    YAY on the Plus side today I sold my bike (£60)

    On the downside hubby has given me his tummy bug so have been in bed sleeping most of the day.
    This has meant yet another unpaid day for him as he had to be at home to look after the kids as there was no way I could. But yet he still left for the pub at 5.45 leaving me to battle bedtime with DS1 (DS2 is just about asleep). So he's currently sat on my bed watching TV after almost an hour of stories (good job I'm feeling a bit better).

    Hungry tho but the minute I look at food my tummy goes NOOOOOO.
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:

    wow - the money fairy reallly is being kind to us this week.
    hubby got paid.................an extra £600 (yes it was a lot more but the tax man went to the pub with that!!).
    So have splashed out and bought a new sofa (£350 delivered new). and transferred the rest into MY savings account for a the holiday I thought we had no chance of going on. Just hope there are still some bargain Travelodge rooms for the dates i want. no chance of him getting his drinking/ debt mits on it.

  • well he reckons he only needed £300 which i gave him so ........ watch this space.

    well it's d-day tomorrow..............................and guess what........................................... just caught him on w0nga.c0m.

    Told him he could ***insert choice word here*** think again.

    SO....... quel surprise................. £700+ going on my credit card (I'm guessing the original £300 i gave him has gone...............AGAIN!!!.

    Ohhhh but it's ok..... it'll be paid off within 3 weeks...............ermmm HOW???
    ........................with next seasons money.

    And you are planning on paying that back.................HOW???

    So next season ALL the money will be handled by ME!! He's not getting a penny of it.

    I am FUMING ....... I don't know what to do with myself.
    I cannot wait until my holiday with the boys - a week on Monday.
    And he can hand over all his cash/ debit cards. I will give him his £40 a week and he'll have to make it last.

    Food.... nah..... who needs to eat??? I'll make sure the kids have the stuff they are used to but he'll have to live on toasties/ beans on toast/ hotdogs etc once the freezers are eaten up. until the money is paid back.

    I realllllly can't take much more of this. !!!!!! am I sooooo concerned over money???? No one else is.

    Sorryy I had to get that out.
