    :hello: Hi everyone. :grouphug: to everyone that needs them.
    Grrrr for nosey receptionists.
    Back luck for the job redsquirrel. Keep on trying. At least you have a job. I haven't had a job for so long now - over a month and that only lasted 2 weeks. We will get good jobs. Sending you positive vibes.
    Feeling all positive today so hope that rubs off on everyone. Think I will fill in a tax form and try and claim my tax back from last year. Money. Yay.
    Have a good day everyone.

    I tend to cause arguments with creditors, or overpay too much and leave us stuck.

    Aren't those both different sides of the same coin?

    Creditors *want* you to over pay...if you don't they get stroppy...

    I think we all feel a little like that at times.

    I know I am normally budgeted to the hilt! The money always has somewhere to go.

    Payday today though... I feel rich!

    Good afternoon

    For some reason I have Rhett Butler Syndrome today - I really couldn't give a damn; but my to do list is getting sorted - done and don't care if it's wrong kind of thing.

    MrsD - hope it goes well with your husband tonight. Would it help to write out your concerns so that even if you get upset you still have something he needs to address?
    Ninja - if he keeps going, coming back for a week but you're rowing maybe you both need to ask yourselves whether the relationship is worth saving. If it is, then have you considered couples-counselling to help resolve the rows?

    I hope it all works out for the best for both of you.

    Sarah - I can always rely on some gift from AS for my birthday from Wayne. His mother was scandalised when he bought me the passionate pink pleasure product a couple of years ago; which started off this whole one-up-manship thing but I think Wayne and I are still winning on the shock her stakes!
