Bye Birdie, have a nice night!
I've technically finished work, just waiting to go home. Off to scout for coupons now.
Managed to find two for one for prezzo, so if OH fancies pizza we're sorted! So that with a free cinema ticket, makes for a pretty MS evening out I think.0 -

I can't decide whether I'd like OH to ask Dad or not, I think I would but when my friend (another one) got engaged she said she was glad her hubby hadn't asked her Dad because she didn't want him to know about it before she did, she wanted the excitement of telling her parents about the engagement. Which I can sort of understand as well.
I got married at 32, had to wait a long time to meet the right man:rotfl:

I have an implant, after reading online and finding it was statistically more effective than surgical sterilisation (same chance of not working as if BOTH parties have been steralised!). Plus only have to remember to have it replaced once every 3 yeras, would never remember a pill each day.
Why aren't your OH's work paying him?! They can't demand pay back for work he did - that's not legal!
Firstly let me apologise for my multiple posts this evening, I am trying to catch up with the thread, and as I see things I want to reply!!
I had the implant put in back in March, its the best (although I had a huge embarresing bruise for a few days) It didn't hurt (and i'm a wimp) Not had a period since and feel fine and dandy!!

You could do a since you were 18, Flower! That's meant to be a 'bench mark' kinna birthday right?
Been at work since 7, not much to do, just having some biscuits as I had to skip breakfast to get here in time! Just checking my bank balance to make sure I have enough for the meal today, I think all my bills have gone out so I should have some to move to savings this week. More than £7.70 anyways. Want to be super MS this week coming so I can move a big chunk over next Friday, looks like another NT house this weekend, how will I cope?0 -
Morning all. I couldn't sleep anymore so I've come down to get details on my mystery shops for today. Have 5 to do. Which is good, because last night we realised I broke NIMs new laptop screen while he was away so we really need the money! I knocked the main computer monitor off the desk, and it landed on my foot (very bruised), but I didn't realise it then landed on his laptop and shattered the interior screen. So I'm expecting the repairs to that to be at least £150, pretty much the ammount we made over yesterday and today. Wierdly he wasn't annoyed at me, he said it wouldn't help matters, and he knows it was an accident. Was quite unnerving, even if it was an accident personally I'd always get a bit huffy!
