Hey Fionas,

Don't feel guilty. As the others have said happy you = happy family.

I have been undergoing a complete transformation for the past 18 months, which has cost the family heaps in $$$ but i have feel the best i have ever felt. My r'ship with DH is much better and is with the kids too.

I have lost 16kgs (gym fees, lite n easy fees), cut my hair, new sexier outifits, will be going to a Napoleon Perdis make up workshop on the 27th ($229), getting a boob job in October ($10k).

But i feel great. DH can do stuff like that too and he knows it but he puffs his money away (he smokes a lot and drinks) so he spends his money that way. I don't feel guilty at all. I don't smoke or drink, so i spend the equivalent on his smoking and drinking my way!

You need to take care of yourself and do things for yourself.. Good on you girl!
