            Hope Thorpe its not too snowy near you. We’ve got snow forecast for a couple f hours in the morning but I’m hoping everywhere is too wet for it to stick. The Pennines (I can see them in the distance on my way home from work) looked beautiful- all white. But that’s about as far as my appreciation of the white stuff goes. Pretty in the distance as long as I don’t have to walk in it.January spends - £587.587

            Morning You can never have enough stationery in my humble opinion lol. Are there any that can be bundled into little sets for token gifts? I have 4 books at the side of me all used for different things on a daily basis! xx                        6 You can never have enough stationery in my humble opinion lol.

            Is that because you've lost motivation or do you need people to help you with things? Shall we start a 'motivate Beanie' day or use reverse psychology like I did with the DC's when they were little - "bet you can't clear 6 items in the next hour" type of thing xx                        8 xx                        8

            That's annoying about the coffee and jeans. Maybe you've done enough for today. Have a rest and recharge your batteries. xx8

            Always sad to lose a pair of comfy jeans, they take so long to get just right. I also have loads of stationery, I love a nice new notebook I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6 I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
