  • Aww, big cuddle.

    I know how you feel. only got paid on the 23rd - have some money left but need MOT and new tyres put on car tomorrow, plus cat's jabs. Also in the process of moving this month (over 100 miles away too) so lots of petrol!

    And as i have now left my job (starting uni at the end of the month) my next wages will only be mileage owed to me so will be well down and my bursary with the GSCC is not sorted out yet either!

    Agghhh

    PROUD TO BE DEALING WITH MY DEBTS :D

    know how you feel Moozie. I thought I was doing my good deed on friday at work and handed in a voucher I found (lot of money) to reception. They actually said to me 'why didn't you keep it'? I was outraged, told them it wasn't mine to keep and I'd feel bad doing so. Well after that I went out to the car and dropped my handbag on the tarmac........my pressed powder compact smashed on the car park floor :-(. I just wanted to cry. Can't really afford to replace it at the moment. Paying off lots of debt. Was doing really well till my boyfriend left (cold feet) and since then my health has taken a nose dive and I've been left with huge medical bills......all adding to my debt.

  • Hug to you Moozie!

    I feel like poo today. Am off work as I have back problems. These have been going on for over a month now and at the weekend became the worst they have been ever - I mean I could barely walk and getting out of a chair was demoralising and embarassing.

    Went to the Doctors today and he has referred me for physio but that could take forever to sort out so I am going to a private guy tomorrow. It will cost me £28 but I don't care. If it works I'd gladly pay double that.

    I decided over the weekend that although I will continue to be careful (goes without saying) I have now officially stopped obsessing about money & debt. My health & relationships come first from now on as they make me truly happy.

    No matter how well I am doing with regards money I don't stay happy for long as there is always something else to think about which sets me back both financially and mentally so.....stuff it. I can't worry about it any more, I have to do what I can and be careful not to add to debt but that's it, stressing about it anymore is not an option.

    Anyway keep on keeping on Moozie and wahay for custard doughnuts!
