WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :j.
Lilty my sweet I am sooooooo pleased for you, the universe is certainly looking after you.
Wait it out and karma will bite the nasty colleague on the ars3, it always does in my experience.
Take care and have a lovely weekend.x.0 -
i second everything plmbl said, well done x0

:D:D Thank you all so much!! I barely slept last night I was buzzing so much!!
Trying to come back down to earth so am doing a few surveys and things and trying generally to be normalwhich doesn't happen often in my house. :rotfl:
Jelly got me up at half 5, and the last time I looked at the clock it was 3am last night. So am suffering a bit today. I have still got issues with my face and have resorted to a steroid cream on my face.. :eek: around my delicate eye skin and mouth. They are very sore and hurt so much, and have swollen up again over the last day. Maybe through stress because they hadn't settled down properly. The cream allowed me to get some sleep as I couldn't even close my eyes properly.
Jelly is now recovering after her illness and yet again she is a bottomless pit and cannot be filled. She is on her third breakfast. :eek:
PWPS Karma sppears to have been biting her as it is. She has had illness after illness and been off work, which has impacted her wagesam a bit sad as her dog is very poorly at the minute and he is her baby, she has his name tattooed everywhere. I don't wish bad on her like that! And especially not her animals..
Anyway am off to make some toast and try and get into the bottom freezer drawer. Blooming chicken. So full of water that it expanded and stopped me opening the freezer drawer :mad:
Big hugs to all. Hope your weekends are starting well!! xx

So pleased Lilty. It's great to feel valued at work. It's such a huge part of our lives and can overshadow our home life so much.
Glad to hear Jelly getting better, but sorry to hear about your unwellness. I hope things start easing up all round now. XX
I just wanted to say about the sideboard purchase, isn't it funny when we can afford to buy something we get all picky and don't want it anymore. Its all about options isn't it, when we have the option to buy something or not, the desire seems to go away or not be so pressing and we take our time looking for something we really want and making our money elastic (so it really stretches):rotfl:

Lulu is the same with her breakfast. She had THREE Weetabix this morning, with whole milk, and still wanted more :rotfl: We're just off out to a birthday party and I imagine she'll just be standing near the buffet haha :rotfl: xxxThis is a system account and does not represent a real person.

INOD - Hobbit... :rotfl: she has furry ears not feet. But she is a bonafide midget. She is about a year behind on average growth charts, and has no legs. Age 1-2 on the bottom, 3-4 on the top :rotfl:
Thanks guys!! My face is getting there and jelly is currently bouncing on the bed behind me to Sara Bareilles - Brave.And asking for lunch..
Hope Lulu enjoys the party Becs!!! And bless her, she obviously has an energetic day ahead with 3 weetabix in her!!
SS it immediately changed my goalposts :rotfl: - and the reason is. I could kind of afford and justify a £100 purchase of something that was awesome for the money. And it could have been snapped up by someone else at any time which pushed me to go in and have a look. And then it wasn't as nice as I wanted it to bed and I now have a bit more elastic to stretch t something a bit better.. and that won't be so pressing as it won't just disappear, so I will take my time
Am about to condo my wardrobe. aka throw out everything I own.
I may come back and list what I have decided to keep. It will be about 3 lines :rotfl:
Tonight will be spent googling online and trying to figure out what I want and where to get it.xx

It's odd, I have occupational tact that only comes to the surface when dealing with clients. One of our partners has asked that I also employ it internally but, where's the fun in that!Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.
