Helen, you have had this diary since 08-08-2011 and out of the 61 pages 45 of them are from this year and 19 just from this month alone.

You are no longer hiding away making excuses. Your diary is getting more posts and that shows you are on every day, working every day, keeping everything in the open and accepting advice.

It really shows just how far you have come. (either that or all the people that now follow your thread don't know how to shut up )

LoL I love that you all don't shut up ... LoL...but in reality you are all Supporting me and I feel so priveleged for that....So Thank You....

I feel like my Life has really turned around....I feel happier because I'm being honest with myself and I no longer have to lie to people about why I can't pay them....because I CAN pay them now!! And that feels wonderful.....

Nearly up to £178 now...I'll hopefully do the £180 before 5pm...

DreamerHelen

Right....I finally made it to £180 for the Week so far thanks to a Regular that normally stays for about 20 minutes or so...sometimes slightly less....

I AM going to get some fresh air but not sure about going to feed the Ducks, it's awfully warm...but we'll see....I'm going to wait for my Call from my Manager to set up the Text Chat...then go grab a Shower....then go out and get my little picnic....and then see about feeding the Ducks....

I'll speak to you all later, between 10pm and 11pm tonight....xXx

Just to let you know I am still stalking you

Saw this thread earlier when I was on the OS board and thought it might be useful to you.
It was started in 2005 so obviously some of the info is out of date but there is still some very useful stuff on it.

Helen, where are you? :wave::wave::wave:

Hope tonight is a busy one for you

Evening, no sign of you, hope the ducks didnt get you ! Off to bed now, not looking forwards to tomorrow, and friday even less.

Talk to orrow sometime , nite nite x

DreamerHelen

Evening All....Slightly later than planned but I overslept!! Not quite sure how though...but I turned off my Alarm...still, at least I didn't sleep for the whole night though!!

I didn't go and feed the ducks in the end as it was too darn hot....So what I did was take a good book and go and sit in the Garden for a little while....got some Sun, some fresh air and got out of my Stuffy Flat for a while....

Then I Cooked some Pasta with Cheese....I felt really proud of myself because I only had £7.90 in my Account until tomorrow and I could have borrowed some money and got Takeout but I thought to myself - I don't need to borrow any money, I don't need to go out and buy Food AND I have things that I can cook at home which are just as nice and more filling!! So feeling proud of that....and that means that I can have a little treat after Placement tomorrow because I didn't spend it today...Not a big treat...but a little one....

So, starting Work at Midnight....

Thanks for that Link Shovel Lad....I'll have a look during my Night Shift....

Am Working from Midnight until 8am....We'll see if it's busier tonight...Certainly hope so!!

I changed my Picture back on the Website AND set up Text Chat...so we've just got to see what the Text Chat is like and whether any actually Texts me or not....

Speak to you all in the morning but I'll post Updates throughout the Night....

DreamerHelen

Well I just had my First ever Text!!! YAY!!! That's not bad cause I've heard of people having to wait an awful long time...So I've now sent 3 Messages...okay, that's not going to add much to my Wages but hopefully it will become more and more....We only get paid the Text Chat on a Monthly Basis so it should add up across the Month....As I said before, even an extra £10-£20 will still be helpful....

Well this last 2 hours has simply FLOWN by....I can't believe it's nearly 2am already....

Done okay so far....It's definitely busier than it was last night...Which is GREAT....and I've had a few people stay on for longer than 10 minutes which is always good....

Still feeling VERY positive....

I would really like to get to £55 tonight...but we'll see if I can get there....See if the gods are smiling on me tonight....

DreamerHelen

Hey Everyone....Still here

Well I'm up to £27 and some change so far for the Evening....not bad since Midnight and MUCH MUCH MUCH better than last night!! I had a Regular on for nearly 2 hours...which is great...so I can't complain....It's gone a bit quiet now...but hopefully will pick up once the Business-Men wake up in the morning...should start to pick up around 6am....

So...still here....still plugging away...

DreamerHelen

Well it WAS busy but now has gone really really really quiet....I'm wondering if I might be better to get some sleep and then wake up and do the morning Shift before my Placement in the Afternoon....that way it should be busier in the morning even if I DO get paid a little less....

I think I'll give it until 5am....but so far in the last half an hour I've had ONE two minute Phone Call....which is not good....

So yes, give it until 5am and see if it picks up....otherwise I'm going to go to bed for a few hours and then log on around 8.30am until 11am....then I have to go to my Placement....

I'll Report back at 5am....
