Thanks lula, i did. Just trying to get all those niggly jobs done before going bcak to the work - oh n factor in gym time.....

been a good girl and done 1 1/2 hrs at gym today , plus some extra sit ups when got home. just finished putting some 99p starters on flebay - all in the op pot.
spent quite a lot yesterday,
got :-
oh's parents presents
my sisters present,
oh's grandparents presents

and.......... some no 7 bronzer , and st torpoez for me - really naughty i know - but the cheap stuffs rubbish - and thought i might as well get the set it was cheaper than buying the bottles = plus got points!!!

off to clean the oven soon , and muck out the wardrobes - in search of anything that can get shoved on flebay!!!!

went to the other job today and came away £25 lighter due to buying extra bits for NYE..... just cleaned my oven on fear and embarrsement, washed the patio window, and dusted all round - dont see the point in hoovering when i know for a fact that on NYE i will wizz round with both again.
Going to do a Natty and try and make £5 my weekly spend on fruit , bread and milk. the way my cupboards are stacked i think that this is wholey achivable.
was going to go to the gym but feeling abit lazy so havent been. going to go and sew condoms and l plates on an flebay veil now ready for the hen do in january - what a glamerous life i lead!!! xx

well veil is looking cracking - if i do say so my self!!!

started with the nye buffett, got the stuff on the table ( Plates, pakets of crisps etc) and stuff de thawing on the sink.
Tea = Reduced prawns, and noodles - not my cup of tea but hey ho, washing it down with a white wine and soda!!
Slapped on the fake tan , and just chilling tonight, OH has gone back to work so some proper me time, seeing as tomorrow i have got to :-

change the spare bed,
hoover and dust ( AGAIN!)
gym spinning and V core what ever that is!!!
mop the utility room and get the glasses out
post back stuff back that bought on line
put woodburner in
ironing

cant belive where the holidays have gone, got some more days off to come but doubt that i will end up using them so going to be cheeky and ask hr if i can be paid for the time off instead ( Massive OP!! fingers crossed!!)

read the diarys before, and ones got right on my wick , trying to make out that we are all sad for wanting to get shut of our chain around our necks. i am astounded how people can see it as being negative, i kno for a fact that i am not doing myself out of anything , but spending was becoming silly, and reality needs to kick in . we spend within our means and just because the society of today want everything for nothing , they seek for the disposable income and never make do and mend.
BUT NOT EVERYONE IS LIKE THAT ...... and in the years to come who will be better off??

Don't suppose it was the one where I tried to have a reasoned debate, but the chap was just trolling? :rotfl:

Yeah I saw that........ I think some people just look to stir things up -thing is, looked like he had been a member for a while and had made a fair few posts, so was a little bit confused about his intentions.

Spending money doesn't make you happy - it might give you a legal high for 5 minutes, but that's about it - let's face it, I should know, lol.

Yep, I started to read that thread as well before coming away from it. The thing I love about MFW is that everyone is so nice and helpful AND non-critical, so it was a real shame to have someone questioning our motives, and stirring things up.

Dinnae mess with MFW:D

Ed - the very same - i thought you did it with tact and diplomacy - i was scathing so no comment - least said the better......

Lula - yep 5 minute high, 5 days of guilt till it arrives, then 5 minutes of high when you open it, then 5 days of sulking as you pick faults in yourself for either :-
a) thinking it makes you look fat
b) thinking a op could be made
c) realising that sometimes the old faithfuls are great!

I am going through the fat stage even with eth exercise - i seem to be toning , but no muscle defonition as yet , and belly fat not seeming to shift..................
I have 19 days to look HOT for the hen do, and 6 Weeks to have perfect armsfor the bmaid dress.....

hate hating myself sometimes but i strive to make a silk purse out of a sows ear!
