I've just decided to use this week to get everything sorted, my OU tutor is brilliant, hes give me upto 3 weeks extension for the assisgnment, but I dont want to use the 3 weeks, running about 2 weeks behind.
Doubt get my head round to study b4 thurs, mums got docs appointment 2mor, so that should give us some peace of mind, my dads just my dad, he apologied in his own way, basically the fact that he was trying to abide by mums wishes.
On a positive note, went on the website that you can name a star, so have named one in my sisters name, and also have decided to have my last tatoo (no 30), go on inside of right ankle, I'm not 100% sure on what I want, but have got either deep red rose with a heart and have her initial entinwed in it, or a moon, star and sun designm with the K entiwned. Get that done end of May, its weird but I've never had any of my tats done locally use 1 of 3 down in Devon. Know it sounds really daft, but after seeing her page on Sat, its as though shes giving me a kick up the bum to get on with life for me.
Havent managed any extras paid off this month, just been the basic £225, but thats good, and May is another month, and another month od debt busting.
Rome wasnt built in a day, and all I can do is take one day at a time,xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -

Lot more positive today, the GP was brilliant, really reassuring, bless him, he told us he was thinking about us last night as he hadnt seen us for a while!! Promise we dont have a reserved seat!!
He's chaseing up her hospital appointments, and has now puther on asprin permantely and told her to relax....... hopefully she will listen, bless him, while we were there my poor stomach went into spasm, so he ended up giving me a prescription for more painkillers, I'll rattle at this rate.
But were on the positive, and thats how were going to look.
I've done well made Mays payment 2ngt on Cap1, my snowball says £30.00 but I paid £45... a whole £15 extra, but plzed.
I think this debt busting lark has sunk in, without even thinking about it, I had an email from evans offering me 20% off my next order, came through Sunday and hadto be used by Monday, saw the discount info in the line and I did not even open the email, I went straight to delete..... xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Well done on the voucher M21. Sorry to hear you need more meds
. £15 is 50% more which is great. Just think a month or so ago you had cleared over 1000 compared to something like 700 budget so even if you have a slow month its all heading the right way.
Hope you Mum is feeling ok and she listens to the Doc.
Fingers crossed for a stress free debt busting May.:j0 -
Well done on the debtbusting.It is still more than the minimum payment and a lot of money you are doing well.
Hope the meds work well for both you and your mum.0 -

Now on 12hr fast, blood test at docs 2mor, check my sugar level
Then the fun starts, ordered dd a trampoline from Argos (the one on offer), got £50 Argos voucher (broke chair - had a cheaper one had refund back on card), so £50 left, it be early bday prezzie (not till Sept).
