  • Hi everyone, sorry for my absence the past few days. Been trying to talk to OH rather than having my head in the PC! He's back offshore as of today, so I'll be around more.

    4 more please shaggy.

    That was one more last week and Sunday to Tuesday this week. I do feel like having a wee glass tonight though. So I'll wait and see.


    After working full time last week and having to try and cram in more to my short week this week, I'm exhausted. Thankfully my two sons are tired too. So bedded by 7.30 hopefully. Then Waterloo Road and Masterchef :D Just hope Masterchef doesn't make me hungry. We've nothing tasty in the house. Shopping gets delivered Friday though. Mind you, with me trying to lose weight, I don't think I bought any nice treats. Might have to go to the shops tomorrow for my fix of maltesers!

    Miss P~That's cruel luck about the windscreen. I hope you resist the wine if you think you want to ((hugs))

    I feel like I have achieved a lot this month. It's been a battle at times, but I've been ok :D
    Need to start again :o

    Evening all - sorry to have just 'disappeared' but I've been off on holiday for a few days in the land of no internet connection!

    I have 5 more days to adf which brings me to [COLOR="rgb(139, 0, 0)"]15 in total please.[/COLOR] TBH I'm not sure I'll make my target this month but I am pleased that I have not been excessive.

    Lurkio, I would be very interested in a lent challenge - I usually try to give something up for lent so why not the booze?

    Hope you are all doing fine
    Trying to keep in budget.

  • Morning all

    Look at the time - 4am again. Bleugh.

    Well, last night I didn't resist the lure of the wine. Bloody stupid as quite broke till Friday. Just seemed to hit a self destruct button last night. Nothing major. Just a little meltdown and an early night:o Poor OH had to deal with poorly Piglet for me.What a cr*p mummy I am.:(

    Today is a whole new day though.

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.
