Having a little bit of a bad morning. This cheered me up. Thanks.

I feel more positive today.
I went to bed early and I've made a list, so I feel more motivated.
I applied for job seekers allowance yesterday. I don't think I'll get it cause DH earns too much but if they can help me find a job that would be great. My appointment is after half term...
I've decided I can only do what I can do and stressed about it isn't going to get the money together....

Morning all..thought I'd pop in see how you are all doing. You are doing really well.I'm at a stop at the moment as I'm paying £1400 for new windows (cash saved up not CC) today.
Pity I can't add these windows to my paying off total..lol

Just when you think you're doing well and will finish the month in the black ( I get paid on the 20th and was on track for the month) things go wrong.

My car is booked in for it's service on Sat morning .........just found out it's going to cost £150 and that's not including any work that's needed . So no doubt the credit card will have to be used

Ever feel like just giving up???

evening all.
Another payment today of £6.67.

New totals;

Loan £11332.98
Forma £1178.68
overdraft £1500

Total debt now £14011.66. Still hoping to be sub 14 k by the end of the week. It'll be a struggle but that car boot might budge me up a few quid!

Everyone is doing so well...keep it up..We all have up and down days and unexpected things will happen at some point.Maybe after the service put £10 a week away towards car expenses and then if a car bill crops up then you'll have some put by...

Woo hoo just won another £18.64 on the free bingo to go towards my debts!
