    I would love that psycho :) can you pm me the details. Not entirely sure whether I like Piers Morgan, but an evening out is better than staying in on my own :D

    Feeling a bit better now, my housemates fiance was playing his decks and I asked him to turn it down and he apologised & turned it down straight away. I think it just echos from my last house where I had to ask my old housemate to turn the music down all the time. I've offered to look after the dogs for my housemate tomorrow whilst she goes to her parents before visiting some caves that she wants to get married in.

    Ooh and really happy that I managed my second NSD this month :D

    Currently watching my tv on the wall :D it's amazing how much better it looks on the wall instead of on the desk.

    Morning guys.

    Getting up today completely felt like Monday, it's cold and my head feels like its filled with half my dreams that I haven't quite finished dreaming yet.

    Two weeks till payday, but there's a few more DDs to go out yet that'll bring me down (in a good way!).

    Hope Tuesday treats you right, Monday seems pretty grim.

    Really happy I got my 2nd NSD tomorrow so going to try for another one today. Plus I'm down at the pallet manufacturing place every Tuesday so only good thing about it is that they finish at 4.30pm so I'm going get straight to the reservoir and hopefully get two circuits in before the sun sets. It's such a lovely day again today that it should be illegal to have to go to work...

    I have to agree with you Kerri that I'm surprising myself with how organised and different I am now. I'm now tidier (WHAT?!) and am keeping myself busy rather than just vegging out in front of the tv every evening. Glad you sound as though he listened when you told him to turn it down and I think you'll have a fab night out with Psycho xxx

    Solicitors day! Excited. Although its going to be expensive it'll be worth it. £2.80 return fees for the Tyne tunnel then however much in deposite we need to pay whether that be 10% or our full 25% we're paying.

    Mam and I are going to the metrocentre after to get me a good pan with a lid. Everything else I can use my wok/slow cooker/oven dishes for but I like my rice and pasta done right. Promised I'd get her mothers day present then too. Big day.

    Jakes-mum sorry to hear about DH. If he can do all sorts of bits and pieces, is it worth him trying to build a business outside of his next job? A sort of hire-a-hubby type thing.

    :rotfl::rotfl: What a great name for a business :rotfl::rotfl: I wonder if people would get the wrong idea and ring asking to hire my DH for dates to re-unions and stuff :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi all,

    Another little payment made today so my new total is

    # 306 £2261.33/16779.81

    Hugs to Jakes Mum - hope something turns up for your husband soon.

    I'm off to SW tonight after a 2 week "holiday" I haven't actually been anywhere but I got fed up with paying the £5 each week. My mission was to get back to within my target zone so that I can go for free each week. My Wii fit says I am there, but that was early this morning & I seem to weigh heavier at night. ;) Must not eat cake today!

    Ruth
