Evening all

Hope everyone has had a nice day, we went out for lunch for my brothers birthday to a local pub, it was nice, even better that the pub took our gourmet society card, so for a meal and drinks for me, oh and the two kids it only came to £25 so that wasn't too bad

Not sure how the overpayments are going to go in March, oh thinks he has some mileage on his pay but we won't know till payday, and we just remembered were at the dentist on thurs so that's an expense I didn't account for

Boo lol

Nevermind onwards and upwards xx

Well my boss rang me yesterday (I don't work thursday or Friday's) with a work opportunity to make some more money temporarily, but it meant I need to be full time for three weeks from the 9th March, so I was frantically trying to sort out childcare for the three weeks of Thursday and Fridays that im usually off, grandparents to the rescue lol, my mam is actually off work one of the weeks so she's gonna have the kids one of the weeks, the in laws the week after and OH is gonna take time off work to do the third week.

So it means for March I will get more pay as my hours for three weeks will be 37 and not 24 and I'm going to be temporarily promoted while I do training, then after training i revert back to part time hours but stay temporarily promoted till the exercise is complete at the end of June

Yay lol xx

Hi all

Having a bit of a low day today, oh well

Decided to stop overpaying the Next account and start overpaying CC10 as we just realised that for every £70 we are paying them they stick on £50 a month interest, I knew the apr was high but didn't realise in money terms what that meant.

Shopping came today and I have £11.99 to overpay this week xx

Morning all

Had the worst nights sleep ever, developed ear ache overnight, couldn't sleep it was so painful and can't hardly hear out of my ear,

I'm going to see if I can get in at the drs today, I don't normally like goimg to the drs but with me starting full time hours on Monday at work it's probably better that I get it checked in case there is an infection or something bah xx

Gah, I feel like the deby busting isnt really going anywhre, I need a big cash injection so I can shove it all at the debt and start seeing some real progress.

Week one of me working full time hours (I normally just do 24 hours over 3 days) I'm feeling tired already even though it is only tuesday lol

Well what a day yesterday was.

OH and the kids dropped me off at work, five minutes later I got a phone call from OH to say that someone had crashed into the side of them, on my son's side, he was in the front passenger seat (he is normally in the back but me and my mam needed a lift to work and we cant all fit in the car unless my son sits in the front, in hindside we should have switched the airbag off) I burst into tears and legged it back up the road, I have never ran so fast in my life.

The car is a write off for sure, we are waiting for confirmation from the insurance company but I can't see how it is fixable, my son has a graze on his head, the paramedic says its from the powder in the air bag, he has a sore arm, and had a bloody nose, OH appears to have a broken wrist, they x-rayed him yesterday and bandaged him but he has to go back this morning for another x-ray, his shoulder and neck are sore. Thankfully DD seems to me ok, shes not 2 yet so can't really tell us if anything is sore, she was irritable yesterday and clingy and cuddly, so I think that is more to do with shock than anything else.

It was the other drivers fault, she pulled out of a side road and crashed into the front side of our car.

Need to buy new car seats for the kids, then the insurance company will refund us, the courtesy car came last night, and we are just waiting for the report on the car to see if it is a write off, and if it is see how much money they give us for our car, then we need to find a new car.

Solicitors were on the phone yesterday for the injuries to DS and OH

Thankfully they all seem ok this morning, DS is looking forward to telling his teacher about it, I guess its exciting for him once he realised no one is hurt. xx
