savingwannabe

Oh sweetie, I feel so bad for you. When you came on the other day i was pestering my friend GeorgeUk as he is not well and i wanted to check up on him. Enjoy yourself with Puddings and the lovely Dragon. Hooray we do have some fab people on here!

I am not going to be on tomorrow. (harhar does anyone actually believe that???? ) as i have squillions of assignments to mark. I am going to set the alarm for 6am and mark 4 every hour. Fingers crossed it should be complete by 6pm unless there are distractions which will take longer but i aim to finish tomorrow.

Off to see Midsomer Murders in bed. Goodnight all. Bless you and sleep well.

Puds dont make her laugh she is in pain. Hugs both of you.

Eek i forgot to say Steve and Andy rang from the beach they send their love to you all and goodnight Susan too.

3Dogs

Night night Kit - enjoy Midsomer Murders and have a good nights sleep - and good luck with the marking tomorrow petal

Urm SW somehow I doubt you will stay off here! and Vix as one who has suffered with ankle operations I empathise and sympathise!

Dragon - Pudds Everest challenge was to climb stairs the right number of times equal to the height of Everest - taking the average height of on step up, against the recorded height of Everest - a bold challenge but I guess, with determination, it can be done

We had to move to a bungalow as I couldn't manage the stairs any longer though I have to admit that I have improved a bit since, which is due to a) not having to use stairs anymore and b) losing over 4 stone in weight still a lot more to go, but getting there

I have had arthritis in varying degrees since about 1987/88 when I was 35 but it must be awful for you Dragon, with what you have - how long have you been like this?

It's gonna be no more high heels for you for a long time Vix :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

vixarooni

I never wear heels anyway as I can't bend that foot alot. I don't think i ever will be able to because he said he couldn't fix the tendons or something when he was in there. Poo!

When i was in hospital this lady was in having an infusion for her arthritus. She was lovely, she got me my breakfast Have you had anything like that?

Great challenges everybody, especially 3Dogs and Mr 3Dogs.

My list is probably going to be VERY long. I have a lot to achieve in 2011.

1. Lose weight, I would like to lost at least 2 stone, but preferably 4 stone, but will see how I go.
put on weight! Well done Aesop!


2. To start taking iron tablets every day, so my hair stops falling out.
yeh right Aesop!

3. To eat much more healthy, no more junk food, more fruit and veg, that will help with weight loss.
yeh right Aesop

4. Try to use Wii Fit at least 3 times a week, if not more, that will help with weight loss, and will not make it another expensive present wasted.
yeh right Aesop

5. Try and do surveys every day, potentially there is a lot of money to be made, vouchers or cash, and these can all be used towards Grocery bills/household bills or even go towards Christmas presents/savings, etc.
hmmm 1000 emails later... the only good thing I have done is signed upto shop and scan and am very good at scanning all shopping everyday! as for surveys...1000 emails to be deleted!


6. Try to save £2 a week on Sainsbury's Savings Card, Iceland Savings card. I would like at a minimum to have £52 saved on each at the end of the year, more would be fab , this could then be used for Christmas food, or if we are not here, ie up north with family, used for after Christmas
not doing as well, but have started saving. see Sig.


7. Sell anything I no longer have a use for, ie old clothes, shoes, handbags, etc. unless it is stuff I have got through glitches that can be used for Xmas/Birthday pressies, etc.
ok, slowly doing this, have sold a bit of stuff.

8. Enter more competitions and win so that I don't have to buy Xmas/Birthday pressies.
have won something! waiting to see what it is.

9. Check grabbit and freebies site a bit more often than once in a blue moon, ie daily/weekly so can take advantage of glitches to save on food bills/clothing, pressies, etc.

hmm lot of blue moons out there.

10. To see more of my friends and my DS to see his friends. They have been a bit neglected this past year.
yay, being seeing some of my friends at least 1 a week. Getting there.

11. To try and read a bit more, at least 1 book a month.
Have managed to read 1 book, have 3 on the go at the mo. Need a kindle.

12. To listen to more music and watch TV less.

13. To be more organised with my finances, keep a beady eye on my accounts and be accountable for every penny.
