Everyone is talking babies at work this morning, its making me broody again. Plus the girl who sits next to me, her cousin is a childminder. She is only 20, has no kids of her own, and has 3 kids during the day and 2 more older ones after school and brings in over £40k a year! Apparently shes knackered of an evening though.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Just found out a girl at work is pregnant after literally years of trying. So, so happy for her. Only 5 weeks so early days, and shes very nervous as she miscarried once in the past, but shes so happy too.
Aw that is such wonderful news

I managed to post a review this morning Dinah, was fine then!
40k a year, seriously? You would be pretty knackered though! Is it still what you want to do when you and NIM get your own place?
Good luck with the scan CMD! When is it you get to know the sex? Or are you letting it be a surprise?0 -
Yep its what I want to do Cinny, don't think I would go for so many kids though, maybe 2 in the day and 2 afterschool, be a bit less tired!
I got a review in this morning but now the website just won't open.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Dinah - Just checked and I can't get on the website at all. Was going to do loads of reviews this afternoon too! Hope they sort it, don't want to be writing stuff up to find they don't even have it to review. Like my awesome Polony one
Aw, good luck to your friend Wendz! Must be so exciting.0 -
Weighed in this morning, still at 10st7 so never quite made the stone (I blame the fried breakfast I had at the hotel yesterday - can't turn down free food - I did LOOK at the museli, promise!
) - am going for the 2 stone overall by Christmas.
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 10st 7
Target: 9st 6
BMI: 20.5
Well done on making the stone Dinah!
Well I had banned myself from MSE today so I could steam ahead with work, but everything's so infuriating and I can't seem to finish any tasks what with one thing and another so I'm having a break!
The only thing I can remember from while I was away was Cinny changing career then changing back again! I think if you want to do the accountance course(s?) and they'll pay then definitely stay ... would you consider getting a part time Christmas job before the course starts to bring a bit of extra money in/get some discounted pressies/build your confidence a bit?
Great news about your colleague Dinah, hope all goes well for her, and good luck for later CMD - will you find out 'what' it is??
Nothing to report here really, work really frustratingHad about four hours sleep last night. Have decided to try and de-clutter my life by Christmas, ahead of the proposed moving in with OH next year. I'm currently living in what was my childhood room with everything I've ever accumulated, and I'm an only child so I have a lot of stuff. I've divided my room into 9 areas to be tackled, plus all the general stuff of mine floating around the house, so if I can do one area a week that'll take me to mid-December.
Sigh, best get back to these effing malfunctioning online communities...Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
What you going to do with the clutter once its been divided? Could be a very nice moving out fund...
Grief you have a very low bmi already Tete!
My throat is so sore today all I feel like is yoghurt or ice-cream. As I don't have ice cream in my packed lunch I could be about to have a very low cal day.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008
