    Hi,

    Thank you for the post :D

    It's been a long battle, but it's not over yet. Still slogging away :(

    Just having a read of your diary for some tips :D

  • Just an update

    I feel very sad :( For once it's not about my debt, but my life in general (so nothing major then!?)

    That is all

    :(

    What's going on GreenSaints? Has anything particular happened or are your just suffering from late January blues?
    Would writing it all out in your diary help?

  • I think I'm suffering from the January blues, but I'm not happy at work either, so that doesn't help.

    Just had a lovely heart to heart with my BF, so I feel a lot better. He annoys me but he is pretty amazing :p Anyway, I vent enough on here about my debt, you don't want to hear about the rest of my life! :p

    I think I'm also sad because, like you Jan, there's only a little bit of debt left (I'm ignoring my Student Loan and BOM loan from this statement) and it feels like all my effect is going into this last £1500 when I was clearing £100s a week last year!

    Oh well, just got to keep slogging away.

    Hope everything is ok with you? x

    I suppose if you are not happy at work, it will impact greatly on the rest of your life, and then any little problem at home like you BF annoying you, will be magnified. It's a hard time of year as is it without having other problems to deal with! £1500 is not very far to go and then you can relax a little - but I do understand how you feel: so close and yet so far.

    As for me, I'm fine. I'm just annoyed at myself for being awake so early and unable to get back to sleep! I've been tossing and turning in bed for the past hour and I know fine well I'm not going to sleep now and I'll be exhausted by midday! I'm usually a good sleeper but occasionally I have a bout of insomnia. I think I got over tired yesterday! (I'm just like a child really oh dear lol!)

    I'll carry on my rant on my own diary rather than high-jack yours ;)

  • I'm only joking that he annoys me, he's lovely.......but he can be annoying! :p We had a good chat about my job, money and the future. We would have never done this before going to counselling. I recommend that to anyone. If anyone is interested, Google 'Relate'

    I FINALLY got paid for my mystery shopping and my Amazon payment came, so that's £29.47 to my CC :)
