Good luck

In the words of some old crooner - what a difference a day makes

Thanks misspoppy, am trying to get him on board, he seems to live in a little world of his own though, what i have been doing is reading some of the threads that are inspiring me, difficult 2nite man utd ontv:mad: Think some of it is sinking in,trying to point out we are not alone and some people are worse off than us, and not just financially!

LOL. Can't believe how i feel today, seem to have a bit of hope, although don't think we will ever clear the debt! And i know we will have bad days, at least i can get it off my chest here, (doesn't help starting menopause early so have down days anyway:rotfl: ) Thanx Gemmzie

Is there away i can find my thread quickly it seems to take me ages

Mrs_Weasley

Went to get money out of bank for nursery and car repairs tomorrow and there was £30 extra in, looked back at bank account and its all correct, must have miss calculated somewhere! So tomorrow will have some left after i've taken the rest of the money out for car repairs!:D

SPENT TODAY

9.57 macdonalds (won't be doing that again the monsters didn't eat it!)
5.36 lidl (bread milk marg tissues juice sweets)
4.32 cigs (i know)
1.95 bus fare ( didn't know it was so much)
_____
21.20

Way too much, not going to macs again:mad: I have decided my kids are spoilt (see above), who am i kidding i've known that for a long time, so have explained to them that if they want something ie sweets or toys they have to earn the money and save it to pay for things themselves;) will save some 20ps for that.
This way they are also learning about saving for things and don't make the same mistakes we have made Just got to stick to it!

Have managed to get a lift from my darling daddy to and from work so have saved some money there.

Got my neighbour on board sort of, she has no computer so i am passing on hints and tips, her husband left her just before xmas with 4 children!!!!

£100 for a book!!! what is the subject 'moneysaving' lol!!! I love spending money too (thats really bad isnt it) but I do some unshopping too - feeling guilty when I have bought things and taking them back for refund, still bad but better than keeping them (just probably annoying for the shops!) your way is definitely better I will try that next time I am tempted!

By the way, Dewsbury is not that bad!, I have done a couple of car boots at the market there, there is another member on here from there - Tinytot, she posts on here quite a bit.

I am having a not too bad day at work today, I dont have a lot to do so thats why I am on here (naughty naughty!!)

Just got in from work had sh#t day since last post, dad rang couldn't take me to work, taxi cost £4, he couldn't pick me up either and my miserable selfish brother (my boss) didn't offer to take me home :mad: , taxi cost £5! Am now very cheesed off:mad: "THE BOOK" Status Quo (the band!) limited edition, a must have:rotfl:

Used to do my car boots at Dewsbury rugby, but if i go with someone else to Dews market the tables big enough to share so we split the cost! I seem to have become a car boot buddy for everyone in the area i live.

Am from Mirfield originally and find Dews v depressing wish i could go back, guess what? can't afford to move:rotfl:
