Been a very good ostrich today. My auntie popped round earlier with a tenner she owed me for some bits I'd bought for her last week. I could have left it in my purse and frittered it away on coffees and crap from the shop, but NO. I potted it. :jLong haul supporter #290POAYDBX2014 #043LBM Dec 2011 Debt £51K Debt Nov 2014 £42K0

Evening all
I haven't posted in a little while and the potting has been slow. Managed to stay within my weekly budget by a whisker after food shopping yesterday - providing I don't spend anything else before Friday. I have a grand total of 23p to last until Friday so I may as well pot it now!
Getting pretty nervous now about my op on Monday, I keep thinking 'Maybe I will get better if I wait a bit longer...'! I keep being told not to worry and I wish I could stop myself being scared but don't know how"It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true.

Thank you everyone for your well wishes for DS, not sure whats going on with him as he was a lovely normal rosey cheeked boy this evening :eek: he was complaining about pain in the back of his legs so im wondering if hes inherited my muscle cramps
I used to get them all the time when I was a kid and they were blinking painful but that still doesnt explain the complete lack of colour in his face :huh:
