So after a few months of living pay check to pay check and a lot of the time any change we can find, we are finally seeing the brighter side of the track. We have gone through everything we pay, sorted out what we don't need to pay and setting things in motion to help get us through the tough points. Our tax returns have helped but only to get us non essentials like a new TV etc (out TV's blue screen is BLACK so we need a new one). My hours at work have picked up now the holidays are over which is going to help A LOT!! I now work in one week what I had been working per fortnight if that at all. It has taken a lot of stress off our backs and minds which means happier us. And we now have the opportunity to spend a little on us. Like go see a movie, or go out for tea etc.
We will endeavor to keep our finances in check, even though no matter what we try we always get to a point where we struggle again. But with what we are going to put into place those hard times won't be as frequent or as hard as it used to be.

Glad things seem to be coming together for you. it's so hard living from week-to-week, isn't it? I actually know what that's like as well, so hang in there, ma'am :)

You're doing a wonderful job, even though you're doing it tough. Try and keep going- it's sooo hard denying yourselves the treats for so long- I know. We really admire the way you're coping with life - so there are some people out there barracking for you, OK? :) ((hugs))
