    If it's any consolation KP I've not kept up at all well with the finances this month and I think I'll be cursing myself at the start of April. Think 'damage limitation' and reining it in as best you can then fresh start come next month x

    Sorry to hear that work is rubbish..take care xxx
  • Thank you for your kind words

    As usual a few hours of doing little but sleep and watch tv has helped. Had a good day at work yesterday. My old dept had a sport relief day and raised over £500 :j so that was fun.

    Dared to look at the bank account and been saved by the 13th CB payment so should subject to no more unplanned spends end the month with a few pennies in the account rather than an the expected overdraft. This means I will have cleared half of the £1k xmas overspend :).

    Will have roughly £600 extra in the pay packet this month so toying on wether to clear part of the cc to clear the whole of the xmas overspend or to put it in the savings. Pros and Cons to both but prob will use on cc and hope I keep in budget for the rest of the year.

    OH out with mates today so really hoping he has a great time and gets asked to go again. Costs may increase a bit but it will be worth it to see him happy. He is so good with money these days its me that needs to learn!!

  • Ref work have a meeting Wed morning so hopefully it will go my way. Feeling really nervous because my new head of dept will be sitting in and he will be interviewing for the "new" position which in effect is my own job but a grade up. Im having to complete against others so will be at a disadvantage as they havs acheived more in 2009.
