    Thanks both, we got through ok. Verbatim, I don't ever think I'll catch up on my sleep :(.

    Anyway, enough self pity! Today has been fine. Took boys to get their feet measured as DS2 had been complaining, but neither of them have grown so the shoes can last a bit longer :T. Had to leave DH and boys alone while I went to work as MiL had plans and my Mum was working. Thankfully all was well. It's a wonder I'm not grey with all the worrying!

    Happy New Year Lucky. Sorry that you are a bit on tenterhooks with OH at the moment. But yeah to the no shoes bill. I am just going through the pain of new uniform so I am wincing alongside you.

    Hi all,

    NSD today :j. Haven't actually been anywhere apart from dropping DS2 off at a friend's house for a birthday party and then picking him back up again. Other than that I've done a bit of ironing, decluttering, helping with homework, entering competitions and cooking!

    DH has been ok today apart from a sharp stabbing pain in his head which comes and goes.

    Thanks Brizzle and Pooh, hope you are both well Xx

    First of the month again! Debt calculations sit at £1970 with 0% deals running out at end of June and beginning of August. Will have to get my thinking cap on!

    6 NSDs in January. Will aim for more in Feb. Today won't be one though as I'm collecting my Grandma's birthday present later :A.

    Hi lucky - Glad that you are staying so positive.

    With the 0% coming to and end do you have a B/card? if so you can transfer money and perhaps get a 0% on that? Its what my DH has been offered by them and I said we can pay off the outstanding balance and then only pay a 2.9% fee with 0 for 18 months! Good idea if you are running out of cards to try xx
