Aw hun sorry to hear your having a tough time! Life sometimes likes to kick you when you!!!8217;re down doesn!!!8217;t it?

I!!!8217;m really struggling with the challenge this month and feeling a bit down as I just found out that the scoliosis I was diagnosised with before Christmas is worse than thought and is probably going to get worse! All that on top of the fact that my other medication is making me fat! I!!!8217;m hoping to save some money and take my wife away for a weekend for her birthday. Anyone have any ideas?

Sorry about the long post. Good luck to you all for the month ahead.

Sorry to hear about your health nursebear. I'll echo Shariann that it may be worth looking at groupon & wowcher etc (if you haven't already) to see if you can get some deals for your trip away. They often have nice hotel breaks on there. Sending hugs and good luck your way.

Thank you for your support guys. I have some difficult decisions to make over the next few weeks that I have been putting off. It only ever makes things worse but we all do it don't we?

I'm off the mark for the month with 10p from citizenme and 81p interest. Hmm 91p - let's hope it improves as the month goes on!

Sorry to hear this Shariann you have really been going through a rough time lately and I truly hope that things get better for you very soon. Sending you lots of positive vibes in the money making front and hoping you start to have a better month.

Well I put in a Resolver claim a few days ago and have just been paid out £1202 from B@rclays - not had letter yet but thrilled as it is in my account. Only applied on a whim.

CBC - if I can give just one piece of advice. Make sure whatever you go for with a new laptop/pc, that it has an SSD instead of a regular hard drive. The performance benefits are superb. Depending on your existing machine spec (RAM/processor etc), you may find that putting an SSD in it is as good as buying a new laptop, and at a fraction of the cost.

Thanks very much for the advice, Mike:T:beer:

My current laptop was bought in a hurry as an emergency when my previous old one finally died and wasn't cost-effective to get repaired. The old one weighed a ton too so wasn't all that convenient:(. Funds were in short supply at the time:o so I bought the cheapest available so I could get it that day. I realised that the spec was very low but I expected it would do as an emergency temporary laptop.


I really want a Mac but fear this is a want rather than a need. I've always lusted after one since the days when Macs were quite uncommon in UK. It was always the price that put me off though:o. I need a bigger screen this time too, my current laptop seems so small compared to my last one. The larger screen Macs are eyewateringly expensive:eek::mad:


I don't want to pay for adding a SSD to the one I've got, or rather paying someone else to do it for me as I'm technologically useless:o. So long as I don't try to download too much it serves me OK normally for the limited stuff I tend to do with it at the moment. I don't need speed necessarily and with the slow broadband speed we get in this neck of the woods anyway and the basic operations I do on my laptop I think I'll save my money for now;). It was only this latest Windows download that proved problematic but even that's sorted now.


Massive congratulations on your Superbowl and other winnings:beer:.

You're not being a misery, shariann. We're all here to support each other through whatever life throws at us, not just to cheer one another on as we try to make money.


It's really good to be able to unburden ourselves to people who aren't so close to our real life situation. The lovely people on here aren't going to judge or criticise, just offer virtual hugs and encouragement to help one another through the bad times. There are so many times that I've thanked my lucky stars that I came upon this thread and the people on it.


Take care of yourself. Even the worst of times will pass :kisses3:

What lovely words and what a lovely group to be part of, sending love and hugs to Shariann
