Re: did this turn positive-ish? should i try to GW?

Thank you! I have spent countless hours on this board and writing emails and sending letters lol. I seriously can't believe what's all happened so far some days! I started with like.... almost 30 baddies from 2006-2008. Smiley Embarassed But I am doing my hardest now that I'm a (mostly haha) responsible adult and would like to buy a house for my daughter and myself next year Smiley Happy 5 out of 7 collections are medical that I should never have had to pay so I am doing my best to get that fixed too. It's worth the effort though!

 

And shogun you never fail to crack me up Smiley Very Happy
