  • Right I had £29.20 in my account I wasn't needing this week so I have paid it off my card. Have added much more than that but I am definately back in the mood. Tried to get online in work today to see what my wages are going to be with bonus and back pay but the damned thing crashed so I haven't a clue grrrr.

    Woohoo :beer: :j . Son has migraine related vertigo. You may think it odd that I am celebrating but in comparison to it being a brain tumour I am one happy lady. I just feel like melting into a puddle with relief. Nothing else matters at the moment except the racket he is making is doing my nut in :rotfl: . I've had another day where I have wasted about a tenner. Raffle tickets in work, dinner money for the kids and sandwiches and cake for me. Am going to cook some chicken now for dinner and make sandwiches for tomorrow whilst it is cooking.
    I'm soooooooooooo happy xxx

    Ah sweet! Glad it's something minor! :beer:

    Good Evening All. I've had something like that before when I didn't know what it was. I got severe pins and needles at the back of my head and real stabbing pains. It was so bad that I missed my brother getting married a few years ago.
    I still get them sometimes but not as severe, but I've also had Migraine/Vertigo symptoms too. It's not nice I tell you.
    In fact I've been off work today with a severe migraine and couldn't even lift my head off the pillow.
    I feel really bad as I've only just started this new job, but honestly couldn't get out of bed and it wasn't through drink either.

    Feel better now and will be back in work tomorrow.
    I have to close my eyes when I serve the customers as they bring some lovely stuff to the counter when I serve them and I want to buy it all.
    Anyway theres a 20% off day coming up in a week or two so I will try and finish my xmas shopping then.

  • Thanks everyone for all the nice thoughts. I had a fab sleep last night, totally dreamless and relaxing.
    I am training in an office in Glasgow just now and today when I went out at lunch I said to them that it was a bit of a minging area. To say the others were surprised is an understatement as they thought it was quite a nice area :o . Apparently a flat would set you back about £100k and that would be a bedsit. A 2 bed flat could cost about £400k. Houses are over a million. It is full of tenement flats and high rises. I think it is awful tbh and even if I had the money I would never live there. Yuk!!

    Have spent about a tenner today. Still cant access my payslip online as system was down- there's progress for you. At least when we got paper pay slips we could check our pay :rotfl: . Spoke to someone on approx the same rate as me and they got about £550 back money so hopefully I will too :D .
    I will pay the majority of it straight off of my card to make up for what I have spent recently. Scary stuff lol
    I was thinking last night that I am going to totally redo my snowball etc in the new year and include everything I owe including car, secured loan etc. I will update on 1/1/08 then faint no doubt x
