Wow, what an absolutley dreadful and emotionally exhausting day. Well I did my weekly shop, went to pay on credit card as planned to discover that the shop didnt accept credit cards
luckily I was with my grandma so she paid for me but then I felt my eyes prickly abit, you know when you feel like you may cry but you dont want to yet when you make all efforts to stop it just gets worse and worse, well that happened and then I ended up full on crying in the supermarker, cue being ushered to the car by my mum and grandma. Got home and I had more tears. I just dont know how long I can keep living like this for. I had my LBM in 2009 and we made good progress but since last May things have just turned and it feels like we are constantly fighting a losing battle - my hubs spent the afternoon trying to calm me down abit and reassure me it will be alright, but we've been saying that for the last 10 months now that I am beginning to wonder if it ever will be! pointless post really but I wanted to be honest in my diary and of course its a good place to offload as im far too embarassed to talk to anyone about this. Anyway early night for me - im exhausted x Snowballing my way out of debt!Catalogue [STRIKE]£1600 [/STRIKE] £1502 - Catalogue 0% [STRIKE]£900[/STRIKE] £860 - CC £2390 - OD £3500 - Family £1050 - Laptop £280.81 - Loan £3485.81 - Wescott £2814.56TOTAL OCT 12 £16021.18:eek:Member of the Sealed Pot Challenge #18400 -
Hope you're okay lady, things will sort out once you find your feet with the monthly wage etc, and now you've both got jobs which is a lot better than - from what i can gather - the best part of the past 10 months you talk of. Keep you chin up

Hello - had a bit of break, to be honest I knew I was gone a while but didn't actually realise how long until today! Anyway i've had a nightmare of a month, I went from weekly to monthly pay and it felt like I was waiting ageeeesss to get paid and then last week was payday only when I checked the bank it was empty and I hadn't been paid at all :O Mortgage, credit card, car tax etc all due and no pennies to pay anything. Spent all week ringing my manager and finally I got paid today so ive spent the day catching up on payments etc. Im hoping that now it can be smooth sailing for us! my main priority at the moment is snowballing and overpaying my catalogue. Hope everyone has been well and keeping up with the debt busting xxSnowballing my way out of debt!Catalogue [STRIKE]£1600 [/STRIKE] £1502 - Catalogue 0% [STRIKE]£900[/STRIKE] £860 - CC £2390 - OD £3500 - Family £1050 - Laptop £280.81 - Loan £3485.81 - Wescott £2814.56TOTAL OCT 12 £16021.18:eek:Member of the Sealed Pot Challenge #18400
