    Morning all...

    Penguin - well done on paying the card off...

    :bdaycake:Happy birthday smashed! :bdaycake:

    I'm cautiously optimistic about the weather - started the day with goreous clear blue skies and thought there are a few clouds here and there (and some dark grey clouds around :eek:) I can still see a fair amount of blue and brightness as well!

    Went to fat class last night - SIL lost 1.5lb, and I decided to get weighed rather than just do the exercise and good news is wearing all my exercise gear (trainers, jogging pants, t-shirt and jersey cardigan thing that I forgot to take off) I weigh less than my scales at home:j :j. But was home so late that we decided to have takeaway pizza for tea instead of sausage, egg and chips we were planning on having! I haven't yet withdrawn any money from the bank this week as I had money left over from last week so I'm going to see how long £8 will last me for (though I do need to put petrol in the car and I'll do that by switch rather than cash:o)!

    Hope everyone has a good day.

    Hello!
    Well I've had a very productive day so far!
    washed & dried bedding & put back on the bed
    hoovered up
    cleared out old magazines
    put in cheap Morrisons bedding plants and swept up.
    Entered quite a few comps and prize draws on here,
    got quite angry when an automated 'no better than pirates' debtline called me up! Bsatards!
    Phew, just the ironing to go now really!
    How is everyone?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Bored linda, have been doing housework, and sorting out ready for going to Cornwall at weekend. Have sat down with a brew and perusing!
