you know when all you lovely people give advice...

I wish I had a best friend who was more financially organised, where in America are you planning to go?

I have tones of beanies, mostly TY and Andrex puppies. Some are worth a bit though

Pap, America will be fab I'm sure - it's great to travel and see the world, especially if you are not hammering your credit card in order to do it.

You put me to shame, I didn't even make my bed properly today in my defence it's because a cat was on it and I didn't want to disturb him

Pap I remember reading some of your posts when you were thinking of moving out/getting fed up at home. With all that space I'd stay put for as long as possible, really, at least when things get a bit much you have a great space you can go to that's just yours and has all your things in it without feeling cramped/oppressive. I would've killed to have that when I lived at home - and that's despite being very happy there! (well, you know, mostly...)

oh its not made everyday, if i am running late its a mess

dont worry i have decided i need to get my carrer sorted and get out more before i move out. Yes it would be great to have my own place but thats 80% of my wages and thats just silly. I feel like i have a 'life' now and i am happy ish here, but at least i know (as you have said) once i close my door this is my own space and now its perfect. There is now nothing i want to make the room better. The carpets dont match but i dont care (it was a seperated room) and i havent got a top range lcd tv but its my little place plus for approx £140 per month including 75% of my food, lifts, banking taken to the bank, ebay postage sent, all bills and some of my laundary done i cant say fair than that... i must say mum is 'due' a meal :rotfl:
