Hi
I think the CJ has arrived as I have a red slip from the postie- will collect in the morning
Seax- https://www.susanjeffers.com has got quite a few and they are good ones, soI'd recommend looking there first
Well - TMI ALERT- I know why I was ill - got my period today - this is crazy - feels like I'm really pregnant every month (that sick, tiredness, exhaustion part) and I cannot function. Grr.....must make yet another app with the dr as I think just alternating the dosages of the anti-ds is not going to magically help.
anyhoo- hope to be around a little more this weekend.

Hi all -
sorry not been updating - not had much to update with really and the usual day to day stuff isn't that interesting I think!
I'm currently earning some more money by exam marking so have been busy doing that over half term. OH and I have been getting on ok, which is nice- things seem to be getting so much better and I am happy about that. Obviously, early days, but I think this year is going to turn out to be a good one
Been really quite angry at myself about the debt situation - OH and I were talking about our family the other day - we would love another - especially after last year- and it's certainly been something that's been on my mind over the last few months. But I just don't see how we could with the debt etc. If we wait another 2 1/2 - 3 yrs then the gap will be big between the kids and we didn't really want that. I know I'm lucky to have the two I have, and should really be contented, but if I hadn't been such an idiot with money, we could be trying for another and seeing what happened rather than feel it might well end up disadvantaging the children if we were to have another. Oh I don't know. Ignore me!

Hello Sea! Nice to see you back and I'm glad that things are going well.
On the baby thing... big gaps are good!
I have 3.5 year gaps between mine and it's worked out really well both times. The older ones feel sure of themselves and not displaced by the new baby, and they can help too. And the children get on really well too - far better than I did with my siblings and we had really small gaps between us. So I am glad we left longer gaps each time - honestly, I'm not just saying it!Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620 -
Thanks hon - just me moaning!! I love the gap between my two (2 1/2 yrs) and also wanted to have them and - actually I'll just stop going on about it!!
Am going to actually list some things on Ebay - money things not been great as have been spending too much on crafty bits! So need to get some extra in
