Look forward to seeing you finish the last hurdle
As for TTC It took me and my ex well into year 3 of trying (we was too "young" for any help from the doctor etc) in the end I was so fed up of being so annoyed and upset everything single month I sat down and said I give up. I can't do it every month. Anyway we booked a 5 day break went away and the following month I had my BFP on what would have been month 33ttc... It does happenxx

Thank you so much Hiddenidenity - it's refreshing to hear that it does happen, even if it takes some time getting there.xx

Morning,
Hope everyone is well.
Thank goodness it's Friday! :j Lovely weekend ahead, dinner with friends this evening, sat sees us at fireworks display and sun roast beef at the inlaws
I've been very MSE and put myself down to work overtime both Sat and Sun morning. I'm trying to find a healthy balance so chosing to work the mornings and then that leaves me the rest of each day to spend with hubby and doing things. I think that is fair? On weekends that hubby is working and I have no plans i'll probably work a little later into the afternoons.
Money is surprisingly OK at the moment - not sure how but i'm nicely in credit with just two weeks until payday. Not that I am ever in debit as remvoed my overdraft facility many years ago. I am determined never to owe a penny again apart from mortgage.
I really can't wait until this last bit of debts are cleared - it'll see the Choc household a whooping 1000 - 1200 per month better off!!!!! I can't imagine us having that amount of extra money each month on top of what we normally have....it's going to be mad but very nice. Although I do intend on using it wisely but also it'll help us ease a little. Have to say though, it's depressing knowing that I am paying/saving this much towards debts each month....if only there weren't such a thing as interest....well in respect of debts that is
Nothing else to report here. Crazy busy with work and trying to keep on top of the house so that we have nothing to do (housework wise) over the weekend. Almost there!
Choc xx
