When I asked for luck I didn't mean the bad variety!!!

So glad your OH has hooked up with an old mate.
Great for you both.
Great loss for you :j

Cheers Beanie!

We went to the beach and park today . Love days like that, makes you appreciate what you have and what life is all about. I sound all hippie-ish but I always feel peaceful and calm near the sea, watching the boys skim stones and run away from the waves. It wasn't exactly warm but it was pleasant enough, and it was all free except the ice cream for the boys and DH.

DH is coming down with the cold we all had last week . Hopefully he wont be too bad with it, and more so that it doesn't trigger any seizures. From a very selfish point of view I also hope he doesn't snore tonight .

Will do the monthly debt calculation in the morning I think!

That's brilliant news about Mr Lucky's old mate! It's so nice to hear they've gone running - something positive for once. Do you ever feel you've acquired an extra child to look after? At the moment that's how I feel about Mr SA - it's so hard to have a normal conversation with him. I know how you feel wanting to get things sorted and not hanging around - I'm the same.

I do SA, I really do. I find his mood swings/tantrums very childlike but also he seems to be OTT like a child too and he babbles on and on about stuff sometimes. I worry about leaving him like I'd worry about a child obviously. He'd be devastated to hear me say stuff like that though and that isn't him all the time, it's just a new side of him since the accident.

Today he had to ask what month and year it was when signing for a prescription. He only knew it was the 10th because his watch shows the date. You should see the size of the list I've made of things that have cropped up in the last 7 days incase the DWP appeal is refused again! It's like War and Peace :eek: Xx

Morning, just catching up with you. Huge congrats on the weight loss! 2 and a half stone is phenomenal! :eek: :T

I hope the DWP enjoy reading your version of War and Peace

P.s we've all got colds here too, lots of achy joints with it too! Not nice and I hope you're all much better very soon xxx

Morning DF(w), sorry to hear your household is poorly-sick . Hope you all feel better soon.

DH is still in bed so I'm not sure how he is feeling yet. He didn't keep me awake snoring so that's one positive though! Hoping he is well enough to go out today as it looks gorgeous outside and I fancy taking the boys to Aydon Castle (which Pooh suggested on my diary a year ago and I discovered it again while reading through last week!).

Been up a while with DS2 and he's been glued to Despicable Me2 on dvd, so I've taken advantage of the time to do the monthly debt calculation. I now owe £4785 and I'm officially in the 4's :T. £19k paid off which makes me both ecstatic and sick to my stomach at all that money we could have used for something better. Never again!

I think I am looking at August 2015, but hoping to beat that! We would be so much better off and I could actually start to build savings. I'm so excited :j Xx

Brilliant achievement paying £19k off. Well done! How did the debt come about in the first place Lucky?
