Starting small

I'm actually quite terrified starting up this blog - for one thing the exposure is high, and even though I'm one to not be too worried about privacy, finances are still one of those areas where we tend to remain very private. For another I'm scared of failing. What if noone bothers to look at this? What if noone cares? What if I give up and continue to spiral down?



Enough of the negative talk!

I paid off some more of my debts today, well, I made some payments on them anyway. I also turned out the spare change and managed to scrounge together €20 to start off my savings jar. It's not much in the grand scheme of things, but it's a start. I'm still waiting to find out what the total lawyers bills will look like. I suspect it will be a fair bit higher than I imagined. Turns out that my ex was spending up big on the girlfriend before we broke up, and joy of joys that debt is shared between us grrr... I really feel totally ripped off, but sitting here and moping will not help me.


Paid off today - $550
Savings today - €20
