Have a moan HERE!...

It seems many people, including myself, are not having the greatest of days and are feeling a bit like this little guy :wall:
SO here's a post to have a good old moan about whatever's on your mind. Let's get it all out of our systems so we can have a better afternoon!
I'll start - I'm annoyed, angry, fed up and disappointed :mad: that we ended up having to use our previously cleared egg credit card to pay for Christmas gifts at the weekend.
AND I hate my job. More than ever today. And I'm tired of always having to be so careful with money! Grrrrrr.
There. Much better now!
Who's next???

I'll go next please
I feel very much like this
at the moment. I'm having zero luck with finding a job. Feel like I'm applying for every single job I see that is relevant to me (and there has been a few) and I haven't had a reply from any of them, not even a "thanks but no thanks" :mad:
I'm trying really hard to pay off my debts, but without a reliable income, I just cant do it
Ok...Thats my rant over.
Next!!!!
Much Love

Can i bring a little light relief please? I have had a carp couple of months - the washing machine broke and flooded the floor and has taken 8 weeks to try and get sorted, the boiler broke and flooded the chap downstairs (shortly after the washng machine tried flooding him- lol), the cooker seal has broken, the front door lock has been removed, I hated my old job etc.
Anyway I have been informed today I will get a new kitchen floor within 2 weeks, the front door lock was fixed this morning, we have had a new boiler, the washing machine works, I quit my old job and I start my new job in 2 weeks time and hopefully someone will have a look at the cooker today as well. Oh and my OH has been diagnosed with a permanent bad back.
Just to prove the point that evenutally it will all turn a corner at once and you will all be in a positive frame of mind again.

Brillant thread.
I am fuming :mad: about being taken for granted at work. Sometimes it does not pay to be efficient as people who are not organised dump their work on you AND expect you to organise the Christmas party.
I am angry at myself for putting on the 20 pounds I lost at the start of the year, I am fed up of being a yo-yo dieter. If anyone has any tips for cracking this dieting lark once and for all I would be forever in their debt.
I am fed up that I have been so stupid with money that all my spare cash goes on debt repayments. I would really love to be able to pop out at lunchtime and get a manicure as my nails are terrible but I can't afford it.
Oh dear I could rant on for hours but better stop now ... .

debtfreesomeday that smiley pic just really improved my day(which should give you some idea of how bad it is!)
I've told friends and family that I can't afford xmas and so not to buy me pressies, which really sucks as my favourite bit about christmas is working out what to get people.
I felt so positive a few months ago but now it just feels like such hard work and i feel like giving up.
I went out with OH on Sunday, first time being near the shops since starting all this and I got very down about the fact that I couldn't afford to buy anything and could only look (i've sold nearly everything that wasn't nailed down and now i just feel incredibly deflated!)
ok rant over.... i too could go on forever at the moment....
don't get me started on work

Just a little moan for me really. Luckily, I was told yesterday that I have been taken on permanently after having been on probation for the last 6 months. I'm really chuffed and I'm once again motivated.
Home and money is a different matter.
We are ticking along fine all things considered but I had a debt free date of July 10 in my head. Now it's been put back to September (2 more months!! Grr) because hubby got his figures worng and his car is actually 1000 more left to pay....grrrr! We can't really afford xmas but I've been doing little bits on the cheap so that hubby can go and spend loads on his family when we don't really need to or have the money. We have a big holiday to pay for (I think I've got that sorted. Only £500 shy of the £2,500 target.....we booked it in better times but still want to go so even if I have to sell the furniture we will be going lol) but hubby keeps saying that he doesn't think we'll be able to go while spending £60 on home-brew kit the next day.
I'm not mad at him, I'm just mad that we can't do these things regardless.
My debt isn't mine in the majority...it's my ex's that I've been lumbered with and just as I thought I was making progress i get put back...again.
Still only 21 more payments!!!! Woohoo!!Proud to be dealing with my debts
Nov 08 - HSBC Loan £8540, Capital One, £1467 over 2 cards, Car Loan £1983, Personal Loan £1274 :mad: , Rent Back Charges £390, HFC £377 - Total £13,986 :eek:

Great thread!
I am sick of feeling like i am taking one step forward and two steps back!! :mad: I have recently had my credit card statement, i have been trying so hard to make some extra payments towards it then they put all the interest on it!!
And because of my stupid ways with money my credit rating isnt great so i cant get a BT :mad:
The present i really want to get OH for christmas costs £120, god knows where i will get that from :rolleyes:
But apart from that everything is great :rolleyes:Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0
