Hello!!!!
Well, the divorce is going through, had a mad couple of months - had to rebuy the entire contents of the house so saving and op hasn't been property. feel like finally getting to the other side now though. Starting scrimping again for the next couple of months. applying for a new job ( Same money) closer to home today. everything seems to much better. daft as it sounds I feel like a weigh off my chest. although sociallising is seeming expensive. on the positive having a water meter fitted today as didn't see the point in paying the standard for just me who is never at home anyway. also fingers crossed I am getting pennies back off eon coz they seemto have not billed me for 12 months. oh and I am looking at remortaging so any advice would eb great.

Hi. You sounds a bit churpier (is that a word?!) than your last post. Glad things are sorting themselves out. Socialising is a must right now... Expensive or not, it's cheaper than therapy :dance::dance:Mortgage starting balance 2011 ... £170k today £1.5k

Hello!!!!
well I am seriously ebaying atm, and making my little house feel like my own again. I have also sorted the mortage out and fixed it for 5 years . When I rung to see how much I owed I had a very nice surprise £132540 , that's nine thousand off it in 2 years.
After the year from hell, I am determined that next year will be a new start and back to my frugal ways.
think I really needed to get it out of my system and buyt stuff to make me feel better. The hair is died dark , and I am now not going for it done till the new year, I have more clothes than a department store , and I am using up the freezer. I knew that I couldn't rush myself into doing something when I wasn't comfortable doing it.
Fingers crossed I will get a job close to home its on the 16th the interview that will save £400 a month in fuel.
cant belive where the time is flying OH still hasn't accepted the offer I made, but that's life.
I have been to see a Reiki lady this week and feeling better from it, it may be mumbo jumbo but you know what I am finding out who I want to be, I have got into readying, walking relaxing and enjoying life. I am finally back to being me.
I have also done stoptober, no takeaways or alcohol for a month and lost 1/2 stone.....
thinks are on their way up!!!!
