Hi
Well it's another day and thanks to you all I did have a reasonably good nights sleep. I feel so posative now that I cant wait to get the ball rolling for the bankruptsy. The C.A.B. are helping me with the forms ect and I am hoping to get an appointment with Joy this week (the lady from the C.A.B. who is helping me). Today is the first day since my husband died that I feel a lot happier and it's thanks to you guys. I will of course keep you all posted on the progress.

Hi well it's another day and I must say that since talking to you guys I had a fairley good nights sleep (the first in a long while). This week I will be going to see Joy (from the C.A.B.) to sort out going bankrupt. I feel so positive after all your help and support. I will of course keep you posted on the progress.
Thanks:A X X X0 -
Good luck- I went BR last monday and I can't even begin to tell you the change it's having, I'm not shouting at my kids anymore, I'm eating, I can sleep, I am actually laughing again!
I'm in a H.A house and when i notified them they said as long as I paid my rent consistantly they didn't bother with it, so I stopped my payments to my creditors and concentrated on keeping on top of essential bills (rent, gas, electric, council tax) I have nothing of material value either
Good luck, it is one of those things that sounds scarier than the reality is.:j BSC #101 :j0 -
I am so glad that you are feeling more possitive about things. You have so many people here who will hold you hand virtually through this.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0
