Unfortunately a bit too hard this month.

Sorry to make you write it all out - but I appreciate understanding it. And 1st April isn't long to go.... It sounds like nearly everything comes out in the 2nd half of the month; and as you say, two of them will be paid off in October anyway, which is brilliant. This is why you need to do your accounts and banking every day, isn't it - thats a really complex set of financial demands that you've got. But you *are* on top of it - even the very tough time this month ensures that more of whatever you earn next month is freed up, because you've made the final payment on some credit cards.

Hugs and positive vibes coming your way.

Don't apologise..it helps for people to understand it as it's two sets of monies to deal with.
It's all intertwined...sometimes things like car bills come into it but am on top of it normally.
I just burnt my fingers this month and will learn from it.

I do not have Amex,A+L or Halifax from next month.
Sadly,I don't have £70 worth of medication or £25 worth of food for my darling dog (RIP) next month.

Everything will be fine and I'll be totally in front with all bill money in bank by middle of April.

Hi all..just on for a short while.
Have been very busy today with stuff.This is the 1st chance I've had to get on here.

Was at work for 5.45am this morning...then needed to get bread..(4 loaves of Hovis wholemeal is only £2 in farmfoods)...then banking...put £220 in today so now £738.45 to find.
Then DS and I joined weightwatchers today ..I had 2 join free and first class free vouchers..so cost nothing and saved £29.90.
It was a good 20 mins walk each way so am really tired now.

Tomorrow..looks like being a long day as well....work for 6amish until 1.30pm..back home pick DS up...on to dentist for 2pm...then bank..then food shopping for DS and us...then home!!!

So far thursday looking quieter...friday I have a drs appointment after work.

hi taxi, once again you are forging the path that i'm about to take - the don't use credit cards at all path. Like you, i pay mine off in full each month, and i've kept saying that i won't use them at all, but at least i can now see what i need to watch during the month that i do 'ween' myself off of it. Doesn't help you much though
i can't wait for friday, then i can update my details on the 20k thread, but also i will be paying off my first loan in full. Still won't get anywhere near you on the 20k thread but it's all going in the right direction at the moment.
