    Sorry to hear that flower08.Sending some hugs your way.I think that if you accept your having a crummy day/week and allow yourself to wallow (just for a bit!)then it won't do you any harm.I'm sure your making progress luvie.Imagine if you hadn't been trying with the whole money thing,you'd be in a right state now cos of the unexpected amount.I know it's often 2 steps forward,and 1 (and a half-lol)steps back but you will get there.Chin up sugar x

    Hi Folks

    £100 PAD for me today.

    Hugs to those who need them.

    Flower8 sorry to hear about your car troubles. It does feel like that sometimes one step forwards and then two back, but just think at least you had room to put the car repairs on your cc card as you had been so good doing the PAD in the first place:T

    Afternoon everyone

    Got my online account sorted for Scallyfax so have paid £14.67 which with my minimum payment will take my balance to zero:j. I can't believe that I have managed to get rid of this balance of 13K on to other cards or paid off as it had a 3K cash advance stuck on it at 29.95% which of course would have been paid off last. I will just have to pay the trailing interest and then it will be sorted.:D. Also paid £5.33 to car fund to round down my account. I have adjusted my sig to show the money taken from the car fund to pay off the credit card so all is straight now and it has brought forward my debt free date by 3 months.

    Don't know how you do it Fagashlil spinning on my head is just the sort of week I have been having totally mad hoping to catch up on things tomorrow which is a bit calmer. We still want to move but can't find a suitable house I am a fussy b***er. So plan B is to try and sell our house in Lanzarote and reassess the market then and if there is still nothing try and buy a plot and build our own. The problem is we need to go to Lnazarote to put it on the market and we can't get there before August so all on hold at the moment. I am still looking for houses though and if one came up I would put this house up for sale and hope for the best but don't want to sell this one and have nowhere to go to. Too much upheaval to rent with 4 kids and my mom who will be 93 this month.

    The visit to the dentist yesterday was fine told him about the electric chair and he thought it was very funny:rotfl:

    PAD Today £20 to Scallyfax and Car Fund

    Sorry to hear things are not too good Flower08. You have done so well with your debt repayment it is horrid when something comes along to trip you up but things would have been even worse if it happened a few months ago and you will get back on track. Take care of yourself.
