I haven't posted in a while, I had a really busy period at work and to be honest I completely forgot about this thread!
So what's been happening.... Well unfortunately I've had an accident - I tripped over a handbag and fell through a glass table :eek:
The glass went through my wrist and I've cut the tendons and nerves controlling my hand, I had to have a operation on Wednesday to repair the damage, so I'm feeling very sorry for myself at the moment.
Because of the nature of my job they have signed me of work for 4 months whilst I undergo physio etc - I've only had 2 days at home so far and already going nuts ( I'm a mentally active person) not sure how I'm going to cope with this all if I'm honest.
On the money front, I've blown it - I'm back in debt and that is probably going to get worse too:(Save £12k in 2025 #32Make £2025 in 2025 #28

Hi 1stTimer. Sorry to hear about your accident. maybe you can turn this forced time off into a MSE opportunity?
Sell anything else you can find that you no longer need on-line, complete lots of on-line surveys, enter loads of free competitions, read every debt busting blog you can find to get you back on track, go running everyday so you feel fitter, etc.
Good luck with the recovery and debt. Consider me subscribed :j0
