    Hi im new today. I hope ive put this in right catagory.
    Can anyone understand that my Husband and i are in debt quite a bit and we have treid everthing to get out of it but hit a brick wall all the time. My husband works, i dont and we have 3 kids. We get housing benefit because we live in private rented accommodation. I would like to go to work either part/full time but what ever i earn the benefit will stop and we would be no better off. We would really like to get out of debt on our own but this is totally impossible. I tried self employment to help but got us further in it. Can anyone suggest anything please.
    Hi Mumof3Ls......

    Pop yourself back to the main Debt Free Wannabe and post a new thread, and loads of people will see you (not many read this tatty diary lol!)

    Yeah I do actually, DS does too! The only trouble is now, I have less time to do everything..... I always feel that sleeping on my day off is such a watse, but I obviously needed it!

    Do you know my motto???

    "never put off until tomorrow......"


















    "what you can quite reasonably leave til next week:rotfl: "

    Go easy on yourself hon, thats quite a list you have there. even knocking half of it off will leave the load lighter for you. ;) And if you didn't need to sleep your body would've woken you p sooner so in a way that was just as important, if not more so then getting the housework done. ;)
