    Hey starnac, great news on the overdraft :beer:. Payday today for me too. I'm making the most of it as I don't have many left.... have taken inspiration from PAID and resigned. :eek: But I have a plan, so it's all good.

    Hi CMD! Que tal?

    Wow, everyone throwing their jobs away, wish I could do that!

    So what's your plan Snow White? Please tell us, could do with some inspiration.

    That sounds reasonable to me. As long as you can actually do the work at home in the evenings and can manage on a 3 day wage then that sounds like a really good option. Babies also seem to settle better with childcare when they are younger. We had a childminder for Seren one day a week from about 6 months to give me a bit of a break (I had PND) and she loved it. We've now put her in nursery 3 afternoons a week and we've had no problems at all with her (even though it's over 12months since she stopped going to the childminder) while a lot of children her age can suffer from seperation anxiety after being with the mother for so long.

    Hi Starnac,

    Am glad it sounds sensible and reasonable. If I do 2 long days I am only anticipating that I would need to do 3-4 hours spread over the rest of the evenings.

    Is that you debt free now? If so you should put yourself up on the debt free roll of honour!

    Ooh, and for the first time since I was 19 I have a positive net worth! So I now have more in savings than in debt. All the debt is at 0% until next September.

    Doing a car boot at the weekend (my first). I'm a bit nervous, am trying to channel the inner Del Boy but feeling more like Rodney. There'll be 3 of us though.

    Yay - well done on being debt free :)

    And double well done on resigning from a job you don't like. What are you going to do? Sounds like you are going to do something that you love. Exciting times ahead for you!
