I echo the others, can't say it any better.
I'm happy to see the lighter nights are creeping in! It feels like it's been so long of 'dark'

Great that the loan is showing 0 :T can't wait for my CC to show the same.

Like everybody else has said it's your diary and I don't think you should give a second thought to what you write. I've not been on here long but you're obviously very supportive to other people when they're going through difficult times, it's only fair that you get support from other people.
Enjoy the takeaway and hope you get a good nights sleep. xx0 -

Hope you enjoyed the takeaway - what kind did you order?
As for what you post, I think these diaries are about the reality of life which will be different for different people. Your diary so - your life. And as has already been said you are always supportive, helpful and non judgemental on other diaries and I for one appreciate that and I know I'm not alone!0
