  • Holiday spends 0p - so need to start scraping that together tonight.

    Look at bank account see whats left..and move this to holiday funds so I now have £98.06 ..;) so I will have to live of whats in my purse until the weekend if I can.


    Am Hoping to add the fleasy jet cheque to this so £212 so that would be £310 :D


    Really don't have the energy for 3bay at the moment :o but I'm sure I could make up an extra £90...spending for hols...


    Need to pay for a screen repair .. :mad: but better than the cost of a new work phone ( i'm hoping my work will never know :rotfl:)




    I even missed first dat3s last night due to working so late. really do wonder what is like to work in a normal job...:rotfl:I am doing better and only doing 60 hrs a week 5 days now..although I'm salaried so it wouldn't matter if I did 40 or 80 I would still get the same....:mad:


    Today was not a good day all stress at work and due to some bads news in the family am knocked for 6 so home from work and in bed but will have to make some calls later tonight so will compose self for that.

  • back from weekly shop which had to be done locally so £30 lighter (!) but that will cover me and plus one for the next few days.


    Forgot more milk and butter so will have to get that tomorrow.


    No updates other than I paid the dentist £180 which is enough to make your teeth ache just at the thought of paying all that money


    Still need to do 3bay and the screen repair but I will sort it somehow.


    Owe cc1 150 so must remember to pay that :)

  • Just spent all weekend sorting someone else's debt made me feel quite ill lol


    I suppose we all have different views on what is a priority :)


    Feel better for sorting them as they are happy but oh my gosh it was an exhausting process to get them to face up to reality on priority debts.


    Hope everyone is good and looking after themselves :)

  • Hi Sam

    How lovely of you to help someone else with their debts. I always seem to have a lot of advice for people regarding their money but I'm never able to follow my own advice.

    Hope everything is ok with you and you are enjoying the bank holiday weekend.
