    My new bloky is still here. Guess he is not new anymore!

    My old cow bag manager is now not coming back until the end of sept as they forgot they had to give my new manager 3 months notice. stupid !!!!!!s!!

    All is well with me.

    I have booked to go to singapore in October for 2 and a half weeks will also be going to borneo while we are there. very exciting.

    Hiya ladies, how are we all?

    I am good, can't believe it is August already! Been with my fella nearly 5 months now and at my new job nearly 2!

    I am in a bit of debt now though that I need to clear and get the savings back on track.

    I miss the days of us doing qype deals etc! :p

    She is due in November I think :)

    I wish I had the time to do more MSE stuff but life keeps getting in the way! I have been doing my own Sealed Pot again though too as my old job gave me a Terramundi when I left so putting £2 coins in that, about as MSE as I am these days!

    Hello :)

    I am good, still with my fella too, 6 months now :)

    Liking the new job lots though hours are long, Jen I do a 50hour week now!!!

    Need to try get my butt in gear on driving lessons but quit again as wasn't liking it, not sure I ever will...........but as I work in the car industry I may struggle not driving ever :o

    A few things I wish i could snap my fingers on, like losing weight as its crept up since been with Simon and the driving thing, oh and being able to move in with Simon but as he has kids thats a very very long process, getting on ok with them though.

    oh Dawn that is so exciting. Does he live a long way from you? I am so glad it is going so well.

    My bloke has 2 kids and they live with him so it is going very slowly which is not a bad thing i guess

    Hello anyone out there?

    I hope you are all well and out of debt so not needing this place!

    I wonder if we can get a new thread going for 2011 though? 2010 has been a good year for me but I still have some life changes I want and might need a career change too so need MSE to get back on track!
