    Also its stressful i know but try now to let it pick away at your relationship, as you have said the norm is that your relationship is solid, it still is just try not to get on at each other.

    Its very sad that life revolves so much around money although love costs nothing i know one thing is for sure other than love try and get anything without money, You Can't!

    As for the shopping well done, itys quite hard to start with isn't it. i am into my first week and doing really well hopefully i can stay motivated to keep it up.

    A friend of mine recently moved to Australia, she is a nurse. She has had to prove that she could keep herself money wise just incase her job ended.
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?
  • Thanks chunky :)
    I'm an Aussie citizen and my kiddies will be as soon as I get them registered, OH will be able to get a spouse visa, so it's pretty straight forward :j

    Things are looking up a bit for us! :beer:

    Got rid of one car, so thats at least £50pm saved :T
    Managed to secure a remortgage with our own bank(I'm quite amazed that they approved it so :T for them) This will take a month or two but from then on, we will be saving £83pm on our mortgage :D Finally, a "normal" mortgage, not a sub prime one! It's 2% lower.


    We are still in a LOT of debt but we are starting to get somewhere, finally...
    I also have a job interview next week for nightshift work, it's for only 10 hours a week but there is a chance of extra hours if i get it(I'm work on a sunday just now and have 2 littlies, so am fulltimeish mum)

    WISH ME LUCK PLEASE :D
