Improving my life in 2011

Sorry you're not feeling well. Hope you're planning on having an early night to try and sleep off the headache.

I hate having to use my iphone for anything other than vodafone calls. I tend to be really sneaky and use my parents landline. I do pay them for it though!

I was off to bed but got distracted by Climb for Kids on RTE (Celebs climbing Kilimanjaro for charity). Enjoying it so will stay up until it's over.

Hope you're feeling better today Mags. When you're working (and other times, of course) do you drink plenty of water? It's easy to forget when you're busy, but that's precisely the occasions when you should be drinking lots. Dehydration can cause headaches, as I know to my cost.

Hope you are feeling better x
I also hate having to use my mobile to phone those stupid premium numbers, very annoying. A few times i have managed to find an alternative number online so it's worth checking out

For the Uk it's www.saynoto0870.com - not sure if it's works for Ireland

Thanks hun :A I wasn't drinking water at all at the weekend so dehydration could well have caused that horrendous headache. Must make more of an effort with the water.

What a great idea. I always ask if they can call me back but sometimes they refuse. Thankfully I don't call these numbers very often but I hate it when my phone bill goes over what it's supposed to be.

Todays bargain purchase was a pair of black multiway sandles/flip-flops for €1 as discussed on the Primark bargains thread. I've been making very regular trips to Primark recently but thankfully I never buy much.

I need to make a hair appointment again. The roots are really bad now. The Bumble and Bumble powder does a fantastic job of covering them but it really is time for a hair appoinment.

I had just paid for my coffee when the lady behind me said she'd use my loyalty card when she paid. Said she doesn't have one because she's not a regular customer. Such a small thing but her good deed made me smile I got 2 extra stamps and you only need 4 for a free coffee!

Hey Mags

Great news with the coffee stamps, its funny how the small deeds can make us smile.
Must do more...

That's really nice about the coffee. Sometimes when I'm in Tesco and the person in front of me says they don't have a club card I'm almost tempted to ask them to use mine!! Never have though!

I've been trawling Amazon looking for shoes that are fairly neutral and comfortable (and reduced obviously ).

I saw these in Debenhams today for €46 (originally €115) but in black patent. They look like they could be useful for the winter and seem to be really good value.


Or these but they are still €81 in Debenhams and not reduced further. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dune-Womens-Slingback-S11L-Scs0058/dp/B004GGUGT4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1311274831&sr=8-1

Any opinions?
