    Evening,
    Spud hunny, I hear ya. things here have been a bit tense tonight-my car is REALLY bad (shouldnt be driving but can't get to work otherwise !!!!!!) and DH needs his for work. He is taking on loads of extra shifts training etc to pay for Florida (he has NEVER had a balance on a card and has now for the first time EVER and is TOTALLY stressing about it) and he hasnt got the time to fix my car and I havent got the money to take it to the garage-catch 22.

    I am getting more Vie parties booked (now have 4 to do before I go away) and that will help but it's just plain CRAP. I can't afford new shoes for the kids, to get my car fixed or anything...it WILL get better. It WILL!

    And Spud-my DMP lasts at least 14 more years and I am out of a job in a week! LOL!!!!!


    We'll be here together hun, plodding on :cool:

    So sorry you're having a tough time too. Vie and CD will take off big style hun, I'm sure of it :D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
