    Guess what, no response to text message and no CM paid in yet. This man is on £72k per year plus state pension. Every damn month he pays in one minute before I can officially complain. It’s so controlling.

    im His third wife, and he’s living with prospective wife number four. Wife number two tried to warn her, wanted me to join an ex-wife vendetta! I said no, we need to co-parent civilly (we Co-parent very well), but he pushes me further towards the idea every month!!
    wow that ex wife club sounds like a great idea, Disgusting he is doing this

    I assume you are looking after your dad, hope life is ok for you and yours.
     However well done on paying off the Very, NW will be next
    DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
    No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff.    Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.

    Offt - a lot on your plate. Just popping on to say my own mother was diagnosed with pernicious anemia in her 50s and had monthly (if I remember correctly B12 injections in her stomach). She was completely revitalised on them - with a definite drop-off towards the end of the month. I hope they provide the same boost for you; meanwhile, be kind to yourself. BiB x

    I have to have a B12 injection every 3 months. It does help.

    Just found your diary and read along with interest.

    I'm a bit of a travel buff myself, and we have similar debt levels and incomes, as well as being a single parent with a teen. Trying to balance adventures with debt paying is hard so I admire your persistence. I'm currently trying to balance the budget for a long distance hiking trip to the Balkans, and had a lovely weekend in Copenhagen with DD in February. Our current big budget plan is Costa Rica summer 2026 to celebrate the end of GCSE's

    I am sorry to hear about your father's ill health and your own diagnosis. I hope you are getting the support you need too.

    Love and light
    Sascha
