Aww...thanks kindofagilr...sadly life is never all roses is it...i saw a counseller last year who kept reminding me to 'count my blessings' and i guess that is what i should do. We all get **** kicked at us in life and either i need to learn to dodge it or wash it away and move on. I just feel locked in this negative prison with poor sleep and no energy pretty much all of the time. I have half decided to go to GP, I am finally considering HRT. Been going through early menopause for 3 years now and symptoms not letting up.
I do however feel positive right now, so I do have my moments haha....really, i do!!
Have signed up to lots of debt free wannabe challenges for 2016...sold a barbell and dumbell set yesterday on FB for £25 to some young lad who has obviously set his NY resolution. Well, I can't grumble, only paid £40 for it and was expecting £15 :rotfl:
Also got a new customer so arranging to book them in the diary for a treatment. Made an additional £23 yesterday for a last minute treatment :T ...£48 gone straight to that lingering BOSS card debt, now standing at £245. The best thing is that my DEBT cards are now under £18,000! :j#4 DFBXMAS24 - £2,322.85/£5,000

Dreaded lurgy still lingering..worked from home yesterday morning. Work have been amazing, called me and told me to take today off of work to rest and get doggy settled.
Another trip to vets yesterday for further tests as last ones inconclusive. I was so angry about their service (or lack of it, and the fact the vet does not appear to have a clue) that they actually gave me a free consultation and tests!! :j
Today I HAVE to complete some challenges and chores:- Min one treatments
- Empty shed
- Washing
- Hoovering
- Complete job application

List items on the Bay 30/20
Empty kitchen cupboards and clean 3/6
