  • Okay so sat and worked out the financials for the next few months.

    Now my fabulous Mum has told me that she isn't charging me any rent until I pay off my credit cards, I swear I cried when she told me this and I can't help feeling bad that I am living rent free :embarasse

    My sister said to me to just take the opportunity to get myself sorted out financially while I have it and that Mum wouldn't offer if she couldn't manage, ahhhh it just isn't sitting right with me.

    Anyway on that basis I have worked out that my debt will all be gone by 1st December 2018 at the very latest.

    If I can get it paid off before then I will and the sooner I can start paying my way the sooner I will feel better :rotfl:

    Feel so much better with it all written down and planned out.

  • What a lovely thing for your mum to do xx
  • I know, she is just the best so she is.

  • Morning!

    Okay so felt much better when I got up this morning and hardly coughed through the night, was all positive when I got to work this morning then I had a nosebleed!

    Sitting at my desk and felt my face wet and was like why has my nose started running so bad, tissue and face covered in blood.

    It's stopped now thank god, I never get nosebleeds so hoping that was just a one off.

    Anyhoo list for today;

    * Work 8-6.30pm
    * Surveys
    * Update satnav
    * Buy USA and Canada maps for satnav
    * Phone Canada-land to finalise plans
    * Book a haircut
    * Book nails
