    Hello :waves

    It has been way to long since I last posted!

    Things have changed a little in the Hinge household but we seem to be on a up, fingers crossed.

    Today I have

    Left overs for lunch, jacket tatties in oven to avoid a take away tonight!

    Washing on the line in between showers, washed over night on cheap rate

    Baby in cloth to save ££ on s'poses

    Begun searching for cheaper Ouse insurance as mines due in the. Ext few days.

    Feels good to be back! Hope everyone is well.... Now what did miss?! Lol

    i have a few things to do so i'm hoping for the first time that the rain carrys on tomorrow so i dont go out but do it
    • check on line bank not done yet
    • sort out my pile of letters as being throwing them down into a pile and its getting a bit high :mad: woohoo done just taking ages to shred as shredder keeps going off to cool down
    • write some letters to a couple of companies i owe money too, in hope of paying some money a month, i was thinking of £5 dd and then maybe paying a bit more each month through their internet page not done yet
    • sort out the house (who needs the gym) did half last night
    • if its not raining i will put the washing out to line dry tried to but the rain started
    • nsd did it :money:
    • sort out car insurance as missed dd and now saying want it in full but there is no way i can do it :eek: all sorted
    • need to update signuature too still need to do
    i'm hoping that in August that it will be the first time in months i dont get any returned dd so no charges, i have my fingers so tightly crossed


    happy sunday everyone, what a day sorted out all letters etc took ages and also did some ironing but meant it was a nsd, the only bad thing is found an open letter for oh so me being me opened it and found the bank account that he open 2 years ago and only used a few times before he went od with it now stands at over £3,500 shocked is not the word as it is all the daily charges at £6 per day and it all started by going od by £1.50 :mad:
    hope this doesnt sound evil but I know once you are married you should help each other but for once i'm going to worry about my debts first

    OMG one-day :eek::mad::eek: not sure what to say. I would be so angry with my oh if he did this. Is there anyway he can get some of it written off? Seems ludicrous to have a £3500 debt because of £1.50
