    ugh no one told me I had to confess to food sins... ok

    I've eaten a family pack of Jammie Dodgers this weekend.:o I even hid them from the kids :o:o

    Oh, and there's the small matter of the fun size cadbury's caramels, which were here in the office...

    Spent £30 on night out on friday night. Got over emotional at the harvest service at church today and gave more than I can afford. Probably behaved appallingly on fri as I remember NOTHING of the last 4 hrs ish.

    Forgive me? ;)

    I took my mum out and brought us both a HUGE clotted cream tea which I didn't feel bad about at all till I caught sight of the belly in a mirror. Oh and I ignored the sandwiches I took to work for lunch and went to McDonalds:confused: (vile - don't know why I did it).

    waaaah! I wanna kitten!

    Ive been a bad gurl. I fell off the drink and the money bandwagon this week.
    I had taken a week off (Ive been working overtime like theres no tomorrow and needed a rest) I'd say I was £50 spending for the week, in comparison to my usual £10 - £20.

    I DID however find my old credit card - so the Subject access request is on its way tomorrow - Im hoping for enough to clear my existing credit card... it WILL be gone for Christmas!

    Where do I start?
    The chinese on Saturday night?
    The 'OK' magazine?
    The lunches from the staff cafe at work?
    The suit jacket from Tesco?


    I surely am going to hell in a handbasket

    Forgive me Martin

    .....and drink pimms and lemonade by a lovely chiminea and pretended that we were actually in the algarve in bikinis. All well so far so good as completely free as everything taken from our cupboards.

    DH collected me after said pimms had been finished and red wine started..........!


    should you not be saying Forgive me Martin for i have Pimmed!!

    I have been good this week, my online spending diary says nothing which i feel bad about! No MSE sins,but plenty immoral thoughts.... which thread do i report them on!?!?!?

    Pass me my MSE halo!! :A
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
