Daily Chat: May 6th-New Day, New Beginnings!

Well, 2 weeks after deciding to thrown in the towel on a 15 year relationship, I'm moving out on my own (well, kids as well!)

I didn't sleep much last night because thoughts were zooming room my head.
I will need all you lots to keep me on the straight and narrow money wise so I don't make a huge balls up of it...

It's lovely and sunny here today-long may it continue.

Hope everyone is well xx

    Good luck!! New beginnings indeed. Enjoy xx

    I have "New beginnings" of a different nature for me - I am going back to my "old" career. Today is my first day......hair is newly coloured, new pluck free tights are ready to wear and I have managed to lose half a stone so I can get into my old work clothes without having to buy any more!

    Good luck to everyone doing anything "new" or "big" today! I think there are a few of us starting new jobs, and of course Bunny making her big move!

    xx

    Good morning

    Bunny - hope the move goes well and you get settled into your new home in no time.

    A hot bath, a generous application of deep heat and the largest glug of vodka have done nothing for my back. I've had a disturbed night's sleep waking up every time I moved. Driving is not going to be safe (painful changing gear and putting the handbrake on). Am going to phone doctors later about it cos paracetamol isn't working.

    Thank heavens the computer chair is comfortable cos a day without MSE would be the final straw. And at least I can feel like I'm doing some work from home...

    Hi everyone. God it sounds like you're makig some life changing moves Bunny. I hope everything works out for you. It's so brave to move out of a relationship that isn't right after 15 years! You should be so proud of yourself!
    Cat I hope your back feels better soon. Did you know you can take ibroprofen and paracetamal together? Sis is a pharmacist- very useful to know. I suffer from a bad back too,,,horrendous....Poor thing.
    Anyway, hope everyone has a nice day. Good luck with the job Hypon!

    Morning Guys

    Well Done Bunny, sound like you have sorted everything out.

    My new beginning. Well I think I have had a second LBM. Did some much needed shopping over the weekend.... Only problem is most went on my credit card :eek: :eek: :mad: :mad:

    SO.... cc is now at home where spending can't be done :T And I am going to start paying it off. But I have everything I need to take me back into last years summer wardrobe (once I have slimmed into it, 3.5lbs off so far!)

    But like Bunny I will probably need some help.
