Buffythedebtslayer

hello my friend,

thought I'd drop by, remind you that as Hypno says there are no rules, feel what you feel and do what you have too.

Love Buffy xxx

HI Swinstie and Everyone else,

I am doing okay. I read on the site occassionaly but don't really feel much in the mood to post. It's nice to see how other's are getting on though.

I have been on my own in the evenings this week and the first thing that I would do is call mum - that has been really hard. Seeing Mother's Day stuff in the shops also set me off - tere are so many things that are coming up that mum will miss.

Work has been really busy which has been good in a way. I'm feeling bad because I haven't been able to see dad but I am planning on going over quite a bit over the weekend.

On the money front - I haven't really got much to report. I've got some money to last me to pay day and then I should be able to make a decent payment on my debt. It feels a bit meaningless at the moment.

Sorry - feeling a bit low tonight.

Hope you are all okay.

Hi Everyone

It's been a bit of a weekend. My body had finally given up and given in to a nasty cough. I have been hacking away all weekend! I managed to get a GP appointment and have some antibiotics as I have a throat infection! I'm going to head off to bed shortly.

Life is a bit stressful at the moment - I need to make some decisions about the wedding at the end of may. I am finding it very upsetting and really don't know what to do.

On a more positive note, I updated my finances this weekend. If my numbers add up correctly (and things may have changed a little) I should finish my student loan payments in March and I will have about £500 remaining debt to take into April. I did want to be debt free in March but it wasn't meant to be.

I hope you are all okay.

A few weeks onto your debt free date is nothing in the bigger scheme of things.

What is more important is that you get yourself better xx

I totally agree with Hypno here.

Good luck in deciding what you want to do about the wedding...you have a few months to mull it over.

Take care xxx

Hi Everyone,

I've been off work today following a terrible night's sleep and unstoppable coughing fits. My throat feels like someone's thrown a cheese grater down it!

In between my mini sleeps I have been thinking about what I'd like to achieve after I become debt free. I think I also have to think about what my short, medium and long term goals are so that I can decide how to focus my money. I also need to get OH onside as we aim towards some things together (I.e. Buying a house!).

I think this will need some thought. Every year I try to set some goals but I have not done that this year. I think that I will have a think about it and set some goals over Easter.

Back to rest for a little while!

Hey urg, hope you are resting, think the sore throat is going around as I have one too (and sore ears). Mini goals are better than big ones, they don't seem as daunting.

Hope you feel better soon, take care of yourself x
