oh my goodness - someone slap me. Had a bad day and eaten 2 chocolate bars, half a pack of caramel digestives and 3 cans of diet coke today!!!
Dont know why I got a bit down - well actually thats not true, I do. Went to see our new offices yesterday and tbh the whole place is just amazing. However, I am sharing with someone who winds me up a little bit and when we saw our office, I felt it was a bit poor in comparrison to the others - long and thin. Identifed another room which might be better, approached boss (who is normally lovely) and she snapped at me and I felt just awful. Was a bit of a crap night whilst I thought far too much about it. Wrote her a nice email today and although she complained email too long lol she is going to meet with the planners and look into it. At least I know she is ok - i think she must have been having bad day too. Also heard last night one of our other sort of bosses was bad mouthing our department to some of the senior management which got me down a bit. Its a case of she speaks before she thinks and no-one really pays her much attention but it still got me down.
ANYWAY....- checked my credit union account and was surprised to see it had £500 in it. Thought it was only £300. Going to keep it growing for as long as I can - its my only buffer and I am desperate to take my beautiful dd on a holiday this year.
- checked banking - as expected
- checked cc - got given £25 cashback?? not sure what thats all about but hey ho
- credited phone so not to lose out on my payg package (dolphin)
- Not a NDS today so tried to shop cleverly and get all that I need before the weekend so I can have another couple of NSD's this week
- NOT going to update foodfocus today cause its too depressing
- brought packed lunch and my tea with me today as going out straight after work and wanted to avoid temptation (like that worked out) Also means I use their electricity to heat up my chilli and rice
- rescued some of my tubs and tuperware boxes from the bin after leaving them in kitchen for ages
- charged mobile via usb whilst working away on computer
- free excersise in form of walk at lunch time and walk a couple of miles on the way home (depending on weather)
Determinedms - dont know if you saw post from yesterday but if you want to read room when I am done, PM me your addy. Only request is you forward it on for free to someone else once you are doneDFW 228 LONG H 68

Hello everyone, missed you the last couple of days but have been absolutely manic! (was going to say manicly busy but think that's another made up word).
Pixie - How do I change my username?
Been trying to do this the last couple of weeks because..... a) discovered my dad uses MSE (good on him but don't really want him to know about the size of my OD) and b) use this username on another forum and bit worried someone at work who knows it (and also uses MSE) will figure out it's me!
Anyway, today....
Took flask of coffee & lunch to work
Had NSD!!!
Paid cc in full (finally got rid of the one with the outstanding balance on & determind to pay this one in full each month)!
Very, very windy here. Stupid cat howling at door to get out but the dog could hardly cope with it so there's no way he's getting out! Other sensible cat curled up in bed!
Will catch up on everything shortly - DM came to visit yesterday and left me a lovely steak for my tea tonight! yum:DGrocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

Pixie - How do I change my username?
They say they'll only change if your username is your email address or real name...but I emailed and said that it was a username that many people I know use (inc ex hub) and I want to remain anonymous so would they change it to *insert new username*... I keep wanting to recommend the boards to people/family but dont want to be spotted. not that anything I say is of much interest, I just prefer to be unknown;)
PS... I'm sure manically is a word:)I really need to sort out a new signature!0 -

arrrrgh, thanks I really have spent hours searching the site to do this:rotfl:will drop them an email.
Still in 2 minds as I use this on a couple of other forums (and therefore easy to remember) and if it wasn't for DF/colleague then it wouldn't reallybe an issue (alternative I guess would be to remove the info from my sig - but it's a good incentive to actually do something and pay the beeping stuff off)!Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
