  • Yay she's back !
    40sm I drift away from MSE occasionally, doubles the motivation on my return.
    Thanks for positive vibes :)

    You are welcome. Did the positive vibes help with the interview ?
  • Is it getting ANY better - seems like you have had that for an age, bet it seems a lot longer to you!:o

    Try leaving a night - then you can hobble a bit before they notice!:D

    It is MUCH better , thanks. It is 10 WEEKS now :eek: so does seem like an age . As for leaving.... I may not be able to run yet ( never could really) but can drive fairly quickly:rotfl:. Hope you are feeling better:)

    LOL 40SM does a Thelma and Louise - except stop at the cliff edge!

    10 weeks - OMG you must be getting totally peeved off.

    Aren't you doing well over a 1/6th of the £6k paid off - well done! And still six months to go

    What date is your b/day in March - mine is 20th
    LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
    (CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
    Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    Mrs R
    I'll second that, life is so much easier when they are a little more independent, plus we enjoy all being together for the family stuff.

    (The squabbles are still pathetic though, don't last as long, but the subject matter is laughable..)
