Feeling so down in the dumps today about the money situation...

I can clear my debts eventually, I know this. I am just getting so isolated and bored. I live quite a distance away from my friends and so it costs to even just go and see someone for a coffee. I haven't been for a night out in so long.

I live alone, and spend alot of my working week working alone, and its all getting a bit much.

Ho hum...

Chin up hunny look how far you have come
Its always a little overwhelming at the start if you can clear the loan in 4 months could you make token payments to the water and electric bill, then throw the spare money at other debts. Just a word of warning eon doubled my DD without telling me last year which left me skint I would wait for a payment card that way you control it.

You dont need to feel down when you have so many new friends on here

Thanks HWG

I didn't really want to do the direct debit with eon, but the bloke on the phone thought I was lying about the payment card not arriving. I had rung up once before about it not arriving, so they have it on the system that two have been sent out, but I have received neither.

If I carry on the way I am going then the debts will be cleared in the next few months, I will just shrivel up and become a hermit!

The dog is appreciating the new budget however as he is having his little legs walked off as free entertainment!

Why not get your friends to join you on your walks sell it to them as good exercise LOL

They live too far away

One comes every 6 weeks or so, and another one I see every couple of weeks for a walk but I have to travel over to hers.

Just found out I need major car repairs too, not good!!

Think you need to make some local friends maybe dog walking buddies
Im just arranging to meet all my friends for a long walk with a hot choc at the end tomorrow gets us away from the usual chores and gives us all a chance to catch up.
Hope the car doesnt cost too much fingers crossed

I've blown it today

Went food shopping and bought way too much. I now have to make it last a month.

I also need to get two new car tyres tomorrow.

My budget is tight as it is and tyres dont come in to it

Wellyboots6

Now in a major panic!!

Thought I needed a new back tyre, turns out my brakes are destroyed. Would cost me £550 to fix, although the car is nowhere near worth that amount.

I cant afford to fix the car but cant afford a new car.

I also need the car for work, tomorrow

Totally, totally stuck!!

Managed to take the week off work as holiday, so got a bit of breathing space to come up with a solution. Luckily!!
