in Bankruptcy & living with it
After a fraught (spelling?) 24 hours on here thought I would start a positive thread!

I know it is not for everyone going to be a spectacularly wonderful Christmas because of various personal circumstances but I would for one like to wish everyone - yes you heard it - EVERYONE! a lovely Christmas and a positive 2008!

Hugs and good wishes to all!

Off to eat spaghetti hoops with my son and then making paper chains! :D

    hello just perused onto this board - never been here before so hello guys!!! I am not bankrupt so not sure why I had a nosey but just wanted to say well done to you all for dealing with it. It must be horrendous! I'm glad you all have each other to chat to as there musn't be anything worse than feeling alone in that situation. Hope you all have a merry and healthy and happy christmas and all the best for 2008!! :) (I'll sneak off back to the Boots thread now!!)

    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    heres some christmas cheer and positivity.

    were all alive, we are more or less, hopefully healthy. we are warm and not hungry. some of us have large tvs, some of us more rooms than we can live in. some of us are in flats.

    we have all at some point been selected to walk this earth, the reason ? i dont know. but i am sure there is one.

    so between now and our own certain death, shall we enjoy the company of all our brothers and sisters and welcome the sight of a fresh new year and celebrate and thank the creators of all we do and see.

    at christmas time, money is the least important thing. my best memories of christmas which stand out are all based on former family events, tv programs and a fine festive atmostphere. something which we all know, money cant buy.

    so if you want a good christmas this year, forget your money problems and thank god your alive. take care of your family and offer them good company and happiness as presents.

    merry christmas you shower of money grabbing oblerons !!!
    best wishes to all.....

    dont forget to give.
