    yeah i'm doing good getting the debt slowly down and thinking about a wee holiday for hubby and i for his 40th (think we need a break) had the social worker on the phone today as well...are you back at your old work? what do you fancy doing next?
  • Not sure maybe back to management the moneys good although its not the dream job

    But Then I did that and hated it so no such thing as a dream job!

    good about your debt glad your finally getting somewhere You and hubby sound like you need a wee break

    I've still got a holiday coming we delayed jamacia so I could go away so in the new I'm off not going to have a big summer holiday next year whilst I've been away hubby racked up some cc debt no masses but we need to pay that off before we book anything. Which I usually book about this time if year :(

    Its not a major amount just gutted we resorted to them cause my wages where so poor over there.

    but I'm still happy I know we'll be fine as long as we are sensible.

    Had to back to slimming club put a stone on whilst I was away :eek:
