    well done on standing up for yourself. I agree that life is too short!

    Thanks everyone for your kind messages still not quite sunk in what I have done but im sure it will all be fine.
    Trying very hard to stay motivated but just not been in the mood this weekend

    1. sort spreadsheets - All done we are not going to be debt free by the end of the year but im hpping 80% will be gone
    2. ebay ebay ebay its free listing I must do this -I have been listing but nothing like I used to already made a sale £15 profit 37 items listed so far
    3. Iron - we now have our very own mountain - All done :A
    4. Put some plans in place for the next 6 months - sort of who knows whats going to happen I am going to try and earn some extra each month. Still needs work
    5. Start daily posts to keep me motivated - Failed already missed yesterday

    I have also got myself booked on a training course and if all goes to plan after our summer holiday I will have the potential of earning an additional income, probabaly not enough to clear the 20% of debt left but it should help :T
    Last week at work and im a little sad I will miss my friends I have booked a day off as I need to go to the new company for a training day. I have also worked out I should be ok moneywise as I have only had 5 days holiday in 6 months so Im owed a bit of holiday pay and some overtime. I should get that on 24th then 3 weeks money from the new company on 30th June.

    i would say that paying off 80% of the debt by the end of the year would still be a pretty major achievement so go you!

    Keeping at it I have one bid on ebay so far £10 so all going in the right direction. Work has been another strange day today seems I have started something everyone is unhappy and talking of leaving now, I have my leaving interview tomorrow hopefully someone will ask me why im leaving as I never put that in my letter and so far nobody knows.
    Has anyone tried grazebox I have ordered my free sample today after I saw a friend used it all the time.
    Statements due tomorrrow so I will make some more payments once I know what the interest is.

    Interview over and yes I said everything i needed to, we also completed this form where it had a comments box. I asked who read this form and was told no one it just goes on you file needless to say I left it blank not wasting my time on it. Im in tomorrow but off Thursday and I think Friday will be CBA day they owe me one if they think they know what I do they can fugure it out for themselves as im not going in I emptied most of my drawer tonight and I will say a quiet goodbye to those I made friends with tomorrow but the rest I will be glad to see the back of.
    Money wise not much happening I do have some TCB money due so when thats cleared in paypal I will have about £30 for Lloyds.

    Hi HWG

    Glad you got to say your piece; we have exit interviews here as well, but again they are just a 'tick in the box' and they just sit on file. A waste of everyone's time.

    Do you start your new job on Monday?

    You sound sad? Hope your ok x
