Men eh! Hope you can both sort things out. I have serious trust issues with OH (past history!), it's not nice. Hope you can get together and sort it.

Sorry to hear about the cat.xx

I echo the above sentiments, hugs honey I know it must feel like 1 step forward, 2 steps back at times.

Hope cat is ok and happy birthday celebrations to little ones x

Perhaps when you serve him up a dinner of just a steak as no veg or potatos he might realise - long shot i know! Guess you will be doing the food shopping from now on.

Sorry to hear about your mums cat - horrid thought to think someone may have done this on purpose

Evening xx

Mum's cst passed away, kidney and heart failure and I think the shock of it plus the pain he must have been in just finished him off mum is super upset you'd have honestly thought it was one of her children. ..I don't know how to console her really and my sister who was in tears down the phone. I've had migrained non stop since yesterday and just generally feeling very blah ...can't even deal with the husband mess right now as feel zonked from tablets/emotionally drained from trying and failing to help mum .

Party and bbq tomorrow really not in mood but it'll go ahead as planned with or without sun (not here at all today? ??) I've got a new film to watch tonight called the impossible (downloaded for free) and bed for me! Hope everyone is well xx

Thank you all for popping in, it really means a lot well I have some money news today. Bout time I guess seeing as though this diary is on a money saving forum :rotfl:. I've bought my car insurance for the year outright :j I spent all morning on the phone to companies that aren't on comparison sites. Checked all comparison sites also *took so long* and couldn't find a cheaper quote anywhere. So called my current one up said i'd like to pay outright instead of installments and that saved me £40 :money: and then as it was going through he said oh another £30 has come off! He said sometimes it happens so not to question it and everything I had wanted included was there so :j yippee I was happy with that :T £299 for the year

Then we got the post and we had a letter each from v@nquis. They are accepting our offers to pay the debt off :T these are two of our smaller debts but I don't mind. 2 creditors down.....many more to go! They have however said they will mark our settlement as 'partial settlement' after googling this it appears that this could affect our credit rating for 6 years. But I can't find any info on whether they will ever chase us for the rest? I'm assuming not but really want to be sure on this so will call SC at some point.

It was DD & DS2 birthday party this weekend and they had great fun! I chose the right morning for soft play as it was overcast and horrid weather so wouldn't have made a great garden party in that ....but after for the bbq the sun came out just in time :T am still thoroughly disappointed in DH for spending close to £220 on bbq stuff and inviting complete strangers (to me) I ate one burger and one rib all day. I was starving by the end of it. Seems hosts never get to sit down and enjoy the day or eat. And the house. Well I think it needs renaming STY. Not happy. It's trashed especially the kids room. Things have been broken and some things are atm missing (hoping to find them!!!) and I refuse to clean it right now as i'm still so angry.

Tax credits have gone up each month so I am hoping to save money for car tax for the whole year and also towards insurance for next year now. I've booked panto tickets with emergency money (tut tut I know) and we've also just serviced and MOT'd the car for £220. But DH paid for it as I wasn't even talking to him at the time

Today and tomorrow are left of the school term and then they are on holiday. So need to sort house out asap! My iron levels feel very low again though and i've lost 3 lb i think because i've hardly eaten anything over the last few days so am expecting it to go back on (boooo) fingers crossed it doesn't though :rotfl:

Anyway pizza time & spiderman 3 with the littlest dfw. I will miss him come September when he goes to school so making the most of our last 2 mornings together :T:D

Glad everyone (well almost) had a good time at the parties - i am guessing you will also be doing the food shopping from now on. Congratulations on a few debts being finalised

Agree with sim, DFW, you MUST do the shopping!

Onwards and upwards...xx
