Hello all! Still away from home at the mo, not done a great deal apart from lazing about, eating and drinking. Oh I did go for a run one day! Looking forward to NYE out with friends later Hmmm, what else... Ex/OH has been a pain so still have to deal with all that when I get back. Have spoken to CBOH quite a bit and he is just lovely... Money-wise, things will be tight when I get back, but all the bills are covered. Joined the 'pay off... by end of 2009' challenge, it was my original plan to be DF by then so I'm going to give it a go, though I'm not entirely sure how at the moment! First step should be to sort out laptop so I can get back to the online stuff properly. Might start a new diary too as it will be a new year and also the final year of my 20s! :eek: Anyway, lots of thanks and hugs to all of you who've been so supportive this year and here's to a great 2009! xxx

Hi all - was going to start a new diary for the new year but not given it much thought yet! Back at work today which isn't too bad so far I suppose - kind of glad to be back into normal routine. It's also my birthday - only one year till I'm 30, eek! :eek:

Money-wise I'm ticking over, got some money for Christmas/ birthday which I'm going to use to buy new trainers and some running stuff, and a few essentials (like socks!), leaving a bit to make sure I make it through the month. Need to have a think about things like grocery budget as I've not really bought anything over the holidays! Relationship-wise.. don't even ask.. I thought I had sorted things out with ex and he had accepted it but no... much confusion and upset, sigh... :rolleyes: Aside from that I am feeling relatively positive in a new year, new start sort of a way - onwards and upwards!

OK'ish, long story ( feel free to PM ) but Iustina will not be coming back to UK any time soon ( immigration issues, mostly ) so I've had to draw a line and get on with it....whatever 'it' is.
This year is for me, gonna stop doing or saying what I think the ther person wants me to!
Enough of that.....when do we move into our place in Tuscany?:D

Aww that's a shame, you don't think you would go and visit her over there? Good on you for your New Year attitude though - I could do with a bit of that!

Tuscany.. well, I just need to pay off this debt and make a small fortune first... :rotfl:
