    Awww thats terrible. My aunt and uncle just got a divorce after 26 years of marriage. It was really random. And very upleasant.

    I hope your cousins seperation is on much better terms.

    I'm off uni today because I'm ill, so I suppose I should set about actually getting some work done! I have kinda done some so thats no so bad.

    As long as I stay near a toilet I'm fine (too much info I know). Not confident enough to move away from said toilet for the commute to uni, or for the lessons for that matter.

    But aside from that I'm ok. So I'm managing to get various bits and bobs done. Just a bit tired, so an early night is in store I think.

    Sounds like a very good move! Sleep normally does the trick for me.

    Woo hoo! I'm married now. Everything is paid up for wedding etc. So I can FINALLY start working on my house and my debts.

    Well once honeymoon is over anyway....I'll stay worrying about enjoying myself for now. Think about the money etc when I get back! Yey!

    I'm quite excited that now everything is over I can start thinking about my finances again. Should be getting the mortgage statement soon too so we can look at that and reassess where we are at.

    The great job hunt starts in January as well....yawn. Thats not gonna be fun. But if we want to start sorting the house and maybe doing some mortgage overpayments we need to know I have a job first for September.

    I gotta say though being the ulitmate newlywed. I love it, and highly recommend it! It's ace.

    I'm really pleased for you. I have some very smug married friends and they recommend it to.

    Job hunting will be fun. Just make sure you start in Jan as I know they jobs get snapped up.
