Odd coincidence. I don't think my OH's money issues are connected though
Well let's just say I've watch enough Spendaholics to think psychology plays a big part. To be fair to DH he had 2 heart attacks before the age of 40 so he might have a point :eek:. But I don't want to be cleaning up the mess for him if it happens, I'd rather we did it together now.

Poor thing babble, well come home tired out bought some new lenses after shooing about so there goes £50. However was getting fed up glasses in bed so out my sleeping in contacts.
Well made another payment today. Hubby on other computer with the spreadsheet so need update later but bit the bullet and reduced the aqua credit limit by £150. To be fair could have done more but waiting till today's payment hits and intrest so I don't want to go over the limit. Had a colleague with me today so had to get the coffee in today. The plus point is he has to get them in tomorrow!0 -
Jemma - hope you feel better soon *hugs*
I sympathise with those who have OH's who overspend and don't seem to want to take responsibility for money. Mine, although not quite so extreme, does have tendencies for this and it drives me mad!
Kerri - hope your gas is sorted soon. I'm not going for the 2min shower thing as I know that I can't do it - our shower takes a while to heat up so I can't keep switching it on and off but I'll try the 10 sec water whilst teeth cleaning onePay debt in 2012 #278 £2347/£5364

Jakes mum just been re reading the last few pages.
Just seen the post about the 40% mark> I was so frustrated when I got to that point you get frustrated trying to see if you can squeeze a penny any where!0 -
Home, pasta eaten. Got wrong for playing on laptop but a 4 hour meeting with a ten minute break is just too much for me. I have another tomorrow
watching The Voice Australia (love Delta so much) and then sleep for me.

Nice... my 'friends' have just tagged themselves out, again, without inviting me. I just commented saying feel free to invite me sometime girls, i haven't dropped off the planet.
Getting sick of it now... everyone knows I'm not at work and yet I never hear from any of them.Became Mrs Scotland 16.01.16Became homeowners 26.02.16

Babble, If I was any closer I'd be coming round for movie night! But look at how well you are doing, nearly to the last two grand. You have race for life coming up!0
