    I've stopped for a lunch break :rotfl:

    How far have you got?

    Just one room left to do here, but that needs a deep clean...think I've done my lot for today. :o

    Just stopped! All my rooms could do with a deep clean :o. But I'm visitor ready now and have got the afternoon to catch up with other things. Normally I loiter all day so that was really good thanks. :)

    Happy days. :)

    It's funny how a diary about debt spills over into some many other areas of your life too. I am now using mine as a To Do List as well. :T

    I just had a phone call from DD needing picking up early and was great to be all tidy when we got home. :) thanks Ali..

    mfmaybe. Hello and welcome. I hadn't thought about it before but it is really good to have somewhere 'safe' to go to moan, share, offload but is also really positive. :)

    :)have a great afternoon all :). Off to have a cup of tea and then start on my list :)

    Well I did a really long shift so not been home long. Spaghetti on toast and am now resisting sweet things. Really hard as two lots of birthday cakes. Then a customer offered me biscuits and finally MIL offered me cake. In the end came away with chocolates to eat on Saturday if I behave all week. Going to have a milky coffee and avoid the ice cream.

    Do feel better though and I would have eaten all of the above if I wasn't doing this. But I did have lots of crisps :o

    Yum

    Wanted to do some interview prep but too tired. Bed time now methinks.

    Crisps will be my big downfall, I just know it :D

    Well done on the sweet treat ban - that's quite a haul to avoid! Liking the end of week treat idea though. :)
