My 10 positive steps today are:

1. Nice clean house DONE
2. Apply for jobs and post application form that I have
3. Post item I sold on ebay and post my important letter LETTER SENT
4. Write to barclays bank for my partner about an old default he needs to settle and post this too DONE
5. Get my partner a free trial on equifax so I can monitor both our BAD BAD BAD credit scores and make them better DONE
6. Sort out all the clean washing and put it away
7. Take the cat out for a walk YES THE CAT
8. Write a letter of complaint to k and co and post
9. Ring tax credits
10. Make a spreadsheet to keep mine and my partners finances, debts and expenses in order

I am hoping within 2 years our credit scores will be much better so that we can HOPEFULLY buy a little house. So fingers crossed I will get a job this week so we can settle our debts, build up our credit and start to save for a deposit xx

Can I gloat?! The only reason the touch up stick hasn't been done is the car manual and documents don't say which shade of silver the car is... apparently it could be one of three which I frankly find unbelievable.
