small steps and a fresh start......my journey starts here

MiaowMiaow

Not a great weekend so far

My fridge freezer has given up and have had to throw loads of food away, also managed to rescue some and my mum had some space in her freezer.
This is why I need an emergency fund! and so far mine has £30 in it!! I get paid on Friday so will have to buy a new one then (my poor lodger moves in today aswell!). just dont quite know how i will manage for the rest of the month.
My washing machine is also playing up - not sure how much longer it will last :eek: . everythingf goes at once!!!
trying not to get down but its hard:(:(

I have listed 5 dresses on ebay which do not fit me any more yet I was waitingf to lose weight but that will not be happening any time soon!

Not done much revision as been crying over a man of all things!!!!! giving up altogether!!!!

so anyway at least (I hope!) things won't get any worse (touch wood) xxx

Hi Miaow, Hope you are feeling a little less fed up today, and have had a much better day.. some days you wish that you never got out of bed don't you (Well I know I do!!)....it never rains but it pours and one thing always happens after another, cliche but so true!!

I hope you can sort something out soon.....will your lodger be giving you a deposit? If so can it go towards a fridge freezer?

Sorry to read you were crying over a man, sending you a virtual hug....no man is worth crying over but we can't help ourselves can we? Hope you get that side sorted too hun....

To end on another cliche ! (gee I'm full of them today!!) Keep your chin up, things can only get better!!!!

What a few days!!!!
feeling much better, thanks for the virtual hugs:D:D

I have worked out that I can buy a new fridge freezer on Friday when I get paid and have enough to live off for the month - i will just have to pay a little less off my OD I am trying to prioritise.

My tenant arrived on Sunday and is lovely. I couldnt have got anyone better, we get along well, loads in common and will definitely be friends but also no awkwardness of feeling I need to talk to him all the time/ cook together etc, just quite relaxed so that is really positive:)

Revision is going slow but getting there!!

As for crying over a certain male, I am trying to distance myself from him and not text etc but iut is hard just not going to work at the moment

cannot wait for new fridge freezer and exam to be over!!!!!

when will your exam take place? hope it's not too long now. Glad your lodger has fitted in perfectly that must be a real challenge.

:j:j:jHey - payday for you too tomorrow, yippee!!!!

Glad to read you have a tennant you get on with well, hope that all works out ok.

Keep up the debt payments - remember as long as you are not adding to your debt you are winning. There will be months when you can't stick to your overpayments, but at least its not getting any bigger!

things to remember about car -

tax - already paid for , waiting for tax disc to arrive in post - arrived and paid
car insurance - due 14/9 started to look for good deals
mot - expires 07/09 need to book for next wkend

need new rear numberplate - check emails re having already paid for this? - sorted and has arrived

making progress!! Also fridge freezer purchased - was on sale plus bought via top cash back (6%) and found online voucher £40 off!!!! Very pleased! Went for a decent model so it will last, got a good bargain plus looks good and will match kitchen and what i want for the future decor xx

sounds like positive news all round especially with the fridge freezer.
