  • My second attempt at posting:p

    Debt busting is always two steps forward and one back. I always feel as if its a constant battle. OH announced tonight after dropping hints for the last few weeks that he wants to get a new TV for the kitchen (nothing wrong with the old one but hey what would I know I'm a girl!). We'll see but I've told me any TV bought will be funded from next months DF.

    I'm off to search out the new diary and subscribe - lots of support heading your way

  • Another second attempt at posting - is there something in the air tonight?

    Glad to hear that that the DS's are improving. What with the snow and sickness you've had a rough time of it. Things can only improve.

    OMG just went into the kitchen for a wine topup and OH has tapped a piece of paper on the wall of the size and in the position of where he wants a telly to go :rotfl:Full marks for trying is what I say :p

    Snow is slowly disappearing here although DS1's snow man is still standing :D
