    Hi guys, :wave:

    Just a quick but depressing update. My boss shut up shop today and let me go. He says the mortgage broking business ain't what it used to be.

    I get paid until the end of the month though, but I guess I'd better get writing that new SOA to see how we're doing. :rolleyes: :o

    Sorry to be be a grumpy pants but thre's no happy sparkly way to give that news really. :D :rolleyes:

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    Oh Jacks! I'm so sorry .... you're right, there's no way to be sparkly about that. Take a deep breath, have a cup of tea, and get going when you can with the SOA. Thank the heavens you're already DF.

    Thanks honeys, :A

    Hubby's at college tonight soI'm going to finish what I'm doing on eBay, then work out what we've got going out in relation to what we've got coming in and see how the land lies.

    Then I'm going to write a big list of things to be thankful for to stop myself from wallowing too much and on the very top of it will be being debt free.

    (Closely followed by DFWs :D !)

    Cheers my lovelies,

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    Thats so **you**! Thats lovely. Still, take care of yourself too, even on my Positive Thinking course last week, they were saying that you need to be able to feel your feelings.

    Lots of hugs.

    hugs me lovely...do you have insurance for these eventualities (I dont!!)...regardless as others have said if anyone can get through this you can and we all know that you will continue in the same relentless spirit that got you where you are now so thinking of you as you trawl for jobs...hope you looks at the gorgeous Fergus on me diary...very honored that Weezl put him on my diary for his first official appearance...think she knew I'd be chuffed to bits so an extra lovely/thoughtful thing to do...

  • Sheesh Jacks, i really don't know what to say, except a woman of your resourcefulness will find something soon i am sure.
    Hope the list shows that you can cope with it all and being debt free will help.
