    Health and fitness one! I'm doing Jillian July with some of the Twitter girls if anyone wants to join us on that! Just realised I managed to sell four whole items on ebay yesterday, and I think that was my aim for June (albeit perhaps a few more than four) so I'm counting JDIJ as a success! :D

    Hey Peeps

    Poolie, nice to see you - how are things?

    NIM - Hope your new job went well yesterday :)

    Dinah - so happy to hear that Grace's christening went well and that your Mum is okay too. Sounds like you are making great plans. What a fantastic amount to have paid off the debt.

    AFM: My July challenge (apart from finishing the endless DIY) might be to keep the stress levels down by eating well and exercising.

    For anybody not following CMD's diary, I just found out I am pregnant! :j :eek: It is very early days but it seemed funny to posts on other threads but not here.

    I'm with Tete on a health and fitness challenge. :) I can't really plan on losing (note losing with 1 'o', people!!!!! :p) weight but I can aim to not put any extra on this month. :) I will do this by trying to eat sensibly and doing plenty of gentle exercise; not very exciting, but it's as good as I can get right now! :)

    I'm going to put JDIJ down as a success even though OH did the majority of the work! I had a good excuse to sit back and watch him work! :p

    Don't worry about not updating for a while Dinah, I'd only thought you'd all DIED.

    Congratulations Lara!! Is she another one of your dream people, Tete? I don't mean to worry you but I dreamt you and Zig had babies a couple nights a go (Lara too, maybe I have the gift now! :D)

    It's so close for you Wendz!! Will you be trying for another bambino afterwards? :)

    No July challenge for us, I don't think. We're kind of floating along at the moment, and I like it. I need as little stress as possible after the month I've had :o With a bit of Lara inspired motivation we went and bought our tiles on Sunday, so we're finally doing our JDIJ in July ;) rebels that we are!

    I've already said congratulations Lara, but I'll say it again because I'm so pleased! :D

    I think with all these home improvements we need some house-tour photos on the FB group to show off. :) Mainly because I'm nosey and want to see how everyone lives... but surely it's nice to share and to get opinions on empty spaces that need filling etc? :)
