    Hi Stacey

    Unfortunately LL situation is still not sorted, he hasn't told his GF yet so no decision, refusing to pay until he makes his decision and if he keeps this way I'll stick to the arrangement I set out for him :) Found another house, just waiting for current tenants to move out so that we can view it, I was told last week they were moving out over the weekend, rang them this morning to arrange a viewing and the tenants are still there *shrug*

    I think we'd make a great pair together with strawberries, mine are dieing of thirst as I keep losing track of what I'm doing, still got 2 alive but unsure about my other 2 as they are very droopy, will keep watering and hope some life comes back to them :)

    Morning All

    Well this week I have managed to put the grand sum to my Credit card of £2.68 lol. I have paid it towards though as I feel at least it is something.

    Runner bean plant is now in the garden lets hope I get some soon. My tomato plant seems to be doing nothing.

    And my budget seems to be getting tighter and tighter these days.

    I have decided to try and find myself a part-time job as currently at home with son. I am wanting 16hrs 2 evenings a week and a sat morn that way oh can look after son. Tried my local Asda yesterday to be told theres no vacancies nor no forms. It demorolises you when people just simply arent happy to help you and r blunt.

    Ill get there cos Ill keeo looking just hope I can find the hours to suit me and my family.

    Wish me luck sorry for the long post

    y is it when things start t get back on track things go wrong again.

    The burst pipe in my kitchen as caused damage insurance will only pay for some of so thats gonna cost me to get it right. Otherwise I wont be happy bout it and will cost me more i nthe long run.

    I was just getting t a stage when I could seriously start ploughing at the CC and overpaying the mortgage but it just looks like its on hold again.

    Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrggghhhhh feel like I shouldnt be posting on this board and not actually overpaying my mortgage yet altho the desire is overwhelming. Although Im not in debt either

    Sorry for the moan needed to do it really
