I'm sure they'd love to hear all about your new job! lol!

Righty folks, I've started a thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=491515
I'm now giving myself specific targets to meet each week to help get me out of my situation. I'm currently waiting for the housing association taking me to court over my debts and evicting me because I've been in constant arrears for six months. I've got debts with the council tax and inland revenue, and Scottish power have now sent a letter saying they'll be comming out to disconnect my power supplies. I can't let it happen and I won't let it happen. This is MAJOR pulling up socks time!
I'll be posting my pledge weekly and sticking to it. Every week I'll start a new pledge thread so that others can pledge too.

Note to self.
No more coffee after 11pm
Drinking coffee at 05.00 is a pretty daft Idea.
Time for bed, ZzzzzzzzzzzDebt free since 2014 - now saving for a mortgage deposit :heart2:

Hi there, have missed your diary so far, but just read through and will be catching up again later.

Cheers dude. I'm still awake though
I'll probably go for a nap at noon or sooner, once I've done a few bits and bobs.

Aaaand I'm still awake :eek:
Anyway. I got my user ID and pin for my phone work....but I completely bottled out of it tonight. Maybe because I'm tired, maybe because I'm worried about the effect it may have on my boyfriend. I asked him if he minded me doing this (No, I NEVER seek a mans permision to do anything, but as my boyfriend he does deserve to have an input and have some respect shown to him) and he said it's ok, but should he feel odd about it at any point then he'll let me know.
So anyway. I'll need to start the phone today if I'm to meet my minimum target of £72 for next pay day.
I'm tired......yet still drinking coffee :mad:
Can someone please come over and steal my kettle and coffee, please?Debt free since 2014 - now saving for a mortgage deposit :heart2:

Also, get some decent decaff coffee. I only drink caffeine before 12 and only decaff after that otherwise sleeping is very difficult. Put it on your shopping list now!!!
Good luck with the phone work today. Once you have done the first couple you will be fine. Think of the money xSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -

I totally need to start buying decaf and quit the caffeine all together. I get horribly addicted to caffine and it messes with my sleeping and skin.Also, get some decent decaff coffee.

I need to quit caffeine. I can't remember what time I made it to bed, but I woke up at 4.30pm after a stint of being awake for 42 hours. Eugh.
My head is pounding, I'm aching all over and I feel drained. So tonight
I'm going to bed at 10.30pm and I'll be sticking to this for a while! Due to
the way I'm feeling I'm not going to take any calls today, but instead start tomorow once I've rested properly and woken at a reasonable time of day! I've not even had the energy to update the thread I started on weekly pledges, but I ought to do that before going to bed, if not for myself but for other members too.
Today (for the few hours I've been awake) has been a no spend day, *looks at hotmail inbox* no comps won, no free samples arrived and so far no clicks.
Off to do my clicks now.
