    Hi, Know exactly howe you feel. I have days like this but as long as you remember that you are heading in the right direction everything will be fine ;)

    I just got my statements from the Halifax about my charges and im owed £929 although I noticed that the rules have changed and now it could be over a year before we may get anything back according to MArtins article.

    With regards to a Beer or 2 I dont think you need an excuse... ;)

    Stress free... What's that!!??

    I don't drink beer, but a bottle of vodka would do nicely and I don't care if it's 1pm!! Money not looking great, but will keep going forward.

    I try to remember that what doesn't break us can only make us stronger.... I'm going to be world's stronger woman by the end of this!!

    Oh and just think of where you could have been, it could be much worse!
