any excuse to get out of it:rotfl::rotfl: Hugs to about the TC - I've been there!! I still owe them £1200 - for their mistake over paying me!! I know you get used to that money and I know how hard it is when it's taken away! I'm sure you will manage.
General question for you all - how do you motivate yourself!! Not just for MSe stuff but in general. I actually sat and looked at the mountain of ironing last night but still couldn't get my !!! off the sofa!!
Am going to do it tonight!!! Have to!
I'm terrible for putting the ironing in a big laundry basket and stuffing it in the cupboard under the stairsthen I whinge like hell when I have a basket the size of mount everest to iron lol
Thanks Green, got an email today to go for a medical for the role, so it's looking like I passed the interview stage but they don't offer you anything until you've passed a medical. At least I've heard something now. :j
Millie sounds like she's being a scamp again. :rotfl:
Thats great news sashy :T am sure you will pass the medical!!! Good luck
As for Millie - hmmm she's still not right!she's started eating again but she's throwing a lot of it back up 10 mins later! Don't know if its the heat or what! Oh and she's started going in the garden and standing and howling like a wolf! don't know whats brought it on but at first it was quite funny
now I'm getting worried! She's still full of energy tho, running about acting like an idiot!! She turned one last Saturday, wonder if that has anything to do with it! If she's not right in a few days will take her to the [STRIKE]rip off[/STRIKE] vets

Morning all
Got the insurance money into my bank account this morning for Amber's op last month! A £100 less than what I was expecting tho :mad: Apparently they don't include the initial vet consultation even tho it was £37, bloody cheek! But it's better than nothing I guess.;)
I won't be padding it as it's going towards DS4's holiday spending moneyIt's his school prom tonight!!
He has to wear a suit, shirt and tie! They must think parents are made of money! Had to buy him new shoes to go with the suit as well.

Thanks Green.
Hmm, that's strange about Millie. One of my cats (weirdly enough also called Millie!) does the eating than throwing up again after 10 mins thing and it's usually when she's eaten too fast.
At least she's still running about so there can't be too much wrong with her. Hope she's ok and you don't have to take her to the vet.
Don't talk to me about pet insurance - the first time we needed to use it for one of our older girls they refused to pay because they didn't cover dental. :mad: Our fault for not reading the policy properly I suppose but we just assumed dental would be included. Cancelled that policy after we had to pay the £400 :eek: bill ourselves. Our poor girl was left with four teeth.They were all rotting when we got her ( a couple of months earlier) and it was the bad breath that made us take her to the vet in the first place.

I'm not sure I want there to be a way around it. I've been thinking about it today and maybe it's time to stop relying on tax credits to get us out of the mess we created. I'll get less than what we're used to but it's not such a bad thing really...they would have stopped giving us alot eventually so why not make it sooner rather than later?
I think I've seen the light...it's not HMRC responsibility to pay our debt
Whilst I realise that TCs are a godsend for some people, I find your attitude a refreshing breeze, angelic.

Morning all.
Got some money owed to em by a friend today so £25 to MINt and £1.76 towards halicrap so PAD £26.76.
General question for you all - how do you motivate yourself!! Not just for MSe stuff but in general. I actually sat and looked at the mountain of ironing last night but still couldn't get my !!! off the sofa!!
Am going to do it tonight!!! Have to!
Argh..motivation!! I am having a problem with this lately and don't really have any tips apart from just grabbing the first piece of ironing/washing up/weeds and just doing it. Once I've started it's easier to carry on...if that makes sense?
I currently desperately need to tidy our bedroom after a shopping weekend with my folks (clothes are bl00dy everywhere!) and I know that we always feel better when we've feng shui-ed it (or 'fenged' it as we usually say), so that's some incentive.Mortgage-Free WannabeMortgage at start [20/6/12]: £151,800/MFD Jun 2035 (age 65)Mortgage now [5/11/14]: £139,212.14/MFD Oct 2029 (age 59)Personal Library 2014:starmod: Read in 2014: 57/60 :starmod: In Progress: 2 :starmod: Books In: 94 :starmod: Books Out: 12 :starmod: TBR: 847 :starmod:0 -
