    Congratulations on your impending arrival maybe we should form an expectant aunties club or something? :D I have a serious update that I must remember to record later in relation to the boyfriend so I will write myself a note so as not to forget. :o

    i muat admit that i was shocked to find out i was going to be a great auntie as i'm only 30 next week and my niece is only 18-she lives with her b'f though and they have their own house and jobs. she was 5 mths when she found out, she had no signs at all she was pregnant, i'm only just getting my head around it!!
    as for your boyfriend, have you told your sister asi i imagine she has probaably organised your wedding for you by now so that you only have to turn up on the day!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Perfect sense, and i was only teasing about the invites :rolleyes: although myself and spud can share a car:D
    I am fine with little sleep, i moan a bit and post on night owls thread...keeps me sane.:rotfl:
    It's very nice though to hear your updates.

    I am glad to hear that not about you needing to moan or anything like that if you know what I mean but that it not something else that is causing you not to sleep. :D

    It must ave come as a huge shock for the parents to be as well but I am glad that everything seems to be going so well and that they have you and other supportive family around. :D You are totally right about my sister though and organising things so that when the time comes she will definitely be put in charge of organising everything because she did the organising for one of her friends and had everything planned meticulously down to the tiniest detail and on the day everything ran perfectly and looked totally amazing even although she did it all on the tiniest shoestring budget for them as their wedding present and it was a seriously stylish and classy event despite the budget. :D

    Well it is just the OH snores a lot, and is restless. I have told the tale to so many folk( so one more won't hurt). He is getting treatment for it, and the weird thing is i am in the habit of being wide awake if that makes sense. I read, download lesson plans etc. So is a useful time.

    Woohoo, thrilled to hear about The Big Conversation! So happy for you Ciara, and you're absolutely right to enjoy just being yourself (together with the BF)for the moment. You might be feeling a bit flat about being DF just because until now you've been on a serious focussed DFW mission. Time to start on the next challenge. :D
    And what's all this about not being a perfect person? Are you implying that you're just as ordinary and grumpy as the rest of us?:rotfl: :rotfl:
    Oh, just me then:o

    I started to read this thread 5 hours ago and I have to say - there is a novel here and a best selling one at that!
    Fantastic journey and better than any 'chick flick' I have ever seen!
    Just one thing, in just one post can you agree with everyone else here - you are amazing and you have achieved something quite remarkable (sure you had help but YOU did it, the others could never have done it without you)
    So please, give yourself a big hug and tell yourself just how great you are.

    PS Never considered my student loan as a debt really until reading this - maybe I should have another little look at it
    LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
    (CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
    Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    There is kind of no news yet because it has definitely been agreed that it is definitely something for the long term future and for now we will just concentrate on being happy together and enjoying our time together. :D

    :o Enjoy !:rotfl:

    Hello everybody I hope that you have all had a great weekend in this beautiful weather and are all making good progress with getting debt free. :D I have no real news to update with at all except that I took my boyfriend to meet my parents at the weekend and he still actually wants to know me so it must indeed be love. :rolleyes::rotfl: Oh and I am also now the proud owner of an extremely sparkly ring that I totally adore but not nearly as much as the man that gave me it. :D
