Cinderella is proof that shoes can change your life!

Keep going shoe gal! You just need to get into a routine. I've started training at 615am weekdays and it's such a struggle to get out of bed at 540 but once I'm up and in kit it's fine. I think getting your kit on really helps. X

Lol! I've got kit on now but still faffing about instead of getting out of the door! No charge in my phone so I'm waiting for that!

Hey Shoegal, have you gone into hibernation? Missing your updates.


I've got an interview in the village where we are relocating to. It's at 3pm on Friday, and we've just come back from a weekend there, so no rest and no packing this weekend.

Good luck with the interview :j

Hello!

Well, it's been a while! My new job (and social life ) have made life pretty hectic for the last few months but now it's time to get back on track with stuff! Moneywise things are ok. Ironically, as I now have a better salary, I have been able to let things drift without it causing any problems but I know money is being frittered away and that I should be making inroads into my debt. It's not all bad! I've finally paid off my Frasercard (2 months without council tax helped!), and one of my old, original debts with a DCA has finally finished. I have diverted that £100 per month straight to a DD to one of my credit cards. I have also set up Christmas and holiday savings funds and cancelled my unused gym membership.

I've also bought a new car! This is actually pretty much self funding though! Cheaper insurance, better fuel consumption, zero tax and 4 years warranty and servicing! The monthly payment is almost covered by these savings.

I have thought about moving - I want some outside space (and a cat) but have decided in the last few days to put the idea on hold until next year. My company is moving early next year and I'm not sure how that will effect my already longish commute, and it would be good to move with a bit less debt!

So - the reason for the post title? I have been invited on a girlie weekend to Marbella :j but it's less than 4 weeks away - and I am not looking Marbs ready!!! . I have 25 days to lose 9lbs, tone up, glam up and shop! Hence Mission to Marbs - let the goddessing begin

I am also running the Great Manchester Run 10k on 18th May, and aiming to beat last year's time so I have 5 weeks to train for that alongside my Mission to Marbs!

Great to hear from you ShoeGal, you've been missed, there hasn't been enough glamour in MSE-world lately!


Get your running shoes on and run away those 9lbs. Lots of core exercises will also help the running, toning, gorgeousness and weightloss.

Thanks :A

Maybe I should go for a run instead of watching the marathon!!! I've also developed an obsession with Jillian Michaels! She's awesome - but again I'm watching not doing!!!

Thanks Buffy :A. I've been around and always read your diary

You know me, dinners, cocktails, ran the Sport Relief Mile (followed by pizza and fizz!). Actually stayed in last night, first Saturday in ages! I actually enjoyed some quality time with my kindle, read a book and a half! The new Jane Fallon, Skeletons, is fab and just stared the latest Dorothy Koomson

First day of Mission to Marbs - 5k run this morning and ordered Rapid Lash (half the price on Amazon that it is in Boots). Eating not good but I already had plans for Sunday lunch at my mum's so the dieting starts properly tomorrow
