There is a lot going on in your life and every part of it will be chipping away at you. Find one thing you can do just for you that you can look forward to everyday. A hot shower or bath, a hot water bottle and An early night or even something like a clean kitchen/bedroom every night before bed. Something that makes you feel a bit more in control.

I have my set 3 mile walk that I try to do every other day (would love to be able to every day but circumstances dont always allow) and on the days I can!!!8217;t get out and get some head space I have a nice hot bubbly bath whilst watching something on my tablet. You need a !!!8220;in your own head!!!8221; moment for just half an hour to start relaxing and refreshing you.

Thank you yet again for being here.

Full confession.

I have borrowed 5000 pounds. 5.9% interest, 116 pounds a month. I can make over payments.

The car, the garden, my teeth, the rabbits' teeth. I just give up trying to find the money all the time.

I will either pay it off with the tax rebate or keep that as my emergency fund.

I know this is n't really very DFW but I also want a holiday. I haven't left the country since 2011.

I am tired. I have tried and tried to save the money. In fact I have saved it twice. I am done with waiting.

Dont beat yourself up Buffy.
You did what you needed to do at this moment in time.
It is what it is.
As you say you can overpay & repay early.
You are working & can afford it.

thank you, means a lot.

I wish I was one of those people who could save and save. But it is never enough.

And as you say it is what it is. xxx

Beanie's right, Buffster. Also, I'm not sure there are 'people' who can save and save - there are situations that enable people to save, and you have a lot going on that distracts from that. Save your sanity first and pay it off early later if you want.

Just make sure that it's spent on things that will enhance your life.
