Badly in need of this at the moment, much hassle surrounding life in general!

OK...
1. Have managed to get out of financial crisis by selling a few things and OH helping me out a bit.
2. Getting on well with OH at the moment.
3. I've got this forum which makes me smile, makes me feel like I'm not alone and makes me see sense when I think about doing stupid things like looking at consolidation loans.
4. The people I share an office with are great.

ps Hypno, your muffins sound yummy!

Storm

I want to go round Hypno's for muffins!

OK, positive things from me:

- My brother is coming out of hospital tomorrow :j
- They're repeating Life on Mars on BBC4 so I can finally get to see the 2nd series (missed it comletely 1st time round!)
- I've got next week off work :T
- I've paid all my bills this month, stocked up the freezer & cupboards etc and still got a decent amount of my budget left

... and a very long one, but...

- if it's still raining when I leave work my hair will get soaked, which will save me precious seconds of water & electricity in the shower as I was going to wash it tonight anyway

Afternoon All,

What a great thread and idea. Glad everyone is well and happy and able to find the silver lining!

Now let me see:

DH and I are very much in love and happy and it's been over 2 years of married bliss now, nearly 8 years total!
My cat is sleeping on the spare bed and looking very cute indeed (he's been awfully loving of late, very purry and huggy!)
I am working at home today so will make myself a nice cuppa soon and put a load of washing in
It's my BIL's b-day so prob seeing family tonight for a bit of a celebration
I think my expenses Vs expenditure will mean I can pay an extra hundred quid of the cc next week
I've eaten yet more leftover BBQ pasta salad for lunch so am hoping I manage a NSD
You lovely people on here cheer me up no end

Hugs to all,
ntl

Well mostly it's a horrible day because we had to have our cat put down this morning.

But...

• I had a tax rebate of £108.51
• My brother has passed his second exam towards becoming a mortage broker
• Everyone in work is lovely and being really nice to me and giving me cups of coffee and pain au raisins
• I'm the only person in the office so I can play my cds very loudly. Always nice.

Good Afternoon all,

what a lovely thread .................. I have been sat here thinking of all the positve thing's in my live today and this is what I have come up with..

1. I managed to get out of bed get my self and kids ready and was only 15mins late for work!!

2. I am no longer in debt and won't dread the post when I get home.

3. The hugs and kisses my boy's give me just when I need them.

4. the pay yourself till in sainsbury's gave me £5 to much change which meant my lunch only cost 74p whoo.

5. And it gave me 2 more £2 coin's so that total's going up nicely.

6. Diazepam - for helping me forget the sh*t going on in my life!!!!

7. I am finally starting to feel that I am ready to cut the dead wood out of my life and start living again!!!
