    S.A.D - and proud of it!!.... Paying a debt off by Xmas: CC2 :xmastree:
  • Morning all well payday has arrived .. Well it has arrived it doesn't mean the money has Grr!!

    Anyway paid todays debt payments, and will pay the rent and CT as soon as the missing money is sorted. Starting to think I've cut it abit to tight having every penny accounted for as soon as it comes in.

    Really need to do the food shop before I go home today so going to feed then bath the kids and get on with the shopping x
  • Okay money sort of sorted.

    Rent paid but now I have to pay this weekly, so I'm gonna be very short between now and next payday, not sure how I'm going to do this yet.

    On the other side my rent arrears are £824 not the £1344 I thought.

    Its a very long story, where things where messed up at the start, and I owed money from the last time I was in supported housing :o

    I'm hoping I will able to move from here to a proper house without the support when my arrears are straight.

    Yay ive caught up with your new diary and you have really inspired me to be dedicated to mine again... its thats time of year again when things are harder isnt it. Your meals are sounding sooooooooooooooo nice... and look at the change in them since last year!! Last year was bleak, this years meal i wanna join you haha. Provident loans? are they the door stop collection ones? im worrying about you having these because i watched a documentary last week about them turning up to collect payment and offering even more loan so you are tied in forever... and they seem to know when yr stuggling and play on it :S thought id mention so i will sleep right lol xxx
