    I know how you feel.

    I've always worried about the slightest bit of debt so to get this far in is very stressful - then there are always other things around each corner.

    How's your business doing?

    I was just going to say eBay! Sounds like you're exploring every opportunity so good luck! :T

    Every business has it's ups and downs so try not to worry if you are doing well generally?

    what is your website or eBay user name as I'd like to take a look ;)

    as you work from home for the majority of your time, would it be a good idea to take al little part time job, even if its just mornings in a drs surgery or a couple of weeks worth of temping ot something , jsut to get you onto an even keel?

    I think men generally worry less than women - but also they don't show it either. He's prob just keeping calm to support you?

    Will have a look at your stuff, thanks :)
