    It was a reading Pooky. It was just so frustrating to see a bill go up. Just before I went on holiday, I discovered the outside tap has been leaking. I guess it might have been from a frozen pipe in the winter so over 4 months of it gently running.......probably didn't help matters......

    Hugs BB, its carp when work is carp because its such a huge huge part of our lives. Was in school this afternoon and for the first time since ive been going in I stood there and thought, what am I doing here, would rather be at home curled up on the sofa...just so couldn't be bothered with it and wonder if its really really what I want to do long term...god Im rubbish at having a career and sticking to it, maybe im destined to be in rubbish paid, unskilled jobs. R is talking again about setting up his own business for us...

    Elfen-take it from someone who learnt the hard way-if you start to hurt, give it a rest for a few days....I didn't and then had an enforced month of resting my knee....
    Debt-free...and staying that way...
