    And to you too elantan. X

    Well I had the day from hell at work. The team are just so chuffing sensitive and everything is a right old palaver with them. I have been in tears for most of the day and I rarely cry. Ultimately though work is work and I am so lucky that I choose to have so much going on outside of work that it will stay just that. It's all a learning curve and I am on a great salary now so just have to deal with it and I will!

    Spent another £2.08 on food today but that was all. My friend has landed at the airport and I am so looking forward to seeing him tomorrow. Be ace to see his lovely mum, dad and boyf as well.

    Had a good chat with my lovely mum on the phone and am going to see her at the end of the month for a few days. Will hopefully visit my cousin who lost her husband too as she understandably a bit low. Think Mummy and I will go to see The Kings Speech if it's on at her local cinema.

    Need to look at my bank account and piggy and watch a bit of Graham Norton before bed.

    Have good weekends all X

    Hi all, had a fab day and night out yesterday. My friends mum was so pleased to see him and we had such a laugh. I did buy some drinks but didn't spend as much as I thought I would and his lovely Dad treated me to dinner :j

    I didn't stick to the diet last night but am back on it today. Have decided to do the next phase for a bit longer as it's not so strict but with the understanding that I can eat whatever when I go out/to friends. I think this balance will keep me sane AND slim. I have now lost 8 pounds on it :j:j:j and my belly looks loads better.

    Got a long day with work tomorrow, I'm off to another store to recruit and need to be on a train at 6.30am :eek: Got a lovely new Elle mag to read en route and also a book and my little DVD player with Julie and Julia from Lovefilm so I shouldn't get bored.

    I'm off Tuesday and Thursday this week and going to my friends for dinner on Wednesday. This weekend coming is the one where I work right through and then I have the following one off.

    Money is not too bad but bought a few more groceries today. Will do a wee tot up later and update siggy then.

    There's £10.73 in my piggy which is good as I've only been putting money in since New Year.

    Just sold another piece of clothing on ebay. It hasn't closed yet so don't know how much but the minimum amount has been reached anyway. Back later X
