    Hi :D


    Lean times in the Dollydog household this month, Mr Dolly will be out of work in 3 weeks :( so only shrapnel going into my pot for the forseeable future :(

    Shrapnel is better than nothing dollydog - maybe Mr D will find something that starts in 3 weeks time. Fingers crossed.

    I've been really watching what I'm spending just now and trying to avoid using cash. If I spend it's pretty much on a cashback CC - which means limited potting.

    Roadkill (well, A*da kill ;)) of 50p potted tonight. And cash withdrawn today for my big night out at the weekend so may be some cash to pot on Sunday :)

    Aww sorry about Mr Dollys job :(

    11p in roadkill from the £ shop floor, the 2 young girls having a chat must have thought I was mighty strange swooping down on it, but i'l be the one laughing come opening day :D

    also 2 x £2 coins care of the PO (plus an extra one sat in my purse ready for the tooth fairy ;)) and 22p off DD to pay back for her 45p of sweets . . think I was diddled there :think:

    Dollydog, I hope he finds something soon *sending hugs your way*

    As for me, it was another NSD which is bittersweet 'cos it's good :D But it means I don't get the satisfaction of putting anything in the pot :(

    Well things this Week have been VERY VERY rough...Have been in Court Monday and Tuesday for something that happened to me 6 months ago....and that was incredibly stressful...

    And now I think I've got a Cold and it's going to be very difficult to Chat on the Phone for Work without sneezing...so I'm going to see how I get on with that....

    Also....I had to spend my Pot again....had no choice...I had absolutely no Food and just had to....but at least I had it there...

    Still, am DETERMINED that I WILL get there and WILL save up for Christmas....Just need things to get a bit better first....

    *Hugs* to those that need them...and would love a hug or two back please....if that's not too needy!! LoL
  • DreamerHelen, have a BIG hug on me; sounds like you are in sore need of it. I know bad things are bleak at the time, but all does come right in time. Keep your head up, and stay positive xx

    Dollydog, hope Mr Dolly finds a new job soon.

    Just 40p in the pot today, but it all helps towards that magical day in November!!

    Night everyone :)

    Hi DreamerHelen

    You need Hugs You got them ((( HUGs))) and a few :lovethougas well
    We are all here for you. We all have bad days so don't let it get you down do what I do concentrate on something really nice someone has done for you and then you know life isn't so bad.

    Colds seem to be doing the round at the moment see if you can get out for a short walk it will make you feel better and who knows you might find some road kill :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope you soon feel better

    Thank You so much luckycharlie hun....I know it will be okay....and I know I'll get there....Just have to get there...if that makes sense.... :D

    I'm going out in a little while to get more Flu/Cold Capsules as I am taking them every 4 hours...and they DO help me....so it will be good to have a short Walk to the Chemist....

    And yes...if I find any Roadkill then that will just be a bonus!! :D :money: :D
