    ar, chin up mm, :o. i must admit, i had a really crap day yesterday. i felt really down and could do nothing but think of money, and lack of, and i was crying at nearly everything. i was just so low. but despite everything being exactly the same today-i do feel alot better, just for having a day in house with kids playing and watching a dvd. so maybe u should sit and do sumat to cheer yourself up?... put pretty woman on? ;)

    cheer up chic, itss never as bad as it seems, apparently. :o

    have u done owt towards your pesky debt today or not been able to with shopping bits etc? i was hoping for NSD, but had to go to post office to post ebay-so spent £2.38.

    u gotta eat though mm, so wouldnt be too down on the £13 shopping. :rolleyes:



    hope u feel better xx

    ew, ive re registered on the new grass roots site, and signed straight up for an assignment tomorrow night (yipee), so that is £10 towards my pesky debt.
    it says i should either get paid 1st or 15th sept, so hopefully will get it on 1st so i can use it towards my pesky, otherwise may have to lend it off my mum until 15th so i can still use it towards my pesky!

    oh, and checked weather forecast for saturday and looks like well be ok for the car boot!!!! yipee!!! also...., worked last night extra, and now working friday night extra, so that is 6hours extra in my wages this week, but may need that to use at weekend (with it being bank holiday), but it also means that anything we make on the carboot i should be able to use towards my pesky debt/ holiday balance-depending how much we get.

    good news all round boys n girls.

    how u feeling mm? any better?

    xx
