  • Hugs, Michelle, you are nearly there.

    I wondered how you were doing, aren't you coming off your medication?
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x
  • cha, you are doing brilliantly and don't you forget it!

    I was starting to lower my medication last year, then dad had his accident and I knew I wouldn't cope, am now taking 10mg per day, which keeps me on an even keel (most of the time) and to be honest if I have to stay on it forever I'm past caring what others think! I really struggled when we were having work done on the house, and don't forget I don't have to think of kids like you do.

    Big hugs and big thumbs up to you!

  • We kind of have a plan in place. We need to decorate the hall, stairs and landing, buy new curtain and pole for the landing, and have a damn good clean of the whole house ready for the kitchen to be done in October. By christmas i should be sat in a really lovely house. :D

    Now thats positive thinking - well done!

    I think i am feeling better because others have said they felt like this when they have had work done.

    This is sooooo true too.....

    Glad you're feeling happy today:)
  • OMG, its cheaper to go to Vegas..not very child friendly though!;)

    Hmm isn't your 40th an awfully long way off yet??:eek:

    We are having our cavity walls done on Tuesday, it is costing us £179, thats including the higher of a cherry pickers so they can get over the garage. This is for a three bed detached.

    Have a great sleep.

    . One of my friends was really shocked when she learned that i am a bit of a binger. DH doesn't even know the full extent of it.

    Hmm - I'm a secret eater - I can happily(well, you know what I mean) binge on stuff and hide the packets - I know it's wrong... Argh!

    Hopefully the bathroom will come together this week!

    I have also set my heart on going to stay in one of the new luxury treehouses at centre parcs. I just worked out that it would cost about £1900 for a 4 night break next May. I need to keep dreaming i think. DH says we could if it was something special like my 40th birthday. :rotfl:Even more motivation to keep overpaying on the mortgage so i can afford to do it. :D

    :eek: WOW that is a shocking price!! You have 9 years to save for it and you could be mortgage free then :) That is an awful lot of money for just a few days!

    Glad you are feeling like you are making progress more in the last few days. I will have a lot of baby weight to loose and I am not looking forward to being strict with myself, you are doing really well to even think about it with all thats going on.
