Morning sweetie

Thanks for thinking of me but please don't worry, you need to focus on you right now I must have missed something as I don't think it's January yet!!! I will assume it's good news as you sounds so happy and I am delighted for you both.

Hope you are feeling a bit better - eating/drinking more? xx

Well I know that you know about DH by now he was really nervous this morning though!!!!!!!!!!!! Am drinking loads-has to be warm or room temp though. As for food well...... Wheetabix(yum) is playing a BIG part in my life, had some mashed potatoes last night and they were FANTASTIC. Today is the first time in ages that I have felt hungry(the quavers that OP spoke about sounded SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD-haven't had quavers in years) but today am going to (try to ) EAT FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!YUM! Have a good day swetie. A X

No bothering about sigs then

Well done on starting a spending diary. Please do - it is my absolute lifesaver! Apart from this forum of course

PS I love your signature, so true!

Today will be a NSD my 3rd this week however still way over my challenge figure for the week though:o

I'm feeling really crappy at the moment, just can't spend any money because I refuse to spend what I don't have at the moment. However I am so used to flashing the cc's at christmas time I am finding it really, really difficult to ignore the spender in me.

However on a good note I recieved my magnum of champagne that I won from a competition and that has been put away to open on our DF date, it's massive and too big and heavy for the fridge!

Hello themaccas

There are two things that I wanted to say, having read your post.

Firstly, I know how you feel about the spending this time of year and feeling low. It can be so hard for us reformed spendaholics to not get the thrill of going out there and come back with lots of bags of shopping, nice things to wrap and lots of new outfits perhaps. I suppose all we can say/think is that in years to come, when we are debt free, we won't be in this scrimp and save situation and shopping will be a joy again. Just hang in there and allow yourself to feel down but not for long! We have many things to be thankful for :grouphug:

Secondly, we really must co-ordinate efforts as a magnum of champagne will taste so much better shared! Happy to help you out on that one!!!

Chin up

Glad things are better although it still doesn't sound perfect if you are spending most of your time in your room

Take care and don't let them upset you xx
