Hi all

CMD - glad you are enjoying the new flat

CAFCgirl - good luck with the applications

PAID how is the new job going?

My job seems to be going quite well so far - it takes me about 75 mins each way but I am coping okay at the mo. Kids are at MILs so quiet and restful at home!

Well another £300 paid off my debts as OH's expenses have come through. We need to claim his relocation money as well, although that will go straight back into a small savings buffer we have, and won't impact on any debts. Need to nag him to send away for the wages from the part time job he had. Also need to nag him to sort out his back tax. He is a nightmare to try to get to do anything :mad:

Good for you

I have my Virgin @ 0% until June 2010 but have £2900 on it so need to get rid of that amount before then.

no payments for me til friday (pay day) but i should have my o/d paid off by then. i have been working hard so we'll see how it looks on friday.

feeling a bit pants today. got a headache, sore throat and am achey. hope i'm not coming down with anything

hi starnac - if you add a temperature to the mix you could have swine flu so keep an eye on it! I've had a sore throat this week but took nurofen straightaway and went to work anyway. OH just used lemsip for the first day and came home ill -once he started using nurofen he found it made a difference too so he in theory is going back to work today!

Hope your feeling okay today Starnac

OH's payslip came today. I was so excited as he hasn't been paid (properly) in 2 years! Not sure if it will make too much dent in my listed debts on here as I have a store card to pay off, then money towards the rent, and then savings towards the baby. I applied for an ISA for OH today and when he can root out my file box (from the junk in the spare room) I will apply for one myself.

I am hoping that when the baby comes along we won't have to dip into our savings too much, although it is nice to have a buffer so I don't have to worry while on Maternity leave.

How is everyone else today?

I'm unhappy and bored today. Not trying to bring anyone down, but just feeling bit bleugh.

Supposed to go and see a film tonight with bf if we can find one that we want to see. Hopefully that'll improve my mood.

CAFCGirl
