    Quite right too, you are all safe and that's what matters :D
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    dearie me its been 3 weeks since i updated this. Still no settlement from car :( dragging heels I hate insurance.

    No real update, op on hold because of maternity leave etc. I have toyed with the idea of heading back to work as I miss it but then i think oh no i can't do it and don't. DD was a similar age when I returned to work but dd2 was 8 months. With me being so ill towards the end I guess i will be back at work come november ish

    Could you do the odd few hours or clients? I returned to my training when DD was 5.5 months and it was really hard (esp as was still b/f). Don't rush back though if you don't need to, enjoy the time with all your girls. I am looking forward to maternity leave to spend time with DD as well as have this new baby.
