Its All About Me! - Joke, just an update

First off, i just want to thank everyone for their kind words of support at the weekend when I was having what I will call 'a moment'. :confused: I was really struggling and had been for a few days, i should of come here sooner as I knew I would get the help and support oh and the virtual kick up the butt i needed.

So, as i feel a lot better about the world in general today I thought I update you all with my progress.

My DMP is going well, no one to date has refused the ccs offers, even MBNA and Morgan Stanley have agreed to the offers and frozen interest with a review date of 12 months time! I was shocked but it seems as though ccs are respecked and listened too thank goodness. Im recieving lots of default notices which was expected, not a great thing but its for the best.

My business idea hasnt taken off the ground, its a no go with the supplier so im still hunting for ideas.

My ebay listings are going well, ive managed to make just over £200 in the last two weeks after fees etc. Im saving this for emergency's and also maybe for a weekend away in the summer oh and then there's hubbys birthday lol too many things to save for.

Oh and i get paid in 9 days time and i still have over £200 in my account which hasnt happened since i was 18 and just starting work LOL i cant believe what a difference my budget sheet makes. I double check every penny i spend, it was getting obsessive but im working on finding a happy balance. It will come im sure.

Thanks again for the support guys i couldnt do this with out you.

Take care

Pixie

Oh and Ive lost 5 1/2 lbs and 10 inches after just 7 days on my cambridge diet plan :T
