expense, hubby had to go dentist! £57 and some oddments on Monday required for his treatment! Now I want to talk to this IVA seriously and say I'll pay all this and everything you throw at me, you will not beat me (I hope)!
Dishwasher - broke
Dehumidifier - broke
Bathroom Window - broke
Boiler fixed and bill of £810 paid couple of weeks ago
Gold Bangle - broke
Washing Machine on it's last legs!
Son Moving out! he's gone lost £50 per week!
Now the teeth but give me a few months off to get a bit of money behind me please! First I want to pay the £300 I am in arrears with my IVA, then it'll be Christmas..
Please give me a break x

It always comes at the same time doesn't it Lesley. At least you're still smiling even if it is with gritted teeth.
Heres to next month being better.

Ah Lesley - you certainly deserve a break. I know from reading some of your previous posts, you'll take it all in your stride and keep positive. You'll beat this IVA as I hope we all will

Thanks Sue, The only way is up! I like that!
I just need a few months where nothing goes wrong and I can get a couple of quid behind me!
I'm sorry I always appear to be talking about me me me, oh woe is me, but I really do need a break, all I think is if it all goes wrong in the first year maybe the next 48 months will be plain sailing.
I'm never even shocked now when something does go wrong or a bill is presented to me i.e the dentist as I'm always expecting it, one day I'll get a bonus and have some money over at the end of the month! Then I'll be posting, blimey I've got a few quid over!
Forgot to add my shower to that top list! That's being replaced this weekend though from the car boot money as I can't keep having baths, how time consuming!
Might need one Sunday though as Kerri (kandh) and I are doing the 5k Race for Life at Burghley House.

That's what posting here is all about. I've learnt that you can talk about yourself and get stuff off your chest and it feels better for a while.
Good luck with the race. Are you being sponsered?

I've got lots of sponsorship from students (adult learners, work in a college) got around £150 sponsorship, havent' put anything down for myself yet but will do, just waiting to see if we have a few pound spare on Monday!
On a plus side I'm going to Peterborough tomorrow to spend the vouchers, to get some nice leggings and top to do the race in, so I might be poor but I'll look smart!

To be honest Ang, I hate shopping for anything! I'm a strange woman, can't stand buying clothes, shoes or anything, I do it as I have to, think this is why I've held onto the vouchers for so long, so I'm not looking forward to it, but got a day of staff development on Tuesday at the main campus for work so going to treat myself and also buy something suitable to do race for life in!
