When I think about this pile of debt I have, I see it as a huge mountain and me carrying away little bits of it at a time. Knowing it's going to crumble at some point in the future.(Tried googling images for a little cartoon, can't find one anywhere.)

Having still to beat this smoking business I dipped in to Allen Carr again yesterday. He says you should see the fight as already won, no mountain to climb. Once you've stopped you are at the top. Just stay there. I hate being a slave to nicotine. I'm trying again - today. I think the key is to relax through the craving, it's not going to last. I think I should relax more anyway. I don't always have to be doing something.

Something I did do yesterday was clear our junk cupboard, you know wghere it all goes 'cos it hasn't got a home. Amongst the various wires, scarts, odd gloves and freebie CD's the papers give away, I found an old Michael Jackson CD single. Man In The Mirror, 1987. Looked on ebay and other CD collector sites, seems people are asking £35 for this CD ! Note I said asking, can't see anyone buying. So do I keep or sell ? If I sell, I'm not sure where.

Whilst fighting through another pile of ironing yesterday I watched and immensely enjoyed Educating Rita [1984]. A real feel good, motivational movie. Films like that always get me thinking, reflecting and motivated.

Finally, on Friday afternoon I got a few surveys through from Lightspeed (not an affliate link). I think this was a direct result of my Cashcrate sign up. However Lightspeed surveys were very interesting compared to many I've done. Plus they convert points to cash and pay by Paypal. Recommended.

Smober and Sober

Very pleased and positive about the the last two days, although I have one confession, which has lead me to a decision. I have a mountain of energy, amazed at the difference, or am I just behaving like this because I've read/been told energy levels would be good ? Anyway I have a spotless car, the house is feeling the benefit and so is my sleep.

My one confession involves alcohol - again, last night I picked up a cigarette of DH and lit it for him, yes I'd had two lagers.
I've said earlier in my blog Idrink too much and I can't trust myself with the combination of alcohol and nicotine, so from today I'm going sober aswell as smober.
