    Okay a happy Dragon, I emailed the nails lassie and cancelled the appointment, I did make a point of saying that I would a) use her again and b) would recommend her and that was not flannel .. if I could afford it frankly I would have her round here weekly! (hmm maybe that is my treat for being debt free :D). So what now? well try and bust this debt, try and bust the weight and try and bust the house cleaning! Not much then :rotfl:

    The debt busting is in hand (yay!), the weight, well I need to start tracking my food again with a vengeance BUT that can't really be done until next week (going to see my parents and Dr Dragon's family this weekend), house cleaning/de-cluttering again this will kick in on Tuesday so all things are falling into place, the thing is if my house is tidy I feel better and my weight comes off (allowing for the hypothyroidism), and if the weight comes off I feel better in my self and I am able to do more, which means the house will be better. which means I feel better and so on!
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    Hiya Dragon and everyone :)

    I know what you mean about having your nails done - this wasn't something i used to have done but when things got tight with money the luxury that went was my haircuts & colours which I stopped completely. I tried to colour it myself and the results weren't good :eek::eek::eek: It was only after going to a wedding and seeing the photo's that i realised how bad my hair looked having not been cut for about 2 years :o I have only just started to have it done regularly again and the cost is less than half what i used to pay when i was in a well paid job. Even so the expense is one i could really do without as i have no budget for this :o:o:o

    Well done on getting so far on your crocheting :T I am looking to start crocheting again so may contact you for some tips if thats ok? ;)

    I have not weighed myself recently and just started exercising again. First day out yesterday running and its left me shattered today :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Thank you - we dropped The Furry Dragon (tm) off at the kennels and he bounded out of the car, up to the kennel maid and dragged her off wagging his tail :eek: ungrateful little monster :o, heading off first thing tomorrow

    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
