Getting there, slowly but surely.

Hiya
I've made most of my payments this month but I'm just waiting for my statements to come through before I update my totals.

I'm having a bit of a bad time at the mo.... I keep getting panic attacks and the Dr put me on some nasty tablets so I'm off work again. I just hope work are understanding.

Sorry you're struggling a bit Mich - driving gives me panic attacks sometimes so I understand that feeling.

Accepting it and working around it works for me. If i absolutely have to drive I'm more likely to have one - especially if other people are relying on me.

If I just decide to jump in the car and go I'm usually fine!

Do you know what's setting you off?

On the challenge front we're still plodding on - there's a little way to go yet though!

This has been complicated by me making a unilateral decision not to wait until we're debt free to sort the house out and start doing it now. We've been doing the grunt work ourselves, but plumbers and electricians cost lots of money! :eek:

I'm glad to see we're all still along for the ride together - even if the ride is chugging a bit on the uphills!

Love Jacks xxx

It does. Was bad though, I needed a new black winter coat. I managed to make 25 pounds last week so that was my budget. I managed to get a cashmere coat on ebay (normally retail well over 250) from a large brand name for just under my budget amount. Well chuffed. Can't wait for it to arrive. I just hope it fits ok. Its Windsmoor and a 16, normally I'm a 14 but large bust and kind of thought heavy jumpers might mean a 14 would be too tight. Anyone else buy Windsmoor stuff?

Another £25 0ff A+L today.
