Thanks Dawn, it all went well, when I got home I saw she has transferred the £25 into my account.
So just paid the £25 over to NEXT.

Hi Steph
Been a tough few days with your son, we worry so much about our kids. Hoping all sorts itself out. So pleased all going well for you with the treatments. You deserve it.0 -
Oh Steph how marvellous it is to read you diary
you flaming genius!
I bet your son was just all over the show going back to school, one poor kid threw up with nerves and some else fainted today. I felt so bad for them. I don't know why but schools are getting so stressy for the kids...
Really impressed with your dealing and head massagingBRILLIANT!
hope you had a good evening tonight and a fab weekend XXXNevertheless she persisted.0 -
Thanks guys for your lovely replies.
The spa paid tonight as well, so have paid £107.50 off the NEXT bill.
Hubby has gone to his skittles match but i am celebrating with some left over old gin and flat tonic :beer::rotfl:.
After three treatments today, I was quite exhausted, but feels amazing to finally be able to speed up the process and contribute some real money myself.
If some minor miracle happened and I managed to earn £100 for the next three weeks of September + the usual £120 monthly payment, I could kill off the NEXT bill THIS MONTH :eek::cool:
I will try not to spend the money before I have even earnt it though, so will try to calm myself down
Hope you are all having a nice evening xxx0 -

Ooops I got so excited about my debt repayments that I forgot to let you know that the worries with Ds seem to have passed.
He said his week at school was an 8 out of 10, which isn't bad in my book. I also offered Ds to move a spare bed into his sisters room. He could keep his bedroom but just sleep upstairs when he wanted and he didn't want to!!. After all the fuss he caused the other night.
Well he can't say i didn't try to solve his problems. Think you guys were right, he was just sleep stalling :wall:

Hi steph!
Just getting caught up with your diary, you're doing brilliantly!
We had to put a new rear brake calliper on our car as well (along with filters a tyre a service and an mot! Oh and it will need a clutch soon too) luckily OH's brother is a mechanic and does all the work for free so we just have to pay for parts
however he lives in Sussex so me and the kids 'had' to go on a mini holiday
we stayed with the grandparents and ate their food and I had saved up for it with boot fair profits
also a friend of mine works for €uro car parts and can buy bit at cost+vat so got them cheap for us
Good work with the debt busting and well done with all the spa work, seems that course was the best thing to do after all
It's good that your son has got over the school worries, I thought kids would grow out of stalling bedtimes but obviously not!
J starts school on Tuesday! Her first ever day! She's going to look so cute in her oversized uniform lol
