Well yesterday I was feeling down, today I feel ecstatic. A company I had an interview with last week rang and said I had the job. It is 25 hours a week and in between school hours, so I can take and collect my older son from school and take my youngest in a few weeks when he starts nursery. Only about 3 hours a day childcare, so things starting to look up. I start on Monday.
Now time to start concentrating on the debt. Then in a few months I will tackle the high mortgage payments and get a better deal. I am going to put it all in my signature and will keep you all updated.
Thanks againBlind as you run...aware you were staring at the sun.
And when no hope was left inside on that starry starry night.

Still feeling on top form at the moment. This site really keeps me focused. A couple of days ago we applied for a Morgan Stanley CC as it was on 3.9% until 2010, and will definitely clear the debt by then. Had a letter this morning saying we had been accepted, just need to know the credit limit. As long as it is about £2200 that will be great as the Capital One card can be cut up and the account can be closed. Paying far too much interest on that one.
I have also been selling a few things on Ebay and now have about £50 in there to pay off the debts. I will leave it until the end of the month though to build it up.0 -
Just an update from me. Thought I would keep it all together on this thread. The job I had has been ok, but only £6 an hour and not getting much work given to me as I am temping for a bit until they take me on permanently. Think they are scared I am going to leave as they have had 12 temps in 6 months. Anyway this week I had an interview for a job that I applied for when I was off work. It went really well and I came away really wanting the job. The salary was £6-£7 an hour, I got a letter yesterday offering me £7.75 an hour, so they must really think I suit the job. I am so happy that I want to shout from the roof tops.:j I will give a weeks notice and then start this job.
As for the debt, I have made a bit on Ebay, and car boot sales and got my debt now down to £15359.38. That is over £500 off my debt this month. I have been using the cashback sites and selling more on ebay, so will try and do well again in November and December.
Thanks for all the support.:beer:
I am off to change my signature now.0
