Why do I feel like a naughty teenager who's stayed out all night and now has to face her Mum the next morning??
I'm sorry for abandoning you all but that wierd thing called living has suddenly re-entered my life and I'm loving it All is good here, I got back yesterday from a short break in Dublin with Mr S, it was fabulous and involved me faing my biggest fear and getting on an aeroplane :eek: I managed it, didnt like it but was very proud of myself for doing so 
Anyway, Mr S is moving in this weekend :j :j Things are going really well, it all feels a bit surreal but I'm loving it, who knows where this will go but right now life is great and its been a very long time since I could say that
I do need to keep a very tight rein on the money, I will lose a lot of tax credits due to not getting single parent allowance anymore, and also extra council tax etc, but I don't care, you only get one shot at this life hey?!
Anyway, I will try and get on here more often again xxMortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000
