Happy Friday too

Today should be an SFD. Made a GP appointment today. I want off the depo. I'm eating a lot less than I used too and just maintain my weight, moodswings getting out of control and yes my periods are lighter but last for 3weeks, so very effective as a contraceptive . Anyway rant over.

Not much else to report.

Thank GOODNESS it's Friday! I have had enough. Am out of work in the next 20 minutes and heading home via the gym. Might have a friend over for food and a movie so I will check in later today or tomorrow... Sorry for lack of updates today but there really ain't much to report.

Onwards and Upwards!!!

Hi all

It's the summer holidays I'm so pleased, excited and knackered.

dolly hope you are feeling a little cheerier this afternoon

Sorry to hear the repo doesn't suit you thrifty. The docs want me off it, but I'm resisting, I guess the only benefit would be potential weightloss!

lilt what a lovely surprise to have your parents there early and buying you chocolate

Today is SFD, number 9 I think I needed a present and card for a friend today but was determined to keep my SFD. I found a few items to regift and together they made a lovely present, plus used a card from a gift set . Also went for a drink after work but was treated by a colleague, so a pretty very good day so far

Tomorrow will be a spend day as it's the Next sale, and my twice annual clothes buying trip. My list is work trousers, work dresses, leggings, nude bra, hoodie, ballet pumps and any birthday/Christmas presents/cards/wrapping paper. I know I won't get all of these but I intend to buy nothing that is not needed, so if it's not on the list, I'm not buying it.

No exercise today but I've decided to have a resting weekend, then exercise everyday from Monday.

Didn't check in yesterday. Came home from work after two hours with a mega migraine. Haven't had one for a while. I think it's the heat and the stresses of moving.

Didn't have any tablets at work so couldn't have stayed there. Couldn't see the screens anyways. Came home, took some tablets, slept and felt a bit better. Just got to be careful the next few days and not over do things.

Got a letter from eon today saying that my closed account is in credit. A whopping £13 odd. It won't go to budgets, it will just go to the moving fund. If I can ever work out how I get it back that is. Working tomorrow but Sunday off so I can relax, if it ever cools down any!

Evening everyone!!!

Had a really great day here - cleare dmy desk at work which has left me feeling like a weight has been lifted. Only in work two days next week before nearly 2 weeks leave! I can't wait...

I'm going to have more than enough fuel to get me to work next week and so I should have a few £ to buy essentials like bread and milk with too until Friday.

Didn't make the gym today, but now I know there's not as much of a fuel crisis I will probably go tomorrow.

Thanks for your comments on the penny jar!!! I always mena to spend them as I go along to avoid said build up and embarassment in shops! I know I shouldn't feel like that - it's legal currency and all - but the look on most people's faces is priceless when you chuck a load of coppers on the counter haha!!!

Right - night in with a film I think! Have a good one and catch you soon!!! x

Today I am grateful for a morning run and not tripping up or running face first into a low branch, for last night's amazing thunderstorm, for dd's unconditional adoration, for bags being packed ready to go early tomorrow, for getting 8 hearts crafted.

Hello all. We are having the most incredible thunderstorm!! Purple forked lightning lighting up the entire sky and streaking over the sea! The thunder is rattling the windowpanes but the rain is thankfully mild. No ballerinas dancing on the windowsills tonight.

I didn't do any exercise today. Mum and dad dropped me off at and picked me up from work so 4 miles of walking gone, !!!!!!! Have to say it was lovely leaving home 20 minutes later and getting back 20 minutes earlier though. Promise to make up for it tomorrow!

TV hasn't even been on, as is always the case once him has gone. I've read some of my book and generally relaxed. Need to update my budget.

SFD was not had. Popped to Mr S with mum. Kept it under £10 but even still, naughty! Will update my sig. Getting too close to that target for comfort! Will feel much better this time next week!

Dolly feel for you about the kids growing up so quick! DD is 2 and a quarter and it has gone past in a blink of an eye. She starts a nursery attached to a school in September :eek:!!!

Have a lovely night all! xx
