I think it's particularly tough this time because we've just had 2 weeks together... No firm travel plans for the rest of the month yet but it looks like I'm away for a couple of days in the third week and we're both away in the last week :eek:You don't think they're..............
No, don't be silly.

Update on my grocery challenge: I've spent £15 of nectar points and 63p cash (including £4.75 on body lotion for Mr MWC and £1.10 on lettuce for The Girls). Next spend will probably be Mr T CC vouchers on my way home from work on Friday (spinach for The Girls, fruit for me)

My year plan also includes walking and drinking water...... But so far I haven't been out for a single walk, and I haven't been drinking enough water either.
I had two Belgian chocolates today - double what I planned to have, but it was so yummy I couldn't stop at one!
Ah well, we can start again tomorrow!Early retired - 18th December 2014
If your dreams don't scare you, they're not big enough0 -
If only I'd stopped at 2 chocolates...!
You're right, tomorrow's another day :T

Hi MWC and Happy New Year!
I am sorry that you are missing your DH - my DH doesn't go away very often, but I miss him loads - even if it's just for one night.
Walking and water are two of my things too. However, I think it pointless to try and be good food-wise until all the goodies are gone - therefore I am not worrying about that until temptation has been eaten!
All the best for 2015 - your mortgage busting 2014 was fabulous!

Aw MWC, sorry you're missing Mr MWC. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0
