All good I hope?
about to start a glass of wine..what does that say about me? :rotfl:
Sorry my dear, been feeling pretty fed up with all the debt stuff and general life cr^p lately tbh and felt like haven't really had much to say.
I could do with that glass of wine too tonight but think I'm going to go for a late bath instead. I've been pretty good food wise lately but tonight instead of my healthy salad, cooked potatoes and carrots to go with my boiled bacon, added butter to the potatoes, munched a crunchie bar and 2 biscuits and could still k!ll for something else sweet. I did add spinach and lettuce leaves to my plate and they covered more of the plate than the rest but still. Oh, also just remembered ate 4 jammie dodgers and a bag of crisps at work too. OOPS
I considered the BS bundle too but decided against but if you look at my diary have had a bit of a splurge on some of the offers on this week.
