    Just spoken to my Boss's FIL and apparently things are ok. Boss's Dad is a bit stronger and his heart is doing ok, he is still going in and out of sleep but they are less concerned about him.

    Sounds a bit better doesn't it.

    My positive thing for today is going to be healthy eating. Today I will take the positive step of filling my body with good and healthy food!

    Just listed 4 things on Amazon, which I guess can go down as another positive thing. If they don't sell onto Ebay they go!

    Afternoon all.

    Well I think I am suffering from one of the long days in history, it is truely never ending :confused:. I have done nearly all the work I need to do but I am so bored!!

    I'm dropping round a friends for a cup of tea on the way home, but I want to go now!! I've had enough of work it's time for holiday and christmas.

    I've got a tiny bit of filing to do and then that's about it. Still I'll see how long I can drag it out for. :rolleyes:

    Afternoon Everyone!

    I hope you all had lovely christmas's!! I had a great time, although I have had a cold since Boxing Day :rolleyes: Still is hasn't stopped me enjoying myself. Currently having a New Year tidy up. I've managed to sell a few bits on Amazon :j Which goes straight into my OD.... Must going and update my sig!

    Other than the cold I am doing ok, over spent a little but it is christmas and the Amazon sales take the pressure off paying something off my OD. OH and I could decided what he was going to get me for Christmas so he is going to replace the tyres on my car for me :D Which while really boring saves me some money, also got some smellies and new jeans from him.

    Feeling positive about the diet, although I have been eating ice cream. For medical purposes of course, I have had a very sore throat!! :rotfl:

    Back in work tomorrow and we still haven't worked out what we are doing for New Year's Eve... Nothing like leaving it late!

    Take care xx

    Morning Everyone.

    Well First day back at work and it's really early!! Still it is nice to get back into it slowly with a day off tomorrow!

    As you can see from my sig I will enter 2008 at under £14,000! Which is really exciting I can't wait to see where I end up next year.

    I've just found out that my Boss's Dad died just before christmas. I guess he isn't suffering any more.

    Hi Lucy.

    Sorry about your bosses dad, thats must have been terrible for him.

    Congrats on getting your debts bellow 14k!! Thats a great achievment! My lodger didnt give me my rent money early:cry: so I couldnt pay off my credit card off in 2007, but it will be gone as soon as his rent money comes. I am a little disapointed but I guess the rent money is for 2008 so should be counted as a 2008 repayment.

    I am glad your Amazon sales are going well. I listed loads on Ebay on Saturday and quite a few things have bids on already:D
