Brilliant news.
What's plans do you have for the future now that money doesn't factor as a worry?
Well to be honest we're so frightened stiff of ever getting into the same state I'm not sure.
Our house needs everything doing. OH is still trying to complete the kitchen, a long way to go yet on that one, spent about 3 months without a cooker, don't get me started on that story.
I'm going to treat my DD's to...........wait for it...........a build a bear each on saturday
As thats what they've wanted for a long time but we couldn't afford it.:o
Apart from that I think we'll just take our time in managing our wages and just plodding on really.
We've never been in this position before so it's unique for us both really.

I'm the same, too scared to ever get into debt again to go too mad spending!! - It doesn't hurt to be cautious until you find a level which gives you a reasonable standard of living, without getting you back into debt, when you save for things, they are all the more special for it;)
A few bits need doing at my house - not much, but feel too tight to spend the money now, though it has been nice to be able to treat the children a bit, even if it's just an icecream down the beach, rather than saying " wait 'til you get home, I can buy a whole tub for that much! " like an old skin flint!Comping again - wins so far : 2 V festival tix, 2 NFL tix, 6 bottles of wine, personalised hand soap, Aussie miracle conditioner :beer:
