hi kristi, yes i get nights of insomnia , is usually when i have a million things to do and havent done them , so i stress about when they should get done and then think of more things to put on the to do list ... it never ends . yesterday afternoon i had a cup of tea and i kept me awake for hours . i knew i was sensative to cafffiene and usually have a cup of tea in the morning then decaff coffe if im out , but i felt like a cuppa , but i will never do that again unless its decaff ...

and yes , im back at "work" i am a contractor/demonstrater for a major modern cloth nappy company and i do demos at homes and markets and do baby showers for those who want to get a heap of nappies , and i said i wanted the month of september off and not do anything, but i was getting so many emails from women who wanted demos an to get a whole heap of nappies , so i couldnt say no , otherwise id be overwhelemed in Oct..

plus its my own business with an abn number so i like to keep motivated and do a little something for me .. it pays pretty well (but thats not the point to me .. ) and i really love doing it, i met a great couple yesterday that i will be keeping in contact with as we all (dh included ) got along so well .. DH comes with me sometimes coz he loves the nappies too .... but the commission is all mine

Kellie , love your ticker ... do you get FTB ?? if you do , you have probably heard about the CCB ..( child care benefit) we get 54% and up to 50 hours a week on the ccb .. so what ever the day care charges we only pay 54% of it or get 54% off ( cant remember) but the centre nix is going to is $55 a day and we only have to pay $28 a day .. and that includes food so for $28 he gets looked after and fed and i get a break ... well worth it ... and at tax time you get 30% of whatever you have paid to the centre .... so it does work out ok ... and the 54% is based on a income of $70 000 so if the earnings are less the ccb is more .. kwim
