Eco - you are really valued by lots of people even if those closest to you don't realise it.
You definitely have lots of good karma built up and I'm sure you will get some of it back soon.
Bring on the weekend and good luck with your decorating.

Thanks make up, was a bit cheesed off yesterday someone at work annoyed me as well, which surprised me when he came in today and grovelled for me to help him, even offered to buy me some sweets, asked him how long he thought I was a charity case, I've heard that much carp out of that person that I told him he could basically take a jump, think he thought I was dumb enough to listen.
Enough of that it's the weekend and I intend to enjoy it, and thank the lord it's not as hot in Yorkshire as it said it was in London, it's a bit fresher here, still feel like I'm living in a bread oven tho.0 -

I'm packing all my stuff and spending sometime with the lady I'm seeing. Still haven't got keys to my new place and it's killing me! I just want to move already...The size of a glory hole in an open pit should not be greater than the cross-section of the haul trucks that dump into it.

Hello all:)
I have calmed down now and am feeling better, I know I am going to get there so I just need to keep plodding on. Am bored of plodding though:(
Nothing much to report, have been working at staying calm and being sensible and as frugal as possible and I know I will be okay, I just get myself worked up sometimes:o. Am on course to shut the cc in a couple of months and then it's one more cc and my loan to go. I really need to build up my savings though to avoid any more panic so after this cc is closed I am going to stop making anything other than the minimum payments to the last cc and get some money in the bank.
So, for July:- £100 grocery budget
- huge declutter
- coins in piggy
- money to cc
- clicks
- surveys
- start ebaying again:(
Hope everyone is okay, Lula, thanks for your lovely post:T

good to hear from you & I'm very relieved that you are feeling a bit better about things now; this debt busting really wont last forever, although it often feels like it.
Perhaps you & your travelling binbag would care to come & delcutter all the stuff I still havent got around to putting on ebay
Take care of yourself & dont be gone for so long next time please, you have been missed :A
bye for now

There is something to be said for this hot weather, in that I really can't be bothered going out or doing anything so not spending much, done some decorating and beginging to think the end is in sight now, but I'm really bored of it now.
Not going to save anything this month tho, cos there's something wrong with my boiler and the guy's coming Friday to fix it, he was recomended by a friend and he's been to service my boiler before so I trust him, but I see that as a total waste of money till it get cold then I'll be thinking it's worth every penny, right off to do some decorating before I talk myself out of it.0 -
Just before I go are any of you registered with suppersavvyme, they do a lot of samples and at the moment there's a free bag for life and a pantene sample.0

Hello everyone, we just been told at work that our payment date has to change from 15th of the month to 28th of the month but we dont know when yet. so will have to change all my direct debits again soon. Its my day off today, been to asda spent £32 on food frugally. they are doing three pizzas for £3. changed the reverse bulb in my car as it was white and blown. I got a week off with my daughter from the 19th so looking forward to that so will have to be frugal and have lots of picnics on days out. and she is also coming camping with me at the woodvale rally on the 7/8 august with the car club.
been getting phone calls that hang up when i answer, its just says ext call on the display.
