Next weekend I’m babysitting for a family and will get £130 for that, DH will lend me £200 to get through the month and on the last week, my child benefit comes in and I do get paid on the last day but blimey after food and fuel, I’m going to have SUCH a meagre month 😢
I have no credit available but (fortunately no debts either)
I feel the anxiety scrunching up inside me.
I’m going to just try not to leave the house much- lots of de-cluttering, not going out and cleaning and hopefully by the end of this month I’ll be okay.
I hate money!

People are quick to judge everything 😉

It definitely does happen to us all. I recently switched my bank account, lured in by the switching bonus. Without any warning, my new account had zero overdraft facility 😳 By the time I knew, my old account was already closed. I had to borrow money for the first time in years and it didn't feel good! I'm an accountant.
