    Totally with you on the child/cat substitute thing, when our old one died a year ago we lasted 3 weeks before we got new kittens. They are so our babies and yes we talk to them in exactly the same way as you guys glad I'm not the only one. Saw a T-shirt yesterday "got rid of the kids the cat was allergic" I think that would sum me up.

    Well done on upping the mortgage payments its so exciting I really miss that building up savings is just not the same.

    I have a plan! Why don't you pay off my mortgage instead of saving, that way you get the same buzz and I get to pay off earlier:rotfl:

    I am so tired tonight, I haven't been turning off the computer until late since hubby went away and suddenly it seems to have caught up with me:(

    Really, really must have an early night tonight.

    Baaaaaaaaaaa

  • I am going to bed in a minute..honest gov:p

    Cannot belive I forgot to tell you all, I have been so brave, had a filling today, I am the worst dental patient that ever lived so this is a huge achievement for me.:j

    Spoke to hubby earlier, he sounds so fed up, said he was missing me:o I didn't like to tell him I was enjoying my week alone.......I don't think he would understand, I am enjoying it because I know he is coming back on Friday and I am just doing as I please, pootling around, having long lazy baths (not that I couldn't so that when he was around however you just dont't...do you?

    Picked up the dog from his sleep over at grandmas, he wansn't that bothered to see me....however the cat was even less bothered to see him!

  • I am also saying i will have an earlier night, so i must log off soon. Well done on the filling.

    You should treat yourself to long baths whenever you nana. Your DH wouldn't mind.

    One of the things that i do like when DH is away is the quiet. he sits with the telly blaring out stuff i have no interest in mostly. It's nice to be able to think in peace sometimes.
