    Sharronej – fab to hear from you and you’re doing so well! How are you feeling now about everything? Is DH starting to help you? Are you still having to support your daughter?

    Sorry MfOu hardly get the chance to come online anymore :( No, he hasn't been helping in fact it's just been the same old argument up to this week when I'm hoping I've managed to get through to him a little bit.....we'll see I'm not holding my breath lol

    I have 'ring fenced' the household accounts and debt payments to ensure that no matter what I can keep up afloat (this only works though if I can keep the level of work that I have).

    Hope you're all doing well, I'll update figures when this months payments have gone out - still not managed any overpayments but we have paid cash for our soon to be Grandaughters pram and cot which was twelve hundred pounds:eek:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hello all!

    Just a quickie from me. The items we listed on ebay made a total of £195 - £16 each for the lots of stamps and £163 for the SAD blue-light :)

    No debt payments from me yet but it's payday on Friday.

    Oh, and the new bed came yesterday - had a fab night's sleep!
  • Those of you who mentioned it... circle is actually a national thing so there may be one near you ;) worth a look.

    Everyone seems to be doing so well on debt busting/losing weight!! I'm doing ok, keeping level-ish and really trying not to spend money but keep having f**k it moments and spending anyway. Grr.

    I had a spendy f**k it weekend. :o:o I ordered a £60 pair of boots, bought an £80 coat and spent £60 on jewellery I don't need ( but its lovely). Today I ordered a window cleaner thing from Groupun. somebody slap me please!

    We were supposed to be going to Cornwall to see my mum, but DH felt fluey & we didn't want to give her germs. My sis has called today to say she thinks mum is going downhill - they are seeing the oncologist tomorrow so I'm so scared at what will be said.:cry:

    *hugs* to you Ruthy :(

    Havent been on much this weekend as ive been feeling so poorly, Miss Lily had to miss her friends birthday party as I just couldnt get her there and really didnt want to spread my dodgy tummy germs to a load of 4 and 5 year olds anyway, but oh did she cry as she had been looking forward to it for weeks :(
    Still not feeling great but shes got swimming lesson tonight, have told DH he has to come with me just incase and that we have to sit far apart from everyone else as though I think im over the 'giving it to others' stage I still want to minimise the chance of making others ill. I would send him on his own but they are currently renovating the whole building and the mens temporary changing rooms are miles from the pool and with his arthritis I can see the look on his face now :o

  • Hugs to everyone not well, I'm hoping not to get ill again before Christmas.

    Wet n Wild was lots of fun except that the boy slipped getting out of one of the slides and bashed his rib and he's been moaning ever since. Ah well, keep telling him if it's bruised there's nothing he can do except take pain killers.

    Random question for people, does anyone know a good place to buy wool? I have a couple of shops in Newcastle itself but I only go in on football days so was just wondering if anyone had anywhere online.
