Mr and Mrs K's New Journey to a Debt Free Life.

Keep going Alex and one day it'll all fall into place. You may even get a surprise or two when you understand a little clearer what you really want from life. Xxx

Well, another awful night's "sleep" and really quite busy today. :mad:

KJ: Thank you for your support and I hope it's a nice surprise or two.

Hope the elf didn't cause chaos overnight .

Have a good day :beer:.

He caused absolute havoc; involving magical snow and a wild party with his friends from all over the world and that was just the Elf. Well, I had to think of something. :rotfl:

Ahh am liking the Elf stories - my boss is doing that for his kids too

Am also liking a No-Spend Day and more selling - especially because I remember when you wouldn't have pulled yourself out of the "spend-mope" and would have ended up spending more

Well, just keep him away from the credit cards :eek:

Is Little K enjoying the elf?

I might do it with DD next year, but I thought this year she was just a bit young (2yo).

Good news on the ebay sales and no spending Alex. SOunds like your son has one swell dad to do this sort of thing with him - those are the sort of things he will remember when he gets to be a dad himself.

Yes I agree about youth wasted on the young - but you are half way between - so just enjoy it before all the aches and pains set in!!

Cor strewth things move fast on here! Catching up after a manic week involving DCs' schools Xmas activities - this is just a breather before it all starts again tomorrow...:eek:

OK Alex, enough of the "I'm a bad / unworthy person" stuff!
Suggested forfeit for every time you say that on here: Stand on one leg & sing "Jingle Bells" - not the official version but the "Batman smells" one.
Because doing that is as stupid as saying you're a bad person (unless you have a list of terrible crimes you haven't shared)! :cool:

Has the elf unravelled the loo paper roll & wound it all around the house yet, leading to where he's hiding? I'd watch out for that one!

You can do it, Alex!
Virtual hugs.

I love this!!

I think if you tell yourself often enough that you are a bad person you end up beliving it. Can you turn it around - tell yourself you are good and worthy? Or get a list written down of stuff that you are good at and like about yourself e.g. musical skills, imagination with games for Mini K, determination, loyalty, resilience (tiem and again you get a right kicking on here and you're still standing!!), open mindedness (you were open enough to discover other nursery parents are well educated etc - despite your previous prejudices you gave them a chance - that is SUCH a good thing), practical skills (changing stuff on cars and fixing up furniture - impressive stuff), great writing style, sense of humour, cooking abilities.

There, I'm just some randomer off the internet and even I've come up with loads of positive stuff about you. :rotfl:

Write them down and keep them somewhere to refer to when you are having a dark moment. Mayme Mrs K would help you with it as well - I assume she likes something about you to go out with you, get hitched, make a baby and stay hitched - it's pretty hard to force someone to do that stuff!!
