My first diary.. time to get in control
Comments
-
And here I am again - before I know it it will be January 2913 and my debt will be no better - am not coping at the moment am not on top of anything. When I'm off work for a few days I'm able to think clearly and get on top and plan but then work takes over and I don't look after myself properly, I don't budget etc I really need to do better with this or things will just spiral.
Tomorrow I will look at my diary and try and book a day off this week and next to get back ontop and sort myself out!
I'm permanently tired and stressed and this is exactly what happened last year- I started the year with good intentions and then dissappeared off into a land of work and stress for the rest of the year!! I will not let that happen this year- need to get on top of my accounts!!Baby due 4th May 2013

Well no luck with time off this week as I have meetings each day that are difficult to cancel.. But I have managed to write on here which at the very least means I'm not drifting too far.
I have some things I need to do- I need to send a cheque off and firstly find my cheque book. Secondly I need to put some cheques in the bank. This weekend I need to find my voucher did m and s worth 51 pounds as I'm desperate for some new work shoes! I also need to think about Neal planning - not done this for weeks!Baby due 4th May 2013
