    Hi Guys

    I don't know why I don't like posting on here when I'm down, my diary just seems full of doom and gloom at the moment and I don't think it makes interesting reading :o

    Had another rough day at work but I think I might hopefully be staying which will be a weight off my mind.

    I have had quite a productive weekend where I have been sorting out things to sell on e-bay and my dining table is nearly full, and that is just from the living room!! I know there is more so I will now have to start listing it. Sold 6 things already though and have another 12 listed, 3 with bids on. Some of them have already been re-listed twice but might just try once more for good luck.

    DD is spending a day at the school which she starts in September tomorrow, she is excited and nervous (and so am I). Was talking to another mum earlier who is feeling the same so fingers crossed things will be good for her and she will really enjoy it.

    I promise, promise, promise that I will have my outstanding debts listed this week so I know where I am. I have downloaded an app on my phone to try and keep a daily record of spends which I am hoping will be a bit of a wake up call to me.

    Hope you all have a lovely evening!!

    Take care.

    Hello Lil,
    You never sound gloomy, although I'm really sorry you're feeling that way. Is there anything in particular going on? I know it brings me down when I'm half in and half out of contact with someone I feel a lot for and with all the work unrest going on it's not an easy time for you. You do always sound like you make the best of things and move forward still, which is much better than I do when I'm feeling down.

    Do you have an iPhone app of budget tracking? I have one which I really rely on, although I always get a bit lost with it at the beginning of the month after I've been paid and a flurry of activity happens in my account. :o

    It's great to hear that you're just moving departments now, so hopefully your mood has settled and those worries are over.

    The man thing I can't help with I'm afraid as I'm exactly like you in wanting some contact. But I know that it's hard to move on and find someone new when you have someone you like in your life, even when they're not giving you what you need or deserve.

  • Hi Guys

    I know this is supposed to be my debt diary but I need to get all this out and this is where my friends are.

    I have had the worst weekend. To cut a long story short me and on off OH went out on Friday which turned into an argument and I said I had had enough. Then Saturday everything was fine. Sunday was good to (very good) and then tonight he drops the bombshell that Friday was the end of things.

    I am gutted and have cried so much tonight. But at least I know now and need to start looking forward. I am so upset tonight though.

    Oh Lil,

    I'm so sorry to hear how upset you are although I completely understand how you're feeling. You don't deserve any of this though. You deserve someone who will treat you as you should be treated and not blow hot and cold with you. Someone who will support you through good and bad and will appreciate the support you give.

    Please feel free to pm me if you need to talk and go through things. I'll always be happy to listen.

    Take care,

    MT x

    So sorry to hear that, I can't improve on Muffin's words -she has hit the nail on the head.

    All I can say is that the pain WILL pass, it won't be quick and it won't be easy but it will get better, I promise.

    Take care x

    Hi MT

    Thanks for the lovely post. It is a bit hard at the moment but I know I am better off. I need to stay away from my phone as I can't help putting little digs in. :(

    Roll on Friday, payday and a chance to get all my debts sorted out.

    Take care.

    Lil

    Hi LG

    I'm doing a lot better now thanks. I had some really good advice from MT which I have taken on board and need to just see how the next few days go. But after the weekend and some of the things that were said I really won't be going back to him.

    Onwards and upwards with a smile on my face :)

    Take care.

  • :(Hi Guys

    Well I'm feeling a lot better today, but who knows what tomorrow brings lol.

    I have had confirmation that I will be changing jobs in a fortnight so things are looking up at work. I think it is the best decision and move for me at the moment.

    I was watching an American program last night to do with lottery winners. Oh how I dream about winning the lottery lol. Its a roll over weekend this week so maybe a pound on a lucky dip. Got to be in it to win it :)

    I have sorted some of my bills out so I will update all this weekend and I have sold quite a bit on ebay but with me being a new buyer on there paypal are holding all of my money for a certain amount of time :( I have nearly £200 in there so I guess its good for a rainy day. Its my birthday in a couple of weeks so I might treat myself to a little something :)

    I have a bit of a busy day tomorrow but plan to have a relaxing one on Sunday so will catch up then.

    Take care.

    Lil
