    Feisty.. look at what you DO have.. That OH of yours, your free time back and released from that huge weight around your neck dragging you down. You can relax and enjoy Christmas knowing your life is so much richer in many ways for the experience and the release from it. I hope next year brings much more good fortune your way and you see lots of happiness.. enjoy what you do have rather than be sad about what you don't... and hopefully the karma bus will catch up with that rip off merchant soon xxxx

    Morning. I'm off to get my hair done today then attempt the food shop. If it's too busy, I will about turn and go very early tomorrow. Our new Tesco is not the busiest as everyone is going to the bigger Asda or Tesco in the next town, that way they can get everything. So I'm hoping I will be able to move. I was in Asda on Friday and it was if the world was ending with the amount of food people had in their trollies lol.
