Sorry the lurgy is still lingering though.

Grrrr is all I can say! Wont publish amounts but suffice to say that the CC's are BAD! Have been remiss, not paid more than mins and had alot of extra expenses so the total has gone up rather than down. Thankfully I will get a payment from car crash which will take it to an acceptable level (or rather acceptable to me level!) but I really need to get angry and crack at it as been drifting way too long.
We are off to Italy for Christmas which will be lovely but while were gone the soundproofing will be done on the flat and thats going to cost about £500 but will be worth every penny if the +++++downstairs will leave us in peace! Then there's cattery for the babies while we are gone but other than that wont spend a huge amount and presents done. Freezer and cupboards are full and mum is giving me money to help so that needs to come off debts rather than get swallowed by my account.
Ive just switched my bank account and will get £100 from that; Im due £200 from Godmothers estate and am going to sell my spinning wheel on fleabay. Much as I love it its taking up space and I rarely have time to use it so off she goes...fingers crossed I get a decent amount for it...also debating selling my Wii as never use it and its pretty much brand new; only problem is that loads of people are flogging them at the moment...
So there ya go; Im back and wonder whether I will ever get it and be debt free...I also will probably need to come up with £10,000 have my stomach stapled as have been turned down by the NHS twice now...ironically I'm apparently too healthy!Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1!

Hello
Sorry things arent as good as you hoped but there is enough postive stuff in there.

Thanks both..just need to stop the slippage and get back to debt busting ways...all in all its been a tough couple of years with a huge amount of emotional stuff, uncertainty and change and that's all I've been able to cope with so now that things are on an even keel its time to start sorting again. I dont know about you but I found (and find) debtbusting a huge energy drain so just coping with day-to-day events has been enough.
How are you bioth getting on? Will pop back in a bit after a snooze to catch up on you! Have decided that Im going to sort out £1000 at a time rather than look at the whole amount. Loans tick along nicely and will just ignore them and focus on the cc's...off to upload my siggy!Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1!
