    Today I had brought my own lunch and resisted the temptation of the chip shop!

    Read a book in my lunch break rather than buy a magazine,

    Sent off letter to my solicitors regarding a compensation claim that has dragged on since Janury 2006,

    Visited the library rather than the shops.

    Evening all.

    I have today;

    * Dutifully carried out my C & S online

    * Taken in a HM lunch

    * Listed a fabby book on Amazon which I really hope sells soon!

    * Posted an EBAY parcel and my kind BF paid for the p&p too as I'm skint (hey so what's new!)

    * Got a lift home from work....OK I pretty much begged for the lift as I did not want to stand about in the bitterly cold, wintry showers! ;)

    * Booked day off Friday so I can work a bit more on finance stuff/try & think of ways to raise extra cash at the moment as overdraft is whizzing back up again. (Why does everything always seem to need paying for at the same time??)
