Pippi’s pulling up her stripey-socks for the final sprint towards the Good-Life……………

I'm still here - and going to blog on something plant-y at some stage so keep your eyes open!

Sounds like ticking along nicely - I take it you are keeping an eye on your income re Tax/NI etc if that applies to you? I'm trying hard to put aside 25% of my earnings each months but this month is very squeaky on that front....on the bright side putting aside as much as that *most* months will mean I have a little cushion there should it be needed.

Full marks for the journey combining - you've reminded me, I need to check out petrol Prices site to see where is cheapest for diesel round here.

Just sprinting past - so sorry to hear your news Chev.

Glad things are a bit less tight Pippi.

Hya all just a quick one...Shadowline has already started :eek:

T&M are having a half price veg seed sale...but it is ending tonight at midnight! Just thought some of you might want to have a look...I have got myself a few things for next year

Having a manic time atm, but looking forward to tomorrow....Malvern Spring Show...all day, bliss!! Don't even care if it rains! :)

Thanks for the knitting suggestions...already have dishcloths, wrist warmers, scarves and fingerless gloves on my project list.

Take care all...will get back here sometime over the weekend.

Exciting? Us? Nah!!!!

Low Self esteem? You? Quite probably - but now you know about it you can fix it, so give yourself a shake and tell yourself you're fabulous!

Planty-blog now up by the way - nothing exciting but I intend to do a bit more routine stuff on there now in a bid to make good on my promise of updating more often. (just been over to check it only to find it's gone.....apparently post from yesterday have been temporarily removed....better be flipping temporary!)

EH - I read that as 'panty-blog' :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:

(((starnac)))))))) remember that you're comparing your own one life to all of everyone else's lives together. while you look at think 'they're doing this, they're doing that' - in reality ONE of us might be doing something exciting one day (and then not again for a few weeks), and another ONE of us doing something exciting the next day, and it creates the illusion that we're ALL running around being exciting, but we're not

And goodness, if we only popped on here when we were being productive, we'd never be here at all! :rotfl: Or at least I wouldn't :rotfl: I like to report productive days because it makes ME feel better - but I have plenty that aren't!

(hope you're having one though Pippi! :T)

thanks Cheery and EH.

Cheery you've probably hit the nail on the head so to speak. I must stop comparing myself to others
