Oooh, fingers crossed for the result you want!
Well done on being strict with the tutoring. Have you found demand has increased recently? I could go full time with the amount of requests I've had.
Take care0 -

Thanks for the well wishes!
Well it was a faint positive!! The nurse would like me to do it again at the end of the week just to get a stronger line. But I am pretty safe to say that it is a very early pregnancy - now my period is 8 days late. I guess I just have to relax and see what happens on Friday.
She said Thursday, but showboating I said I could wait till Friday to test again!
So perhaps all will change again for me this autumn. I see this time now as a time to get all organised and make plenty of money as I can't see me being able to tutor much with 2 LOs, plus I am planning to go part time on returning to work, if its possible.
Good news and the EG household is very happy!15/5/12 Paid off Mortgage 1 (£220k) Bought Dream House:www: Dec 13 - Mortage 2 -£116,508. 15/7/18 Mortgage Free Again :j
