    Morning all,

    It's Friday tomorrow! Very exciting as the day after that my best friend is getting married! :j

    Pixie - I am so glad the crohns isn't back, you must be so relieved! Hope the tablets make you feel a bit better.
    Stitchy - Congrats on your first sale! May there be many more to come :T
    Ceejaydee23 - I was going to write a fairly long message about how not to give up, we all have tough months where it really gets to us & things seem to just sort themselves out afterwards but I think DNMS said it perfectly, & she's right to speak for the rest of us, chin up you'll get through this :)
    DNMS - Good choice on the cooker! It amazes me how they decide to charge so much more just for a different colour sometimes, & you're right it does exactly the same job!
    Josie - How on earth does that one work? You can not be there, yet still earn sales...I'm in the wrong job clearly!

    Today I have/will:-

    • [STRIKE]Food from stores [/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Make use of free coffee/water at work [/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Heating off during working day [/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Charge phone at work[/STRIKE]
    • Update ebay challenge
    • Catch up on other threads
    • [STRIKE]Log calories on free app[/STRIKE]
    • Log any expenditure on free app
    • [STRIKE]Check for surveys[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Enter comps[/STRIKE]
    • Put some washing away
    • Check online banking
    • Research wedding photographers more - visiting another one this evening
    • [STRIKE]Check with the hotel my friends are staying at that it's ok to leave their wedding gift in their room - can't seem to get hold of the place![/STRIKE] - Finally got through! Not a problem :)
    • Dig out suitable handbag for Saturday so I don't have to buy a new one
    • Dig out suitable coat/jacket as well
    • Hopefully have time to make use of free yoga videos, will ban OH from the room hehe!
    Have a great, moneysaving day everyone x

    Morning all

    checked online banking.. its amazing how crapwest can show such variations with nothing really moving on account between 50-100 quid one day from the next... hmmmm dont trust it at all !

    i had random monies go in mine in december... very weird... not noticed them going out again though :-) was 3 payments of about 20 quid....

    got a bad headache today - think from physion on my neck yesterday.. feel bit sicky with it.

    some of us seem to be struggling at the moment with life in general.. big hugs to all of you x
