sami i was gonna wait til after bubs but im so forgetful that i know id probably forget before the time is up for renewal so gonna renew as normal then when bub arrives i'll just update then i dont need to rush ... the only think im confused about is maternity pay im not sure what to say about that coz of course my earnings will be lower but your still classed as working so do i tell them im on maternity leave or continue as normal as its still class as a wage x

With Chris I worked out about what my total earnings would be for the year and told them that I think... or I may have told them my 'current' wage (SMP) and then called again when I was on unpaid leave to say I no longer had any income and then called again when I went back to work (if I'd gone back)
does that make any sense?

I've been having a little cleaning frenzy this morning, I woke up and was compelled to clean the bathroom, it's sparkling now and now I hurt, but my friend is bringing her little boy to come see me in about 20 mins so that'll cheer me up!

Hope you're all well, i see the conversation has gone back to bottom burps, I never trumped in front of OH before I was pregnant but now I'm a full on parp machine....how lovely..

I think you can do it online here Go on, do it now

I'm still confused by all this tax credit malarky - I'll have to try and get my head round it one day, but not yet

Thanks I'm getting there - I have a tab open about it

I kinda get what to do with tax credits but don't ever ask me how or why they work it coz I can't see any rhyme or reason to it

I spent the morning tidying up my DD's bedroom. In the course of it I discovered lots of newborn baby clothes. I'd remembered vaguely that I'd put the best of our used newborn clothes in her room as they fit her dolls perfectly, but in fact although she likes to cuddle the dolls and wheel them in the pram, she's never been interested in dressing and redressing them, so the clothes have been virtually untouched in the 5 years they've been there. So much so that I am sure she won't even notice if they go.

So I have 10 beautiful little newborn outfits, all full of memories just about to come out of my wm and blow in the sunshine on my washing line, and am starting to get my head round the idea that we 4 are soon to be 5... or 6 :eek:

Oh, progress :j

At least you only have to register today. You have until the end of Jan to complete the actual tax return for 08/09 - which shouldn't be to bad as it will only be for Feb-5th April 09

Same here... But my hubby loves it! With his bowel problems he's never particularly fragrant... And Aimee's favourite game is to either wipe her fart on you, or wiff it at you... And she's given off some interesting smells in her time too! I suppose I had to give in and become one of them eventually...

Don't know what's going on with me today, just keep wanting to eat... Haven't been able to eat much the past week or so... Been having tiny meals and things... But today I just keep craving random things!

No Probs, will you give me a kick up the bum to finish my spreadsheet for the jobs I have completed. I know I don't need it until Jan, but I would like to get things sorted before bubba arrives - Oh and I need to start and keep up to date a new on for 09/10 earnings Oops!

Any good? I just have a pile of paper for my jobs so really need to get a spreadsheet goin too - its hard work!

on the bright side I've already earned £23 worth of points on consumer pulse so only £150 to go until I can afford a new dyson

oh and I got a letter today telling my I'll get my HiPG within 7days - bit late seeing as I've already got it but hey ho!
