Dragon's debt diary

Had to chuckle at the Lawyer sending you a card..and well done on the weight loss.x

Okay time to start over again! But I am not starting a new diary until Dr Dragon has a new job (or they tell me I have too many posts!)

We finally got notification that we will get some Council Tax relief (have to pay £20 a month - BUT seeing as that is for one month only AND they are giving us £300 rebate we think that is doable!), still no news as to whether Dr Dragon got the job he went for before Christmas but then again we haven't heard that he hasn't got it! :rolleyes:

Weight wise - back up to 294 pounds so the debt busting AND the weight busting AND the de-cluttering starts here!

I would like to be 280 pounds by the end of January AND if possible to have cleared another £100 of the CC - watch this space! :rotfl:

Good news on the CT relief.
Hope you hear something good about the job soon.
Good luck on the weight loss for jan and £100 off CC.

Thanks Taxi! as you can see from my sig I have a little way to go on both the weight AND the CC - but slowly and surely I will get there.

Hi Dragon! Slow but sure, absolutely; when I was losing weight to go into my forties, what I did was to cut down portion size, and not eat after 9pm maybe 5 nights a week - it became very easy in the end, tho I've got really round again now (but this is some time later!).

Well we are fighting at the employment tribunal (not sure when though) as Dr Dragon's previous company are contesting. We may need to get the lawyer involved again *sigh* so it looks as though I could be adding an extra £600 to my debt! (in total it would be £1,200 but Dr Dragon will pay half of that - mind you if we get a decent payout then his previous company will pay it all!).

Diet starts again tomorrow (not that I am planning a huge splurge today!), and I plan to start back at the book I am writing AND my stitching so I will be a busy Dragon in 2009

Good luck with the tribunal - hope it all goes your way. Sounds like you have a busy 2009 planned - book sounds exciting! Are we talking to the next JKRowling??
