    Hey Mara hun....Thank you for coming and checking on me....

    Nothing made for Council Tax as of yet but hopefully soon....I just HAVE to get it sorted otherwise I'm going to be in BIG trouble with the Bailiffs!! I WILL sort it....Just have to work really hard.

    Didn't manage to stay awake for the all-nighter last night so I'm going to work today during the day instead.....I am just sooooooo tired all the time....but I think some of that might be to do with my weight....if I'm really honest....

    I DO find it hard to Study and don't always manage it....but as long as I go to the Lectures and my Placement that is the main thing....but I DO have to start reading a lot more than I am right now....

    Just waiting for my Grandma to ring me to say if they are coming over to where I live for Lunch....I'm planning on going with them if they are....so we'll see....And then back to Work, Work, Work!!

    Had weird dreams last night....I dreamed that I had to get rid of lots of rotten food....it was all over my bed and I had to get it into bin bags and drag it downstairs....Very weird...Not sure what to make of that!!

    Anyway....that's my Update as of now....Catch you all later xXx

    Helen, my dear, i am going to come down hard. ! Why havent you raised anything extra ? You said you could and you were going to. The bailiffs wont listen to excuses, they will just take anything worth selling that you have, and it will go for peanuts and you will still be left with the debt.
    Time to extract the digit, youre an adult, take responsibility for yourself.
    Im sorry if you think im being harsh, but dammit woman, i kinda care about what happens to you !
    Ill go away now and wait for someone to yell at me for being a bully. :(
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Mara hun I'm not going to yell at you....I think you're absolutely right....My only excuse this Week is that I have been very busy on the Course and just haven't got my act together this Week...

    I have until the end of June to make as much money as I can towards the Council Tax....so that's what I'm going to do....I can only do as much as I can do....

    I know you care....and I really appreciate that....

    I have logged on for the Night now.....and that feels like a BIG step forwards....Just got to get on with it now....

    Yep, you are right....once the Course has finished on Tuesday I can really start to do some serious Work!! :D

    But yes, the Council Tax will be the first to go....

    I'm also expecting some money back from the Tax Credits people who didn't pay me enough last Year....so that will also go towards the Council Tax....So fingers crossed it will be paid off in the next 3-4 Weeks....and there won't be any need for the Bailiffs!!

    Work going slowly tonight....but I'll get there....Just taking a break at the moment....logging back in at 5am....

    Dear helen, you do know that you dont stand a chance to fail, you have a dragon and a scots woman as supporters !
    Today has been a successful day at mine, kitchen units all cleaned, extra shelves fitted, whole downstairs hoovered and half a dog removed from the vac bag ! How my dog isnt bald, i dont ken !

    Washing mostly dry despite showers, and two hours of paperwork done, all bills paid and filed away.

    The energy has now vanished and its time to swadge on the sofa after dinner and watch crap tv ! Lol

    Good luck for work . X:j:j
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Thanks hun....I appreciate your Support even though I keep on screwing up....I WILL get there eventually!! Just have to keep on plugging away....

    Am starting Work at 8pm cause that's when the money goes up....and (apart from loo breaks) I'm not taking a break until I've earned the money I need to earn...
