:mad:One more day gone and no news. Yesterday I got £150 from quidco and used £100 to pay to barclay card as well as £20 to Argos. £10 left for food shopping till next wednesday (child tax credit comes in).
Its my son's 1st birthday on monday but we cannot afford to get him a rocking chair (19.99).
Mu hubby's family will be coming for birthday celebrations and I need to get a cake. we asked them about money so we can put it in his child trust fund account, but most likely we will end up with lost of clothes which he doesn't need. (My friend has a son few month older so we get plenty of good quality clothes from her).
Unfortunately my family is not in UK (even so my mum always send money for kids birthdays, she will only be able to send it at the end of march).
My hubby's family is no help at all which can be very annoying as they only live 15 min away from us, but will go for a month without seeing their grandchildren unless we go there.
We have to go there coming Sunday and I'm dreding already. My hubby has other two brothers (one - married with two kids - who lives of the benefits and the other still lives with his mum. All of them are better off than us financialy, but all we get from them is constant telling what we should and should not do and it drives me crazy.) The only reason we argue with hubby is because of his family. I don't work so MIL constantly tells me I need to get a job (when I had my second child and went to work after 8 weeks she wasn't happy either and told me I should be staying at home. This is with other daughter in law who hasn't worked fro the last 5 years and never tells her a world. So annoing.
I got the phone call today about interview I attended last week - not suitable.
I must've applied for about 30 jobs today - lets hope at least one interview will come out of this.Sainsburys Loan - £6945, Car - £5116, Barclaycard - £13499.99; Sant.Zero card - £500; Tesco card - £716.79; Argos - £116.88
