    Hi hun

    Sorry to hear you are feeling poorly. Asda have just cancelled my mum's delivery for Thursday, even though its not even bad round here!

    Please don't hang back hun, you are only going on holiday because your making the most of what your situation dictates.

    You have worked and are continuing to work at the debt busting just as hard as the rest of us.

    We miss you x

    Hi Jody

    I dont think/feel anyone thinks you are a fraud like whats already been said you are making the most of your situation and the big thing to remember is that you have come a long way. You've said yourself that you paid the deposit with savings and are going to save the rest and the spending money prior to going!!!!! just think the Jody of a while back would NEVER have used savings to pay as she wouldn't have any to use ;) (hope you didnt take offense to that it's just I want you to see how far you have come!! :o:o).

    May I make a suggestion which may help to make you feel a bit more comfortable/happy. Why don't you start a new diary with a title which is now more appropriate to your new chapter in the DFW journey hun xxx

    Hope you are also feeling better x

  • I think it does too. If I had savings (other than my nearly £40) I would be going on some form of holiday next year! As it stands, I want to drag DS and DH to Fishguard (my grandparents used to live there and it's so pretty) but if I had the ££ I would be on that plane with you xxx

    You are all so sweet! :o

    I've missed you all too! Been suffering with another chest infection and a cold on top since Sunday :(. I even missed my work Xmas party today which I am gutted about. One of my work colleagues is kindly on his way over to give me my secret santa gift and laptop even though he lives miles away!

    Lots to update with and plan out/report on but I think you are right and a new diary might help....will see how far I get with it tonight :D

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D
