Helping out

March 16th, 2011 at 08:29 pm

I may have to withdraw some money from savings. I spoke to my mum yesterday and she asked if she could borrow money. The reason she's asking is because she owes the phone company £172, and she doesn't have it. When I told her I'd have to take it out of savings she told me not to do that, however, I will to help her. I asked her how much money she actually had and she didn't know. Tomorrow we're going to check her balance and see what she's got. My mum's hoping to pay the majority of it, with me just helping out a little. It's due in seven days - well, less now.

In other news, we will have very little to spend on our trip next week. I think I may only have about £20 spare this month. DH has more leftover than me. However, he needs to keep money in his account for a few things that are still left to pay. He knows we're not going to spend a lot, we're going to see his family and get away from here. The only place I really see us spending money on is transport. Hubby was talking about taking his cousins to the pub but we'll see. Basically I'm going on this trip with the intention of spending as little as possible. Hopefully his family are in walking distance.

    I hope that you are able to help your mum without too much of a hit to your own finances, but it is hard when someone else's lack of organization leads to struggles for others, as well. Is there any insurance that you can help her to get more organized, or would she even be receptive to that? Good luck to you...
