    cool wd jen on going
  • Sorry i missed your post there MM, thanks so much, your soo sweet. I'm also hoping to do much better next year with the debt. This year i'm having fun and paying off as much debt as poss, next year is the year i kick my debt. If my calculations are correct i should be debt free by March, which isn't too bad.

    Lilmiss - my work are pretty cool with pay etc. They are a BIG company, so have the money to still pay me what i earn now. I normally make an extra £200+ a month overtime as they pay double time for any overtime i do, which is great as i usually do 2hrs+ a day!
    Is the company you work for family run? i always find family run companies the worst in regards to time off and pay etc. A bubba in a few years? sounds great Dawn.

    How did it go Jen?

    OH has changed his mind over the last 6 months or so about having a baby but we both want our own home before it happens so i will be about 26/27 and he will be 31/32 before it happens really.

    No its not family run, the MD is just a !!!!!! (found that word on here lol).

  • Thats really good ages to have a baby, one too young and not too old. I hope he sorts himself out a little before then and stops being a poo partner. I thinnk it was you who was having problems with your OH a couple of weeks back? if its not i'm sooo sorry Dawn. Didn't he let you down going to your nephews party? my memory is awful. Old age is setting in already, at 24, scary.

    !!!!!!, thats a pretty cool word. I had the C word, my OH keeps saying it lately, especially when driving, and i go absolutely mad at him, especially the time he said it in front of my 1yr old niece by accident. He always says bad words when he's angry, and he gets very angry driving lol.

    Wheres Jen? i have missed where she's been! sorry.
