    Hey Sarah, I just caught up on your diary after ages - you are so determined! Go you!

    I can't believe how much you found in those change jars (mine never get above about 42p). Glad your dad is OK and that things are definitely moving in the right direction for you.

  • few, I was having a minor panick then. When you said you drove a banger at the meet and then posted that i though a) you had a better car b) you have won the lotto ir 3) it was a typo. Thank heavens it was a typo :rotfl: not that i dont want you to win the lottery ~ but you get my drift. Hope you have a bit left then. I think keeping the bit left in the savings account is a good idea and then what would have went into that account pay off the debt untill you have covered the amount in the savings iyswim. then start saving again :)

    So glad C is keeping you on your toes. Awww a ball pit, I used to love them when I was smaller. How is he doing regrding his colds now? anymore since the last one?

    Yep we dont 'see' each other like we used to. I am fine hun, have a week off this week and its doing me good what with the weather too :) Done a lot of crafting and painted mums room, oh and I am wii fitted out :rotfl: Money wise going well... cant wait for payday though and start my 1/3rds month :rotfl:

    Take care hun and keep posting, you are doing a great job :A

    Hello pap! I haven't seen you for ages! I'm trying to cut down the time I spend on here, which means I'm missing a lot of old friends. Hope you are well?

    He's always got a runny nose, but I think that is just from nursery.... he has picked up another ear infection though, which is fun!

    Sarah, ewww not nice. But maybe as you say its a nursey thing. Another ear infection... I hope all these make him have a super effective immune system when he is older, bless him. Take care sarah and dont work too hard :A

    Hope so, I think I was the same as a kid, and I have quite a strong stomach and good imune system, so hopefully he'll take after Mummy!
