Lucielle's daring debt free journey

Been to work, managed to throw the hoover round and finally get some washing dried outside as its a lovely day. DD1 is off to her frineds tongith for her final visit before they move. She is going to be one upset poppet.
Just had a phone call from my big sis, my nephew is in hospital but he should be coming out tomorrow. He hurt his knee and it has got an infection in it and needed intravenous drugs to get him better. No debt busting at the mo as we are trying to get through this next week on minimum spends uintil OHs wages are nearer normal.

Ahhh hugs for your little DD.It must be awful for her.
Also hugs for your poor nephew and his poorly knee..poor little man.
And as everything comes in threes ..hugs for you too having to keep spends until OHs wages come in.0 -
Just picked DD up, she is holding it together for now. I think the next few days will be tricky. OH has managed to negotiate the rent and its only going to go up by £50 per month. Wait and see what happens next year. Loan payment comes out tomorrow, should bring that under the 10k mark.

Managed to pay just over £160 off the ccs and o/d. Wages are pretty dire but luckily get paid next week and also the child benefit comes as well. Its our wedding anniversary tomorrow. We have decided no cards as we are away next weekend (sooo looking forward to it) to go and see Billy Connolly. Washing machine has decided to die again and the chap can't come until next week. A friend has taken a load of washing just so I get the school uniform done.

We haven't done anniversary/valentines cards for year - an incredible waste of money when you are as skint as we have been over the years! I would be really cross if OH bought a card!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

We're with you and haven't done the anniv cards for many years - A complete waste of money. I'd rather have the weekend away but we've not done that for a while either!!!

DS1 has just shot a buuny but it had mixy so it was probably a blessing for the poor thing. Oven hinges have arrived and been installed. OH has manged to get some overtime in tomorrow so that should help and he is on nights next week. Just waiting for 1 final order from a customer then I can submit the Avon for the final time.

A bit of both. I have some lovely customers and I will miss our put the worlds to right chats. The nights are drawing in and falling up and down steps I really didn't fancy. Honestly if somebody had a cam-corder they could've made a fortune out of me! Once I had made the decision it felt like a weight had been lifted. Don't get me wrong it has really helped out in the last 12 months but I feel the lack of support from the management helped me to make the decision. I'll get off my soap box now.
