    OK - better I guess than they've have been for a while. Just drove past my house today - the "For Sale" board is up now. I've also found a website which shows rentals, and on a map too - so that'll help me find where I want to live.

    I don't want to live near here, which is a shame because that's where I work... :rolleyes:

    Movins stressful enough, even under the best circumstances. I can vouch for that- which reminds me to call my EA. As some therepeutic bod ( really should remember this- I did study it for like a year!) said something like " all change is good change, it opens new ways of thinking" or whatever. Hopefully someone somewhere will gain some comfort from my perfect trascription of what is a seminal work :cool: no wonder I failed the course :rotfl:

    Money was from the unison hardship fund. 40 quid subsistence per week. Hardly gonna set the world on fire but keep the wolf from the door for another 30 days. :rolleyes:

    Hi Lynz

    Glad to hear all the good news about the flat price and this possible new job! I also think you should investigate the CAB not the cab job - you'd be fantastic! Good luck with the health stuff, fingers crossed from me that it all goes smoothly from now on....

    Studying full time and working full time :eek: ! I study part time and work part time and I'm frazzled... what's this flyladying? I must go to o/s and have a look...

    Just wanted to say that even though things are a bit tight at the minute the long view is really good - all debts paid off, extra cash from the house, fiance job all good, and hopefully hopefully fixing the health problems for good :)

(Thats meant as a compliment, btw!)I dont know how the hell you do it, but one things for sure, you are one special lady. Just my thoughts, hope you dont mind!

    ahaha not always ;) ZTD will tell you or if you can me mithered to trawl back a few pages, I havent always looked on the sunny side ;)

    But Ive got all I need, (most of) my health, a wonderful and generous family and a fantastic fiancee :j theres always food on the table and something to get excited about so I have what I need. All the stuff I used to think was important ( holidays, career, M&S food, clothes :rolleyes:) isnt really as long as you have the baisc needs in life met.

    And I bought a breadmaker last week and its made me unbelievably happy :T LOL

    Is it the "kneading" cycle that hits the spot? You must be pleased with small things - most other women stick with their washing machine's "spin" cycle. ;):D
