    *dusts off broomstick again*

    Awww you guys - thanks for the lovely thoughts & well wishes :T- you do know how to make me tear up :o (although I have been known to cry at nearly anything atm ..... soaps, adverts:o and even the news the other day!) so .....

    Also, a big welcome to chevalier:) lovely to see another new face on my journey .... hope you survived the read OK :eek: it's turned into a bit of a medical diary atm rather than a money one but hope to be back on track soon!

    So .... I've had a really busy day - on the positive side, finally managed to get my eyes tested and needed 2 pairs of new glasses (sunglasses for the car and reactor lens ones for the rest of the time)

    She said I will need probably also need reading ones at next check but they're OK just now! (phew!)

    Feeling a bit poorer tonight :eek: and keeping my fingers crossed they don't hit until next month's c/card statement date (unfortunately unlikely as most stuff on the 16th does tend to hit and it's only the odd time it doesn't!).

    Worse still .... this is in the fledgling "others" budget :eek: so not a lot in the kitty as yet - might need to do a bit of juggling again!


    On the negative side ... (sorry!) - popped into new hairdressers on way to optician to see if she could recommend anything for my hair (which is still coming out at a fair rate BUT what's left is awful & brittle & dry:() - anyway, she recommended something to try (lots of crossed fingers please:)) BUT said she could really see the difference & that I'd lost loads more since I had my hair cut ... which was only around a month ago:eek:

    Positive again ... (do like to finish on one of them!) - had a lovely (and huge!) lunch at DM&DFs - only had a snack for dinner as still full:T.

    Have slept since I got home :o and about to head off to bed shortly and planning on a very lazy day tomorrow :D (need to update spreadsheets, take Maisie to the beach - fingers crossed it's nice - and a bit of ironing to do!):)

    Hope all are well - I'm afraid I haven't managed to catch up on anyone's diaries as yet :o
