You've climbed a lot?

no I haven't. DH does it occassionally in work so I paid for both of us to go on the taster session they run for fathers day. He loved it x

Hi

Haven't been on here for a while, hope everyone is OK.

Starnac - great news on the house move, hope it all goes smoothly. Will be nice being up the road from your parents, I wish my parents were nearer, they moved to Dorset (from Middlesex) in Nov 2004 when DD1 was 5 months old and it was lovely being able to pop round their and they would look after DD1 while I had a sleep. I'd love to be nearer to them especially now they are getting older, we are 2 hours away so if anything happened we are not nearby.

Nothing much going on here, we remortgaged and borrowed extra to pay off our debts, still have a few grand left so will be working on those after this weekend. Next sale is on on Saturday, my local one starts at 4am so will be leaving home at 3am and hoping the queue isn't too long, am desperate to get some clothes for my girls. It is DD2's birthday party on Saturday too and her birthday is next Tuesday so once they are out of the way I can concentrate on the rest of the debt.

CMD - how is Max? Hope he is doing well. My DD's friends mum just had a baby last Thursday, a little girl, and she is so tiny, she was 7lb 7oz but seems very tiny, she came up the school with her in the puschair one day this week she looked like a little doll. So cute!!!!

Hi Too Much!

Great to see you on here! How did you get on at the Next sale? I had a VIP slot so bought lots on there. Max will be kitted out of the next year

Max is doing very well thanks. He is rolling now and can sit for a few seconds on his own. He is a very smiley, happy boy so I am very lucky. How are your DD's?

Thats great news about releasing mortgage funds. Will you be debt free now?

Hi all how is everyone? I've had a bit of a nightmare over completing on our new house but it's all sorted now and we've been moved in a week now. Off down my sisters this weekend to help her move which is funny as we haven't finished moving our stuff yet!

Getting back into mse ways now again. Been batch cooking and have updated my spreadsheets ready for the big debt busting attack that is planned

what's everyone else been up to?

Hi Starnac,

Congrats on the house move. How does it feel to be settled in your own place again?

All good here - have a mountain to climb re: the debt but am feeling positive about it

starnac

It feels so nice having our own space again. DD has slept in her own room almost every night and is starting to settle down a bit now. She was a bit confused about not living with my parents anymore. She didn't really understand why they didn't live with us anymore but she's starting to settle in now so that's good.

You look like you've already made a good start on those debts CMD

Hey, how's everyone doing with their aims for this year?
I have no idea what mine are anymore if I ever even decided what they should be...
Atm looking for a flat/house with bf and I'd like not to be in my current job come Christmas but I doubt that will happen. Next year though latest.
Hope everyone is doing well. Lets not drop this thread...though it's not quite the same without CAFC. Anyone know how she's getting on?
