  • So pleased for you well done :-)
    LBM- finally kicked in 16/12/08 @ [strike]£41,862 [/strike] £0.00/ DFD- 24/12/13 :D


  • Thanks everyone :A

    Did post last night but laptop froze :(

    Moneywise I have updated my figure to the true amount. Chances are I will pay most of the car etc but anything OH helps with all the better. I was just stressing myslef over it before. Also new wages will help.

    32 months to go if I have no more meltdowns or dont overpay so all in all if I get my b** in gear I could get that down quicker.

    Mum rang up about Sis and there were looking to move her but didnt say where. Social worker going to see her and then us next week so fingers crossed we can get her closer to home.

    Oh...ref OH it might be Ex again soon. I fine either way I just need to know what he wants and that hes ok.

    Hi Dizzy hows your hols going?

    Hi KP. Hols going well. Have done lots in the garden, painted two wooden slatted chairs we were going to get rid of, but I fixed them up, painted them a meditteranean blue and will use them as planters in a hidey part of the garden :)
    Also knitted two mug hugs which I must post on the 'knitters thread' and off to watch 'Arthur' with DD as soon as she's ready.
    I love being at home...who doesn't? :)
    Really I'm so pleased for you with the job KP, must have done your confidence a world of good.
    Enjoy the Easter hols with your little chicks KP

  • Well long post lost grrrrr

    Yes good payrise and good boast in confidence as I will be a senior whereas I feel patronised in my current role. Trying not to spend the payrise though! Really want a tv for bedroom and a console for the kids.

    Couple of expensive days Primark day cost 70 and 35 yesterday on eggs and some groceries.

  • So close to a NSD but Im still happy as I walked to the shop and got some wraps and then some stuff from my flat for dinner so £3.38 instead of £20+ potential spend on Dominoes.

    Busy day so shattered. At the house as OH/EX picking friend up so he was out all day. Invited my Sis and Mum up for the day and also neighbour so about 8 kids in the garden all but 2 over 5 and that was without one of mine! All had good fun although what is about boys liking to be starkers?!!

    Forgot to add in my last post that I have a target to lose 2lb a week up to June so hopfully a dress size before I start my new role. Going ok so far not had too much choc which considering I bought myself an egg is amazing.
