Time to be completely honest

HI Sea, It sounds as if you're going through a heavy time. If it helps to talk about it here, do that and don't feel any need to apologise. Or if you want to take time out from MSE, that's fine as well. You know that we're all thinking of you and wishing the very best for you and the children.

Hi Sea, xxxxxx, I think we all arrive at crossroads at some point and in actual fact we all have the same doubts and questions to pose some more than others. One thing is for sure we will probably cross paths at some point. I hope you can choose the right way. You're doing great my love Lenny

awww...thanks for the support guys - wish I'd come on sooner!!

Right...MSE wise...managed to spend fortune in tesco (£86) but got enough for 2 weeks and got over 1100 clubcard points as well Also used about £10 money off coupons too. So all good really. Been cooking better meals too.

The children are well - yippee!!! William is going through the terrible twos and having a rough time of it - as is his sister as a result! He's just so strong and doesn't realise it really...still in our bed too to go to sleep but is sometimes then transferring to his own bed...yawn!

Might do some scrapping tonight to relax, but also need to get cracking witht he marking and the reports...actually will need to start that soon as it's going to take a while!!

Debts are slowly going down - the figures are all over the place, so will combine them all at the end of the month and get an accurate figure now. But it's all good as reducing!! OH's CC is not but I refuse to take responsibility for that. His decision. His mess.

All my clothes seem to be giving up - so I'll have to reluctantly go shopping - had to go get bras the other day as realised the strange misshapen things I had could no longer be called bras lol!! Still, managed to get bargains and that - which always makes the spending better.

oooh nearly forgot...

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY ALL!!

Keep the torch alight, and pass it on!

Taxi - I got loads through for baby stuff, like 500 points if spend over £20 on baby items, and 150 points if buy 2 johnsons products etc. So I substituted getting body lotion for baby oil instead etc. I've joined all the tesco clubs I can. Might be worth you doing it, especially if you need baby items at your house and buy them anyway.

Got an email from my mum this morning about a new women's centre in London - on offer this week were welding, yoga, discussion groups etc. Takes me back to many a happy day as a child at the women's centre in Leeds

This is the year I'm going to reclaim myself and my politics and DO SOMETHING.

Go for it mrs! Happy womens day to you too! Who'd be a man eh!! Great that you are feeling chirpier. Hows the no alch & fags going? I'm having "mixed" results but also not being too hard on myself - rome wasnt built in a day & lets face it if we conquered all of our "stuff" then what would be have to stress about eh!

Have you got lozanges or simular? They really help with teh going up the wall cravings!! YO get get them on pescription but TBH with paying (we get them free in wales!) it may be as cheap to buy - may be worth investiating? Well done on both counts though! We'll get there!!
