    Awww, lovely! Erm, I sent you a pm about blogging before I'd seen your reply up there, sorry!

    Loving the organisation, wish I was at that level, but I'm definitely not :rotfl: there again, you have a *lot* of calls on your time.

    Go for it, DT!

    DT - you've accomplished so much and as always your motivation continues to kick my butt into doing things when I'm dithering :o.

    Wishing you luck with new endevours & all the best for 2012 :A

  • Well so far today I have sorted out my car insurance renewal had to do a few tweaks to it but couldn't beat the renewal quote so for the second year running I am sticking with the same insurance company which is a bit of a record for me :)

    Have also had a look at some more blogs some were way over my head and would take far more time than I am prepared to give to blogging I need to spend the time making money not making a fancy blog I know the two are not incompatible but I think I will make more money trading than writing about it :D but a kind person on her you know who you are :kisses3: has pointed me to their blog which seems much more doable just need to find a name now that hasn't already been taken :D

    Updated my Olympic challenge just a whisker short of the 75% mark but only minimum payment made this month but to get through Christmas and twins 21st birthdays without increasing CC debt is good enough for me :T

    :D:D:D


    I was just on the phone to my insurer too! Fences aren't ever covered :( but the waterproof coverings of shed roofs are, apparently :)

    The name thing for blogs is harder than you'd think, isn't it!
