In The Red: Temptation...
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2011/02/temptation.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Wednesday, 16 February 2011. Barely a day has gone by this year when I haven't received an e-mail, text, letter or call from my lost love, desperate to see me and unable to understand why I've so abruptly called a halt to our union. And while my heart leaps with every contact, I know that I can't give in. Apart from the obvious guilt of breaking my promise, I'm not feeling toned and trim enough for all that unzipping in front of floor to ceiling mirrors. Ha Ha - sorr...

In The Red: World Holocaust Week
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2011/01/world-holocaust-week.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Friday, 28 January 2011. It's World Holocaust Week and today I was privileged enough to meet Eva Schloss, the step-sister of Anne Frank. It was both humbling and captivating listening to Eva today, so if you can, please take the time to find out more about the story of her life by clicking here. Posted by roaring forties. 29 January 2011 at 08:06. I read Anne Franks Diary and was reduced to tears by her story. Yes I will read Eva,s life story. 29 January 2011 at 10:17.

In The Red: I Think I've Had A Brainwave
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2014/01/i-think-ive-had-brainwave.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Wednesday, 8 January 2014. I Think I've Had A Brainwave. Despite cringing when I look at how long ago it is since I last blogged (I can only apologise for being such a slattern), I think it's important to start off a new year with a happy and positive attitude. So, I'll make this post short but sweet and instead point you to the wise words of the scientists who looked at brain functions relating to addiction. Posted by roaring forties. Follow me on twitter.

In The Red: A Lot Of Money For Honey
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2011/09/lot-of-money-for-honey.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Wednesday, 21 September 2011. A Lot Of Money For Honey. Exactly three years ago I had a lobectomy after finding out I had carcinoid cancer, so today has been a bit of an emotional mixed bag. Mainly elation that I'm alive, to be honest, but also a little disappointment that I still don't feel back to my bouncy old self. PS - a big thank you to my other half for paying for the Manuka Honey after I fainted on seeing the price, although I felt that dragging me from Waitr...

In The Red: Monte Carlo or bust!
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2011/01/monte-carlo-or-bust.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Thursday, 27 January 2011. Monte Carlo or bust! I'm rather sad to report that after an absence of nearly 40 years, the Monte Carlo rally kicked off in my home town of Glasgow. And I missed it! The irony being that it was because I was stuck in a car on the motorway, which wasn't motoring in any way. My chequered flag will remain unfurled for another year. What I've decided on leaves me eight years to clear my debt, learn basic mechanics, find myself a 1968 MG BGT (I'...

The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Friday, 24 December 2010. It's Christmas Eve - the presents are wrapped, the tree is twinkling and I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. I hope Santa Claus bring you all the good things you wish for. Posted by roaring forties. 24 December 2010 at 22:50. This is the time of year when I can say with hand on heart that I miss Glasgow, I miss the cold, I miss the busy shops, and I miss the people. From our house to yours MERRY CHRISTMAS.

In The Red: Promises to keep - 2011
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2011/01/promises-to-keep-2011.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Monday, 3 January 2011. Promises to keep - 2011. Happy 2011 and good wishes for the year ahead! I apologise that they're belated good wishes, but the New Year signals the opportunity for fresh starts and with that comes promises and resolutions - except I've been so busy writing and re-writing the promises and resolutions, that the days have already flown by without a single good deed being done. 1 See my friends more often.

In The Red: Step Away From The Sale Rail!
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2012/01/step-away-from-sale-rail.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Saturday, 21 January 2012. Step Away From The Sale Rail! I know times are tough for retail and for that very reason, I feel awful posting a blog asking fellow shopaholics to step away from the sale rail, but for the good of a dwindling bank balance it has to be done. But this year is different. But for the restrained shopper there are still bargains to be had. In a moment of consumer clarity, I found two really great dresses from Zara reduced to just over £2...The op...

In The Red: 2012 - It All Becomes Clear
http://inthered-alexis.blogspot.com/2012/01/2012-it-all-becomes-clear.html
The Diary of a Recovering Shopaholic. Monday, 2 January 2012. 2012 - It All Becomes Clear. Clarus: the latin word for 'clear', which over time has gone through Italian and French alterations and ended up being Clari (admittedly, not a massive change considering it probably took place over hundreds of years). But, those are the first five letters of just three things that are going to make a big difference to my life in 2012. Clarity: No more faffing around! I'll keep you posted on whether it's all going ...
