In the Greens DFW diary

I am back!!!!

Well my home computer decided to die on the same day they banned personal useage at work completely.

Well I have been working hard at being more spending aware and intend to list my full expenditure at the end of this month for you to comment on.

I have been cooking from the fresh and not only have saved money but lost 7lbs, yeah.

HSBC have managed to send me 2 years of statements but have not sent anything since, only 15 days intil their 40 days is up.

Applied for a life of balance transfer barclaycard but they have been useless. So far they have lost my payslip and credit agreement, told me they'd sent out a letter they later admitted to never sending and have told me they can't tell me the content of their latest letter!!!

I have also been working on changing our utilities to the cheapest possible. If anyone has any good tips for oil central heating let me know

It funny but since I have been posting on here I have been far more open about being in debt and have been pleasantly surprised by most peoplesd responses.

I have worked out that I could pay off a significant amount of debt if I can hit target at work so am working hard to meet target by the end of December.

I have also taken on some more responsibility and have started some training that will put me in a great position to apply for a promotion when the job is created next year.

Keep going DFW onwards and downwards (in debt figure terms that is):T

ZTD

And how is the relationship going?

okay would be a summary. He still isn't pulling his respective weight, crunch time will come at the end of the month when I have had to bail him out in the past.

I think I have been a bit cold recently towards him which probably isn't the best way to go but hey ho. In my defence,it did follow another classic comment of as long as I pay my share into the joint you don't have to worry about how much debt I have! (he underpaid by £60 last month)

Anyway I am making a conscience effort to concentrate on the positives in life. My mum is a legend, my friends are lovely and my dog is still cute despite the muddy paws!
