surely the adult response is I can't "make" anyone feel anything, those are your issues. My issues are about being judged . Tomorrow I will get up at 6 and post with pride! :rotfl:

Hi everyone
Just stopping by quickly, trying to talk myself into a quick bike ride but it's raining...
Today I've:
Checked banks
About to check CCs
Checked TCB - nada
Checked Ebay - woop, lots of nice little watchers and up to £9.50 on one of my items (an unwanted xmas pressie, trying really hard not to feel guilty!)
Printed off info for training course tomorrow
Food from stores
Updated calorie tracker
NSD I think apart from below which doesn't count
Bought something for work on CC - will get clubcard points in return and will claim petty cash when it comes
Car shared to work
Think that's it! Will get postcode etc sorted for tomorrow's training course in a mo, empty out car of various bits (have to take a colleague!) and sort out notebook, then early night ready for my 5am wake up call!
Have a great evening all!

Day off today.
Got up at 7 to wake teenage daughter up to go to college so thought I'd make an early start on the surveys and competitions.
Went to visit my caravan to make sure there was no winter damage - there wasn't.
Visited a discount shop on the way home but didn't see anything I wanted or needed.
Did rest of surveys and comps.
Value sausages for tea - yuk, they were horrible.
Had heating on low.0
