Single and in debt.

Flying visit, feeling still quite blah at the moment and its bloody freezing here as well

Huge congratulations on the promotion SunderlandBlackCat .. need a P.A.?

Awesome weight loss Bowski! All you folks out there doing exercise are inspirational, I didn't manage to get out for a long walk this week which I think is part the reason I only lost 1/2lb.

I did have a chat with an employment agency today who dealt with an application I made for a little part time office job with a Chartered Accountants, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that if that is successful I am at least working closer to the industry I would love to work in! With the juggling of my benefits it will make me have an extra £20 a week, its only 10 hours a week so not enough to get me off Income Support, but never know what future brings. Might spur me into finishing this book keeping course as well :rolleyes:

Anyway love to all!

Thanks. :rolleyes: If you were someone's P.A. here you would still be a grade or 3 above me.

Hi Sarah - I am 35 and single as of this Wednesday just gone, so I think I can join in this thread! Haha. The relationship only lasted 10 months anyway and I got in to debt 6 years ago, way before he came on the scene. I rent a home and have no kids or cats. I've been paying off my debt steadily for the last 4 years and will be DF at the end of this month woohoo! I think clearing your debt is a personal thing and the details don't really need to be shared with a partner unless you are living together of course. My recent ex is actually terrible with money and is one of the reasons why I don't see a future for us, I would not want to worry about his financial situation after worrying about mine for so long! It's ok to be single and it's natural to feel lonely too...I feel for you. If you are looking for someone to share you life with then I hope you find someone gentle and kind who is financially savvy and he can support and inspire you...that's definitely what I'm after next! Sending you a hug x

Butterfly, that was such a lovely thing to say, thank you so much! I have my fingers crossed!
Well done on being DF at the end of the month :jthat must feel brilliant! It's nice to hear from people who have come out the other side. You are right, it is such a personal thing, I hate discussing it with people, which is why this thread is so brilliant, we can vent without being judged and everyone understands. Welcome to the thread, and if you have any worries about weight, men, money or life in general you are in the right place! xxx

Hello all, haven't been in for a few days, internet has been playing up:mad: . Hope everyone is well and well done on all the weight loss, I will read the thread properly and update the list later, just off to the shops as I have seen a bag I need and I can't get it on the internet, so off to trawl the city centre, wouldn't normally venture in on a Saturday, but this is an emergency.

I think DS might have won a Wii, its a little bit hearsay at the moment but I am so excited! He was reading a comic and his name is in the list of winners, now of course there may be a boy with same name in our town that happened to have entered same comp but we will have to see!

Somehow I have it in my mind that Wii is the new dawn in home exercise and I want to be jumping all over the place looking like a complete numpty.

Been to town today to draw out a little from DS savings as he is buying the train tickets and popcorn for our trip to Cardiff to see a preview of Igor so not really DFW style but he is all excited about paying for our day out tomorrow Very jealous of your bag buying Sarah, I just cant seem to find one that I like atm and I need to get a decent one for work since my last bag has gone to bag heavan

Yargo, you are putting my lardy !!! to shame with all this exercise, hoping the weather improves as I want to get out for a long walk before I weigh on weds :rolleyes:

Ohh Ossireo I hope he has, you'll have to let us know!! That's fantastic, I'd love it if DD won a wii, would save me at least £200 this xmas lol

I sooooo wish I didn't have a nite do to go to tonite, it's chuckin it down and its absolutely freezing!!! I don't even know what the heck I'm gonna wear and I've only got an hour n half to decided on something. It's not like I have alot of options so I guess it shouldn't take too long.

This time lastyear I'd have put my heating on so it was nice and warm for me getting in !! I realise how blinkin crazy that is now, so not going to do it. I am looking forward to getting in though and getting straight into my p.j's and a jumper and gettin straight into bed with a brew, I'll do DD a hot water bottle to make up for the lack of warmth in the house!

Well I had quite a good DFW day yesterday, put £5 in my friends card for her birthday, thats what we all do for each other,pointless really i guess but it is nice to get a nice amount to treat yourself to something. the card I got her was only 29p..home bragains special!! I loved it, didn't look tacky or anything, i was well impressed!! So, we went for an all you can eat buffet and I just had water with it so that just came to £7. I only took £10 with me so I knew I wasnt going to spend much more than that. My sister bought my first drink in the first pub, then we went to my mam's pub and I got a diet coke...55p and then a lass went home ill and I got roped into working. I got £20 which I gave to my mam what I owe her and then got a few tips and ended up coming home with £4.85. Not bad considering I only went out with £10, got fed watered and paid £20 off my debt lol

Will only be taking £10 out with me again tonite, but will have to put £10 in the card and will have to buy a card from Asda on my way which is gonna be at least £1.50:mad: I know it's not alot but I really thought I had a wedding card in my cupboard but I can't find it. If I knew I didn't have one, I could have searched for a cheapo one in town during the week. I really need to be more organised!! It will never happen tho. I am sat here, absolutely everything needs doing...hair..face..clothes for both me and DD yet I'm in no rush to move. I'll start freaking out in a bit when i'm rushing around !! To be honest i'm not fuessed bout getting their too early coz I only know the bride and groom so gonna be just me and DD. She's already told me she won't have a boogie with me and i'll have to dance on my own..yeah right !!!

Gees, what a ramble... I hope you's all have an enjoyable warm saturday night.
I may well be back on later, depending on what time I get in from the doo!
