ps and 1ps to be saved and paid into what I laughingly call the house fund! Its an old bank account from when I was a child it has a paying in book! Everyone starts some where!
6. I need to e bay - have joined the !!!!!! Ebay make me money in 2011 or else thread, plus the first challenge in Jan is make £50 (thrifty Gifty again)
7. And lose weight. LouiseJ and her amazing thread to the rescue!
will be edited later xxx
Above are my Money challenges and MSE challenges for the year.
My New Year resolutions are as follows
1. To be debt free as soon as possible.
2. To lose 3 stone
3. To be organised in terms of work and home life, marking, remembering birthdays and seeing friends
4. To get a good kind thoughtful boyfriend who loves me for me.
I honestly would not be here now if it wasn't for this board and my friends. I love you all so much and you mean the world to me.
Love Buffy
