Hi Dotty,
Yours was the first post I checked this morning as I was hoping you'd speak to him last night. I could see from the last page posts that you did it and I've trawled through to find the moment you posted it on here. I'm so pleased for you (I got tears in my eyes reading your message .... how pathetic am I???) but I know what a burden you will feel has been lifted from you.
You've still got to sort it out but at least with OH supporting and sharing it with you it will be so much easier to do. Well done!!! :T :T :T

I'm so glad it went ok - I know my OH was a bundle of nerves when I found out. That said, we still have bad days (even so close to clear) because it feels like we've been going at it for so long and so haven't had any spare money. At least he's said you can work on it together - and funny how he kind of knew but didn't say anything.
Good luck!Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 002 :rotfl:0 -

I've just read all your posts and think you are doing a great job. Well done for telling your DH, I'm glad it went well, I'm sure the two of you will get there in the end.
In the meantime, make sure you have a nice day off tomorrow for Mothering Sunday, let the kids pamper you a bit.
All the best.0 -
