  • Well hubby got his wage slip today and his tax will be paid back this month :j
    So aim for this month (well next month March)is this;

    Hubby overtime = £250
    Hubby tax= £550
    Council tax free month= £137
    Money saved= £180

    = £1117
    + Any extra i get= ??
    So debt will be at least £1423 for March :D:D:D:D:D

  • Today i'm feeling :( , really down and depressed to the point where i'm not going to work tomorrow as i really cannot face it :(
    I've had some personal stuff going on in the last 2 months and i think it may have all caught up with me now.
    I feel like having a good scream. No idea why i'm posting this here, i think it just helps getting it written down and where better than my online diary...
    I can't put my finger on it, just have this feeling in my chest and a sense of anxiousness and almost foreboding. Strange as i'm not normally one for depression but the best way to describe would be a dark cloud hovering over my head right now. :(
    I hope i can snap out of this soon as it's really getting to me now.

    Hello Sista,

    Firstly thanks for your kind comments.

    I really hope you are begining to feel better today, sounds like things have caught up with you, and you need some time out just for you, so I hope you are having a well earned rest day today.

  • Hi Fae and wantabetterlife, not feeling a great deal better but i'll cope :)
    Hubby wants to go away for a weekend in April and i'm trying to convince him we can't afford it! Last debt payments hopefully will be end of March, so eating up Aprils budget. Hubby is of the mindset that 'another month won't hurt' but i want it gone sooner rather than later :(
    Hubby gets paid tomorrow so my sig will look a lot better :D This is the only thing making me :D at the moment. Just feeling a bit low :(

  • £975 paid off today :D Debt now at £1565. Have managed to bring the DFD down to April too :T:T
    Should (fingers crossed) be able to pay another £600 off this month, all going well. This depends how much i get paid on Friday.....
    April will be the last month of scrimping and paying off debt :cool: can't blummin wait :D

  • Thanks :kisses: 93% paid :D:D:cool:
    £140 paid today bringing the debt down to £1425. Payday Friday so that's the day i'll find out whether end of March or end of April will be our DFD :j

    Feeling a bit better today, a lot more positive which is good. Have a strong suspicion this dark cloud is depression :( Which is not like me at all. I just hope it's momentary and not longer lasting....
