DreamerHelen's New Diary - "Ad Astra per Aspera"

DreamerHelen

Morning Everyone....

Well I think I've well and truly slept it off....I'm feeling MUCH MUCH better this morning....

I tried to Wake up at 2am but still felt awfully sick and dizzy...so went back to sleep....and woke up about half an hour ago and feel MUCH better....

So I'm logging on at 6am until 11am....and then taking a couple of hours off to grab a shower, do some Shopping and Banking things....and then logging back in for the Afternoon....then taking an hour's break and logging back in for the Night Shift tonight....I figure I've had enough sleep in the last 24 hours to be able to do that!!

Feeling a bit more positive now....Just hope I can still make a decent amount in order to pay what needs paying this Week...

Hi Helen

Glad that you are feeling much better. Like others say, it would probably be a good idea to keep a food diary, so you could try and pinpoint which foods are causing you problems. Nothing worse than feeling sick and dizzy, so I can imagine you wouldn't want to work (and definitely not in your job ).

Glad that you are back on the phone though now that you are better. Stay with it Helen. I am sure that you can still make enough to pay what you need to pay as you still have three days of the week to go.

How much are you up to now - have lost track a bit...

Take care.

DreamerHelen

Morning Pesto hun.....Thank You for your Message.....And for being encouraging....I know this Week has NOT been perfect for me....but I think I'm back on track....and I AM going to pay off that blasted Peachy PayDay Loan if it's the last thing I do!!

I'm currently nearly up to £190....Hoping to be up to £200 by the time I have a break at 11am....

I'm still here....still plugging away....

PestoPasta

Hi Helen, you are doing well. So you are still on-track to pay everything which is great.

At least the 'mini' kick up the bum earlier in the week meant that you had made a decent amount by mid-week.

Glad that you are feeling better. You have had plenty of sleep this week, so hopefully this weekend you can really go for it and make those pennies.

On another note, how about re-thinking your work pattern. I know that this will all change when you are back at college in October, but how about structuring things so that you have a full 24 hours off each week. At the moment you are grabbing this time and feeling guilty for taking it (and so not fully enjoying it!!!). I think you would be better to work a big day Mon/Tue to get your money up, perhaps take off the day when you have your placement fully (for 24 hours) and then continue on.

Just a thought. I know that if it was me, I would want to do that, as to be on the phone every day for seven days would probably drive me insane!:eek:

DreamerHelen

Hey Pesto....That's not a bad idea actually....I used to take Sundays off (after 8am when the money went back down)...but haven't been doing that for a while....not consistently....I might try and see if I can do that....would be nice....

It's gone a little quiet here....but hopefully will pick up....I'll be on the Lines until 11am....then all afternoon....then all night....so I'm hoping for a good stretch of Calls....

I've lost track of what you owe, but if all your payday loans are finished this week, does the amount you need to earn each week drop or are there lots more to pay ?

Glad you feeling better x

I've got the Peachy Loan which WILL be paid next Week and then one more PayDay Loan which will be paid the Week after...and THAT'S IT for PayDay Loans which means less for me to Pay!! Also....In case you didn't know - WONGA IS GONE GONE GONE!!!!

So that will help....Not having those awful silly PayDay Loans around....

And thanks - I'm glad I'm feeling better too.....That means I can Work lots and lots this Weekend!!

Eeek ... almost £200 !! There is still a chance you will make "reward" !! Since I will be away for a week next week, I wont be able to nag you the same ! lol Are you pleased ?
I am however taking my I-pad away, so who knows .... if there is wi-fi at the apartment, Ill be checking up ! lol
Just setting up today for tomorrows big County Show, busy busy day again, Good job I thrive on adrenaline!

DreamerHelen

Sorry Mara hun, I logged off at 11am and didn't check the Forums before I went off to do a little bit of Shopping and Banking stuff....

Of course I will miss you hun!! You are probably my biggest Supporter on here (no disrespect to anyone else!!) and you ALWAYS want the best for me and never shout at me and always try to get me going....So in case I don't say it enough - Thank You!!

But I hope you have a WONDERFUL time....Don't do too many Tequila Shots off naked barmen though okay?

I'm just having Lunch and logging back in at 1pm until 7pm...And then 8pm until 9am tomorrow morning....And then sleepy time again...

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we didn't have to Sleep? If we could just keep on going on and on and on? I must admit I DO like sleeping every now again but most of the time it just feels annoying....

Ah well....

Soooo....I'm going to enjoy my little break....and then logging back at 1pm for the Afternoon Shift....hopefully it will be busier than this morning!!

<<perk >> Tequila ? Naked Barmen ? Hold me back !!!

You can only do your best Helen, If you put in the hours and the callers arent there, its not your fault, but If youre online you will get a few ... even if its a 15 minuter ! Kinda premature hanging up thing ........ lol

Now, a small challenge for your shopping , Im concerned that you arent eating properly ! So for next week, order some fresh veg, carrots, onions and potatos, and some fresh fruit, bananas, grapes ...Oh and some chicken or fish !! Make time to cook & eat properly, might help with the sickness & migraines.. .. Am gonna be smug here, have managed to lose 10lb since the end of June, so theres one less bulge in my swimsuit ! lol

Im one of those people who always lose weight on holiday, combination of lots of swimming and eating less cos its hot, So who knows, might hit the magic stone before I come home. Hows that for tempting fate ! lol

BBL ... work calls !
