Hi
A friend of mine used spareroom.com and has a Mon - Thurs lodger. In fact cause they are working they really only sleep in her house. Weekends are then free.
maybe you could do the same as a halfway thing - she gets £20 a night.
It's a great help.
Anyway - Good Luck!Snowball DF Nov 2017Jan 2011 MBNA £2634.66 Feb £2608.37 Mar £2561.860 -

For what it's worth I have found that nothing stays the same, we use what we have learned and hopefully move towards a more positive future. Thinking of you, you'll get through it.0

Aww, thanks guys for your well wishes.
I have been lurking around the forum for about two weeks now. And I went back to look at my old posts and how I did when I was getting out of debt the first time. It is really great to be back in the fold.
I know I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel right now, but I know it's there. I just have to persevere.
On a positive side, I got a cheque for £50 from a friend today for my birthday. It was really nice getting money through the post and not bills. More of that please!!

I know exactly what you mean with not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, I'm fairly new to this and just had debts, debts and more debts, i can not wait to type my first post stating that the debt is gone!
You have done it before so you know you can do it again
Also make sure you spend your bday on yourself and not on bills

Happy Birthday.
Very new to this site so please forgive me if I get it all bacwards uppards. I read not long ago that you can claim mortgage interest relief after 13 weeks now, Shelter I think have the details. Hope your not unemployed that long though. Good luck with it all, the path of life sure has a few dodgy flagstones though!0 -
Thanks for the birthday wishes. Birthday was Wednesday, the day I was told I was being put on unpaid leave by my temp job. :rolleyes:
I've put up a spare room for rent, so let's hope I get a lodger soon. It took quite a bit of talking to myself to come to terms with sharing my space with someone (hard to do after a break up:o) but I've got to do something, so here I go....
I couldn't possibly spend that birthday money on myself, in it goes to the bank, while I try to figure out the way to get the other £365 to pay mortgage at the end of the month!
:rotfl:
But I'm keeping positive, it's a long dark road ahead, but at least my smile will light the way. As I say, the only way is up, right?
Hope you all have another great DFW day. Chalk up another NSD for me!! (these are easy when you ain't got no money!:rotfl:)MFW Newbie - #17. (#116 in 2019)
