hi there....
lol like the subject of your message... havent been on for a while as am busy working full time and doing some for a text company as well... oh that and looking after 4 children and the other half!!!
As for the debt, its still there arrrrrrggggghhhhhhhh. things are definately a bit more sorted but it is going down SOOOOOOOOOO slowley. I will be about 100 by the time its gone!!! At the moment im feeling a bit better about it mainly because its been a while since we've had any hassley letters and phonecalls so im not dreading the post in quite the same way. Me and the OH still argue like mad about it all but thats envitable when you have no money to do anything at all!!
Anyway, I have to crack on with some work.. thankyou SO much for asking after me and would love to hear how things are at your end too

Hi Klare(s)!

I was after kicking kay but it's always good to hear that fellow money savers are getting on. Klare, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your father, it sounds as though you were able to be with him, I hope that it was peaceful. So it's particularly impressive that you've managed to continue with your debt management, good luck with that and just remember to give yourself some time to yourself over these weeks.

Queen of debt Klare, I'm really pleased that things are going well for you, it must feel great to start to gain control of your finances and not have to dread the post. This has been my first full month of budgeting and I've learnt a few lessons. I feel i've really made progress with my food shopping, which was one area that I was concerned to get under control, but I have overspent my travel budget and the little things I have bought over the month (extra wool for a knitting project, birthday present etc) have meant that I have spent all my spending allowance. However I have managed to make it through the month without overspending in total having transferred £370 to my debts at the start of the month. Next month I plan to continue reducing my food shopping budget, start getting some Christmas present shopping and look around for a part time job. I was hoping for a position at Sainsburys but they're only recruiting from mid-November, M&S are currently advertising and pay £5.98 per hour in london, but I think it will be heavy on the weekends which is the only time i get to see my boyfriend
