    Thanks Guys

    Feeling a little better, although Mother is still being a pain. I think I might take myself out for the day somewhere.

    Anyway 2 of the items I relisted yesterday already have watchers so hopefully they'll sell.

    GRRRRRRR!!!

    Oh and I need to book my car in for a service.... and I think it might need new tyres. I'll get one of the guys at work to have a look, but thankfully the tyre place opposite offers 10% discount if you work on the estate.

    Right so tasks for today:

    Relax
    Try and list something else on ebay.

    Tasks completed:

    Credit card taken OUT of purse and hidden away
    Current debt - £16,300 :(
    Debt at worst 17/03/2011 - £18,067.62:eek::eek:

    Hi

    Just got back from a NT house and garden. Actually went with Mother and we have had a nice time. We've had a bit of a chat and hopefully things will be better.

    Feeling a little more relaxed and very smug as day out has got £3.60 + petrol, I love being a NT member, would have been about £25/30 otherwise :money:

    Now going to spend some quiet time before cooking mother some pasta bake.

    Shoe Gal - there will be another list for tomorrow, for stuff like booking my car in for it's service and getting my tyres done, they may have to go on the c/c, but then I will ebay like hell to pay it off and have soe savings.

    xx

    Hi. Sorry to hear you are having such a rubbish time or late. Glad to hear things are a little better today.
    Bloke sounds like a right one and a complete idiot - you're lucky you've found out now.
    Aunt - again - at least you know and you can enjoy her company and say the things you want/need to say and it's not too late.
    Mum - is it your mum sister who is ill? if it is then she could be taking it badly and this could be what's making her stressed and out and maybe she's thinking she's not as young as she used to be and worrying about her health etc? Anway - if she's close to your aunt it could have been a big shock for her and it'll take you all time to adjust.
    Work - um not sure what to do about work but everyone will be in the same boat so stick together - is it worth trying to get another job or is it normally o.k?
    Anyway take care.

    Thanks

    it is Mum's sister, and it was a bit of a shock. We'll be ok.

    Right jobs for tomorrow:

    - Book car in for service
    - get quote for tyres
    - do a load of washing when home from work.
    - try to have a nsd

    right think that's it, don't want to over load myself or anything.

  • Hey Lucy,

    I keep thinking about starting a diary, but I've had bad experiences after opening myself too much on a forum. And I don't want to end up so whiney that people start getting sick of me, or that I think they are doing - often not the same thing at all!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Hi Lucy, just noticed you're back, you fell off the face of the earth there for a while! Sorry you're having a horrible time, but I think Ames is very wise advising you to break things down to make them more manageable. Chin up!

  • Hello :wave:

    Hope you are still feeling better. Life can be so carp at times just when you think nothing else bad can happen :mad:. Keep doing lists Im going to do that on my diary. Did a big list for the weekend and it felt good ticking stuff off. Dont stress at debt just aim for decreasing it slowly trying to do too much is likely to end up in a splurge.

    Lastly ((((hugs)))) I wont even start with what my Mums up to at the mo :(
