    Aww GR I bet he was really nervous asking you that though, and hoping you'd give the answer he wanted to hear.
    Really sorry it didn't work out with DH but you've shown him how brilliant you are at succeeding without him.
    Have a great Tuesday and I'll keep my fingers crossed for your ebay.

    Good morning all,

    I've got that feeling in my stomach again today and it's because the witch is back in work! I keep thinking that I hope she's had a good weekend because that'll mean that she'll be in a good mood.

    Have just checked online banking and Amazon have paid me another £52 which has put a little smile on my face!

    Hope you all have a good day.

    Good evening, hope the day has been kind to you all. Very little happened in the girlracer household today. Still nothing off Halifax which is frustrating and a boring night ahead for me tonight.

    I have decided to try and claim some mis-sold PPI off 2 loans that I had off Welcome Finance. They were both paid off in 2006 and at the time of taking the loans out I was told I'd only get the loans if I took the PPI. I tried to claim it back last year but Welcome was having none of it. I'eve decided to try one of those no win no fee companies. I couldn't get anywhere with Welcome so if this company can it'll worth paying them the commission if they get something back for me. Am just filling the forms in now and will get them out in the post tomorrow. Think that's the only but of excitement for me today!

    Today wasn't brilliant in work I must admit. Sat in the car park. this morning thinking how easy it would be to just drive back home. Did go into work but was shaking inside and felt quite tearful. Its only me and her tomorrow so my boss has sent me out training for a few hours tomorrow morning to give me a breather. Nerves in shatters this morning whilst she slammed filing cabinet drawers shut and stamped around the place, I'm just hoping if the office is empty tomorrow the boss will be able to have a chat with her.

    I have never disliked anyone as much as I dislike her :(

    The weather has been lovely though hasn't it. Freezing cold this morning but it really brightened up this afternoon.

    I'm so sorry she has to be like that. She just sounds like a thoroughly nasty person who probably has a sad and lonely life and ,and makes everyone else's life a misery because of it!!
    Do you write it down GR what happens, it just gives you a bit of ammunition so to speak if you ever need it.

    Oh yes it's all written down. I truly believe in what goes around comes around so I'm just going to sit back and believe that my time will come!

    Middle of the week again and another early start for me. No wonder my boss is being s nice to me that's 2 out of 3 mornings he's had extra time out of me. Had a late night last night, ex called again and left about 12.30 ! We did manage to have a good chat and it was my opportunity to say that I am now with someone else and even though I'm happy to be his friend there is no chance of us getting back together. He realised that I've moved on and said that the last thing he was looking for at the moment was a relationship. He just needed a friend.

    On the money front nothing much happening. No Amazon sales, no watchers on my e-bay item and still no news from the Halifax. Am going to phone them this morning though and see whats happening. I have filled in the claim form about the Welcome Finance loan and see if the company can get anything back for me. I was unsuccessful with Welcome so if they get further than I did then it'll be worth paying them commission.

    Will update later with any news. Have a good day everyone.

    Have had quite a productive day today. Managed to phone the Halifax and was told that they have until the 17th to reply to my complaint. Only a few more days to wait so hopefully get something there. Also posted the letter to the claims company about mis-sold ppi. Still no watchers on my e-bay sale :(
