    You’ve every right to be annoyed with your hubby, all that hard work paying the card off then he goes and builds it back up again. 

    I hope you get the places filled to cover the ones leaving. Also hope the re-mortgage finally gets sorted.

    These things are sent to try us, some of us more often than others. 
    I've actually been saying someone up their must be having a laugh at my expense to see how far they can push me before I flip out......been close a couple of times hopefully this is the end of all this nonsense coming at me at the same time, I'll just be taking it one problem at a time......it's all I can do as I'm only one person.

    I actually told my hubby yesterday I am actually sick of being the only responsible one, not directly aimed t him but I'm dealing with the remortgage, saving as much money as I can in order to make our house nicer on the outside, managing my business, clearing out my grans house slowly and getting it on the market in the next couple of months as well as dealing with the paperwork coming out my ears regarding my grans care........it's never ending, I think  I need to hire an assistant  :D

    I don't know how you do it all, you definitely need an assistant!

  • You definitely need more support.

    I can’t believe your husband has gone and used the credit card again. I’m sure it was only a couple of months ago when you found out he had a chunky balance on it and you cleared it for him. I’m sorry if this is out of line but it’s so disrespectful of him to do that again. I really feel for you!

    He ran the credit card bill up buying Xmas stuff and he said he’s been paying it back which he has but only minimum payments ..........he’s not getting it back that’s for sure xx

    Just caught up Abba, 
    What a rollercoaster but so pleased that the mortgage is back on, your Gran has remembered a few bits and you got to see her and an amazing amount saved up already. 
    Great news about filling the place from the child that has given notice as well. Gaining an extra hour is definitely a positive and hopefully you'll make up the other £42 in other ways. 
    Have a lovely weekend. I hope you have some nice relaxing planned! 
    Actually the parent who gave me notice has actually begged for me to cancel her notice period so I’m not losing any money in fact I’ll be £62 a week better off by taking on my morning mindee 2 days a week and a after schooler for two days a week, more pennies for savings xx

    The wee one is slotting right into what I already work and I would drop him off at his little brother nursery as I walk past this nursery at 12.45pm when I'm taking my other mindee to a different nursery so slots in perfectly and it's only until August.
