Another Debt Free Diary :)

You know I think I really need to speak to my Mom, I think that's the problem over my head at the moment...
and don't worry about the lecture - you say that I'm doing well working extra hours - well when I go back to the start of my diary - I say about how hard I work and how hard I spend at the same time, I'm getting there though - I mean the fact I haven't drank in about 2 weeks is a big deal!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270 -
Hi Elizabeth, Just wanted to post a note of encouragement, been having a read and you're doing really well so try not to get despondent.
The tofu stirfry sounded yummy and you've been doing really great on your lunches for work. :j
Good luck with HOF, hopefully they will make an offer back to you. x0 -
Thanks I am getting there - but as Tete en l'air said I'm really not sure I've had my LBM for life!! I hope that once my target is more in sight again then it'll re-click. I think maybe it's just the not being able to see the light at the end of tunnel scenario at the moment!!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270

Well looking at your signature, massive light at the end of the tunnel surely! You've made a big dent in your debts right? You've cleared 3 cards and working on the rest. That's great :j Ups and downs are inevitable, but you've made progress on your journey.0

I'm sure you'll feel loads better after a chat with your mum and getting it all out in the open. You'll feel better once payday comes around as well and you can do something proactiveWeightloss: 14.5/65lb0

Yes I'm sure once I've paid off the rest of those Pay Day Loans I'll be feeling a lot better about it all!! Can get back to not paying ridiculous charges and try not to think of all the money I've wasted doing it these past months... have to move forward and all that!! And only a week until pay day now!!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270

Nothing like a weekends hard work to make me feel better
Ended up not sleeping for 36 hours of it - working in London at Skyride which was just so much fun!! Got to wait for my wages from that to hit my account and am now already thinking of where I can get my next job from (I have work on the 11th October for a day again but want something before that!)

Oh and today will be a spend day as I need to get some food in for lunches. My Mom went round my house when I wasn't there on Sunday though and left me some food in the freezer and a £5 to borrow until pay day. But am going to have 3 NSD this week at least!!
Pay Day Friday!!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270 -
Just checked my bank balance and already been paid £57 for working Sunday - that's after bl**dy tax of course but means I can update my siggie and am closer to target!! Just realised I haven't even made a start on my ebay target naughty!!!

Excellent news Elizabeth! :T
And 3 NSD this week would be excellent!
I was working on 5 but have spent 20p at work in the coffee machine this morning, so 4 is now my target! I spend approx 60p per day in the coffee machine - 1 drink on my 3 breaks - annoying because it's not technically an NSD if I spend 60p, must stop the caffeine from the machine fix! :rotfl:
And good old mum :A - gotta love them!0
