    Hi Buffy - I feel fed up today too and have also spent too much just lately. I get mad with myself. Plus dog and both cats have been playing up today, dog has just emptied the contents of kitchen bin on the floor and is now sulking in her basket because I told her off.

    Don't feel guilty about buying new clothes if you need them.

    Too right you're not. We all have better taste than to voluntarily associate with a horrible person ;)

    Ditto all of the above - you are definitely not a horrible person. Must have been something in the air - I had a complete meltdown yesterday. Today was a far better day. Hoping tomorrow will be for you.

    How many weeks until your payday Buffy? 3? Split the £200 into 3 or however many weeks, does it look a bit more do-able?

    Hope you're feeling a bit better today! :)

    Sorry I wasn't around yesterday, I was also having a meltdown :o.

    Suffice to say, I also agree you are NOT (no way, nip, nada, nu-huh) a horrible person.

    Hope today has been better for you Xx

    How odd, I was working in a school today and thinking that it may not be a bad place to spend a working life. I guess appearances can be deceptive.
