    Well a busy day today and I am 100% crackered...taxi would have been on the m4 according to bob! Moved some books, did bins/cat litter and decluttered the kitchen and then went to tip and dropped car boot stuff at weexl's who is kindly storing things for me. Then came home and had a sleep, put covers back on the sofa (& ripped the zip...) and did 1/2 the hoovering (will do rest tomorrow) and back done by then so had a nice bath and made a banana cake which is yummy...will have cereal for tea as just cant be bothered to do anything else!! washed down with some nice red!

    Right my friends I've had another lbm...feel like I've been bimbling of late and have just posted on long haulers why I am going to try and do better. Cant say too much as its a public forum but suffice to say that events in the last few days have given me renewed vigour for paying this millstone off...so will go through the house and declutter, do car boot, try and sell my tiffany ring again (good time coming up to christmas) and really go for it on the gb. Tonight is the start of my eve class and my mate at the allotment has got some weedkiller for me so will pick that up on the way and hopefully swap for jam or eggs!

    Another friend is going to give me a hand with the plot which is a relief so will blitz the plot and then clear/dig ready for next year. Both of us are unable to dig for a couple of weeks so seems sensible to zap it now!! Spraying is easy after all!! Will also try and do a bit of skip diving for wood to make paths up...must also start using freecycle more..

    So there you go - me feeling angry at myself and the debt! Time to get off my a@se. Not greatly assisted today by a migraine but hopefully that will vanish soon with tabs...oo yes also discovered that I'm due about 60 from quidco this month which will help!
