Life´s tough

My sitting room, once full of flowers and ornaments, is piled high with brown parcels, as I post off my student books, catalogues of fashion exhibitions I loved, DVDs given by ex-boyfriends, and novels I bought to be a different sort of woman (but never had time to read). It’s shaming — and perplexing — in equal measure. How did I get here?

By being frigid between the sheets is my best guess!!

:laugh
 
Life certainly is tough.

Someone from the red cross is actually handing out cyanide pills.
 
For my birthday in August, my little sister gave me cash to settle my newspaper bill. She runs her own IT consultancy and understands the volatile job market — but she’s always been more sensible than me. She made provision for the lean times. How I wish I’d done the same.

Did anyone notice this?
 
Oh yeah, didn't think of that. Of course her utility bills, council tax and mortgage will have halved too, won't they?

No... but that was my point - the only thing in her life which has changed is that she now earns less than she did....

so unless you do change your luxury outgoings to cope with the fact you no longer have the same income you will quickly get into debt...

I was just wondering why she found it such a revelation that she had no money when it is quite obvious why she does not



oh yeah and she probably does not take it up the Oxo tower which is why she has only just found a bloke

:eyes

I think the point of the article is that she has changed. She has had to.
