    I don't wear PJ's, OH hates it when aunt flo comes as I wear underwear, and he doesn't like not being able to have skin to skin contant (not TMI is it?)

    Also, aunt flo is due and I'm not happy, instead of losing weight, I've put it on. Just a vicious cycle right now (I put it on, I feel worse, I feel worse I eat more, I eat more I get bigger...and so the cycle continues)

    Another contrary little madam on the no like pj's brigade!

    and no elfen, never TMI on this thread!

    Have you thought about taking it off the market for a while dancingfairy?

    Linda - we're renting and love the house but our LL is selling from under us. Grrrr - hence why it is so stressful - it's not even our house to sell.

    Hey just thought I'd pop in and say hello.

    I'm new to the boards but think the debt-free forum is the place for me. I'm clearing 5K from a CC and after that it's just the student loan to go which I intend to pay back slowly :)
    Hi Pir :hello: You dropping in for a cuppa and a biscuit today then?
    Hope the debt busting is going well.

    definitely a madhouse - not sure why we are on the topic of pjamas today - not very debtbusting or hardcore is it. :rotfl:

    Hey all,

    Tea and biscuit sounds good to me. I have to say I'm a loungewear fan. Loungewear is one step above PJs, they don't look so much like PJs which is great if someone calls in unexpectedly. I have to admit I'm in my loungewear today as I'm one of those lucky people who can work from home occasionally. Roll out of bed take the 15 second stroll to the office, it's great :)

    5K is getting down slowly. Biggest step was to stop it increasing. Last few months the debt started to stagnate around 5K which was a good sign and now it's going down. Still refusing to pay off my student debt any quicker than necessary.

    Im sure he won't think it odd...why don't you just ask for it ;)

    Becky very nice undies but when I say Pj's I mean for lounging around the house, cooking tea and doing homework, bed/bathtime with DD....think something like that might be a bit odd for me to do the cooking in...and dangerous ;). I don't generally wear the Pj's to bed just for being comfortable in IYSWIM
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...
