Going through a slight wardrobe crisis – have enough clothes, don’t have money to buy more, but don’t like some of them and can’t sew. Hmm. Maybe some new jeans and boots would be allowed? Oh, don’t they come under the heading of clothes? Zut alors.

How I did it: Made sure I called people, let people know how I was feeling about them, listened a lot, made the effort to get in touch and stay in touch, sent messages and gifts when I thought someone could use a boost, and my speciality - worried about people and how I could help them. Glad I did this as my sister and I especially are in a much better place, and realised how much I love their company. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Work gave me a voucher and was going to upgrade my iPod (I love iPods!!!) but decided to use this on him instead of myself. He was really surprised and so happy but wanted me to use the money for myself. But the camera is something we can both enjoy and it will be great to use on our Caribbean trip (10 weeks and two days!!), and he has always wanted one. Very happy. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I wrote a letter asking for help, and also asking for a sign to say that he acknowledged my letter and was going to help me. The next day a white feather floated in front of me. My issue I wrote about in my letter was resolved benevolently and I felt stronger because of this. I have since written a few more letters, generally to ask for help for people I love, rather than myself. He comes through every time, I love him. Read how I did it…

Oooh, get me! Going to a fancy schmancy thing at work on Friday. Have decided on Monsoon’s Thea shift dress, Indra goddess ring and vintage chandelier earrings with insanely high black patent leather heels. Don’t normally ever wear black shoes but will be lovely with dress, I think. Feel free to Google the Monsoon website and tell me what you think. Wee bit conservativo for me, but it is work you know.
1. Getting chance to write another article for ‘that’ newspaper, albeit with 3 hours to go till deadline.
2. Worked some extra hours – will be able to take this off next Tuesday for voluntary school tutoring.
3. Husband making dinner.
4. Last night, nearly got a full night’s sleep, hurrah!
5. Spoke in (awful) French to lovely colleague from Brittany.
