    I agree with Luc BB, that ship has sailed, but at the end of the day, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.....! and you are a strong person, so please don't beat yourself up about what coulda been......

    I'm not a person who ever goes back in life work wise, so I agree, my career there is well and truly over.

    On a lighter note though - i've had an email from the lovely artist who is drawing Charlie and she is going to add a progress picture to her site and blog at some point today. Apparently so far, he has one ear and one eye!

    When I went to get Charlie the other day my ex said that he had seen the website with the announcement on "Charlie is the lucky winner (and owner Keren)" and I think he was a bit sad that he wasn't also mentioned as owner but as I said - I entered him!!! It didn't even cross my mind to mention he was his 'Dad'!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    aahhh but how did it feel to say, "yeah okay, i have that £200, no probs" and not have to worry about where it would come from?

    I often daydream about what my debt free life will be like... next year sometime... i suppose i'll just start renewing the old things in my house, recarpeting, proper decorating as opposed to just painting, maybe a newer car etc etc..... plenty things to spend money on...

    I didn't think of it like that .... I have to admit it does have a nice feeling to know that I am on top of thing's the only thing is now I don't really like spending money well not as much as I used to :rotfl::rotfl:I actually think before I spend now where as before I would have spent all my wages and the rent money on clothes, going out, etc etc
