    I only started it late last night. Good chance I'll have it finished tonight though.

    Amazing book!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Just had another large bill come through the door. Just when I think I'm getting on top of things, something else comes along

    Did you have any idea it was coming?

    None at all. I never had a letter about it, turns out it was sent 4 months after I moved from the first house with dickhead. Yet again, him refusing to let me pay my outstanding debts as him gambling was more important.

    Is it a bill you’re liable for or should he be paying it?

    It's a credit card bill. I was naive and lent my parents £400 off it towards the mortgage as my mum was on sick and they were struggling to pay it. It got spent on Christmas instead and I can't remember really getting the money back. Then I had to replace £200 of my uni accommodation rent as my cousin had borrowed it (she wrote the cheques as I didn't have a chequebook) and she didn't have chance to put it back. Never got that back either. I was only able to make minimum payments so it wasn't coming down much, then dickhead wouldn't let me keep up payments. J has suggested me seeing his solicitor and chasing dickhead for money but it's my debt and my word against his about him not letting me pay.

    Sweetheart, please go to Citizens Advice. I’m sure they can help you manage/write off the debt in your circumstances

    I'm managing to pay off a lot, it just wasn't expected. I've paid off well over a grand in the last year so it's all coming down and is manageable, especially since I've dropped my payments. I'll work out what I can manage and get in touch and make an offer and make sure they're aware of my mental health issues too.

    Doesn't help that J has let me know that his parents have paid for him to take the children to Cumbria for 4 days and he doesn't even know if he'll be able to ring me. I just sometimes feel like things will always be like this and I will always spend a large part of my time feeling lonely...

    Me thinks my mood is low today...
