Work has been stressful today , just non stop . I overslept slightly so that meant I bought toast at work 75p then had crisps at lunch time with my salad 50p . Don't ususally by crisps but just needed comfort food. I have a to do list tonight and need to crack on , it's mostly financial.
Early night again hopefully as well.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Glad you've decided not to upgrade your apple stuff until it conks out Cumbria. The money will do more good in your bank account than in apple's
Well done on surviving the childcare

Hi,
I’ve just realised as you replied on my diary that I haven’t seen any posts from your diary in a while. I’m not sure why as I’m sure I subscribed a while ago, will try again!
Well done on going to the gym regularly!0 -

Have come home from work early , didn't feel 100% . Think I have had a mild case of the stomach bug the DGC have had.
Anyway I wasn't well at work so they sent me home. I am in my pjs taking it easy. I don't really do illness so am not a good patient. However today I am just going to sit and do not very much.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
