In Search Of Me's brand spanking (behave SS!) new 2008 diary...

In_Search_Of_Me

aww you are all lovely Had an absolutely manic work day today & literally didnt stopp - stuffed lunch down while making/answering calls! One of those days but TBH I thrive on em as dont like being bored!! Did a HUGE burp after drinking a diet fizzy drink which was gross but it slipped out which then lead to syns value of the drink (none!) & the yogs I've been stuffing (none!)...and then spent the afternoon feeling I'd been good buthadnt and had cocked up but have checked & I havent at all! Havent had any syns (yet!!) and will be enjoying a couple of bevvies with the thriller at 9! Working Sat so trying to do washing etc in the week (I usually try & leave it to the w/e) and also doing the zoo (albeit a day late - bins were yesterday so will have to go to the tip tomorrow!). Mr Weezl has picked up supplies of fatteing food (including my spreadable anchor which was the hardest to part with bizarrly!). Just has pasta and mince but dont feel v. hungry! Prob will in a hour! Cats are finishing it off!! Weirdo manu loves carrots! Must also clean bob who looks like he could do with a brush & run out of his cage!! Hope youre all ok...trying to keep up with people but feeling quite under pressure this week as work is manic (& next come to think of it!!). Tend to have bits like this...relative calm & then it all goes dolally!
Ps re the rolls...I sold the jam to a woman & mentioned I make bread. SHe is doing SW too so I said I would make bread rolls which she said good but did them small with the pathetic gram limit in mind, weighed them hoping they would be teeny but they were almost spot on...very depressing as barely a mouthful!!!

I know the feeling, grim isn't it? The weight of the rolls...

my old cat Tootsie loved beansprouts, he would nick them off your plate.

have you ever been to CAB? this is a daft question but do they means test? only on paper my finances look healthy but i never have money because i'm paying back debt and can't afford to pay for legal advice

Aww hugs LT. Have you posted your SOA? When I had my first LBM (have them regularly lol!) I rang CCCS in tears, with sick feeling and they told me to make toke £1 payments as would probably need to do a DMP. That was enough for me to get my a@@@@ in gear and start sorting and never went back! Had been up & down but thankfully I have a good salary and with making jam, pigsback etc have managed to chip away at it. Its gonna take years but I'll get there. Being a stubborn so & so and worried about the implications made me get to it...If you feel you need advice all I can say is I would go to one of the free debt agencies than CAB just because of my experience & the expertise. No harm in getting the figures togeather & asking is there? May help you know if its doable although for me being told I could do it made me do it IYKWIM! I was the same when someone old me I would never do a degree..one, a masters & post qualifying course later!!!! Stubborn moi? I prefer tennacious! Hugs for ya..let me know if I can help & feel free to pm if you want to...you dont need legal advice just free debt advice Plus looking at your siggy you ARE getting there, slowly but surely so try & focus on that eh! I know its hard & feels like quicksand sometimes though...

On a different subject seeing as its me diary Is anyone else watching the thriller this week on BBC1? Its the last one tomorrow and I do believe he done it! Why you may ask? Its the kitten...severe attachment problems, socially isolated, sexually frustrated & very good at the victim...we'll see (tomorrow!) but I think he'll get off but he did it! Lets see eh!
Bob happily running enthusiastically round his wheel in his nice clean cage. He has a bath and a toothbrush brush & looks fine as can be!! Bless him I'm getting quite fond of him! When he has a clean he's so cute! Sits & preens with his tiny hands & twitches his whiskers! Lovely...although the cats would love to get hold of him are content to look and when he comes to play they get locked out!!

Hi ISOM try and get some stress free time as you are so busy a nice long soak in the bath with a glass or two of wine(or whatever takes your fancy) sounds just the job.
You are doing well om SW ..well done..I remember the bread was about 57g or something like that..so not a lot...

I weigh out the HM bread, wholemeal and white, sometimes if i want two slices i have it as a syn value then i can have the healthy extras for something else.

bob sounds like he is settling in well. Are you sure he is being good?:rotfl:

Lemon tree i would definately give one of the charities a ring, their advice is free, but i noticed earlier on fermi had posted that it was quicker to get through to national debtline, than CAB.

I am glad you are a stubborn so and so as well ISOM..me too. People often think i have a quiet nature, if only they knew what i am like if i get the bit between my teeth.:rotfl:

hello me lovelies! Thanks for that taxi - take your own advce lol!! Get lobbing rocks I say! (no wastage unlike the sport of turnip lobbing!). Have just cooked a yummy meal and now chilling in readyness for the last thriller thonight (He did it me thinks!!) and then working tomorrow. A nice V&T (gin all gone!) is planned in and I shall chill away happily! How you doing today LT? Did you ring anyone? Hope you are feeling ok and less panicked today
Aww cute baby hedgehog on tv!!
Debt wise did ok ish with nsd until trip to asda for my steak & some sugar free drinks amongst a few!
Oo forgot o say that the woman I made he rolls for said it was "lush" and I suggested that we do a lunch swap - ie make each other coordinated meals & just swap! Seems she would be up for it which is great as means we'll both get variety with having to cook less! Cunning plan has come to fruition!

Meal swap sounds like a good idea...adds variety and glad to see you relaxing.have a good weekend.

You more taxi!! Have a good day
Bob I had a brainwave (also an early one so suspect it may be very cunning - they dont come often but are usually blinders when they do!) re potato bread - pots are generally free me thinks so with less flour I recon potato bread could be on teh slimming world menu which is fab cos its yummy & I rather miss bread!! Am asking weezl to calculate as recipe on there & her brain is very good at workings out - unlike mine that wont do it & makes me cry! Off to work I go! A nice day although rain on & off which isnt great but we'll have fun anyway! Got a nice eve of DVD planned for tonight!
