I finally sent off the application reqeusting details of all the information on my credit file. I have a lot of companies & agencies to get in contact with but it has to be done.
I have to repair my credit history and this is the first step. I guess I have been fooling myself into thinking that it was never going to be an issue for me. Thinking that I would never grow into the ‘Adult’ that worried about being refused services based on my credit scoring but I so freaking am. I have grown into exactly that which I thought I would not.
I am not going to be forced to get a mortgage through my Mother’s name because no bank will touch me with a barge pole. I shall do all I have to do to rectify this situation. And yes, that means paying every single company I owe money to.
I started with Scottish Power yesterday paid off the outstanding bill of £226.89 from when I moved to another gas company.
I bought an e-book of ebay about repairing my credit rating in the quickest steps and even though the bulk of the info is not relevant to my own situation, there is still some new steps that I now feel that I can take that I was not aware of before.
I got myself into this mess and only I can get myself out. 5 years ago

I have not faced anything that needed facing lately. I guess I should move this goal up the list, giving it higher priority. 5 years ago

Dilly dallying over choices for summer hols. Scaring myself that I had left it way too late and would be unable to find anywhere decent with dates left in August AND reasonably priced.
Made myself commit to getting it sorted by the end of this week and had it figured in a day. Got the brochures out, had a flick through, worked out the travel mission involved in all options and of course any kiddie offers to swing it my way.
My spirit leant towards one of the dozens of adverts. A little place in Newquay. Got on the phone and had our place reserved in next to no time :)
Sun, sea and sand. bliss!
Shall send off payment within the coming week. 5 years ago

I am taking a page from fellow 43T’s Things-fall-apart’s book! I think she is the person who penned this goal and I want in!
I have several things that need facing! Here are some of my categories:
1. Finalizing wedding plans
2. Dealing with consumer complaints
3. Wrapping up legal issues
4. Commitment to Body for Life
5. Saving $
6. Home improvement
7. Getting the degree
8. Commitment to painting
9. Learning/implementing Web production
10. Learning to invest
11. Making “uncomfortable” calls (ie: the car restoration)
I have been stalling and putting off in all these areas. Time to zero in on why and get off the dime. 5 years ago

Okay my laptop has been infiltrated by spyware. It would be okay if I wasn’t offline due to this. So, in the spirit of facing thing s that need facing i spent as long as i needed on BT’s tech line a couple of hours ago and sought some advice in the process.
Hence why i am now out and about trying to find a public computer that actually lets you write to disc so i can download some adware to take home.
well, as fun as this might be it is not helping in anyway so off i go to yet another internet cafe…
- footnote: at the very worst i will be forced to to buy one of those removable usb devices for info storage, they go for anything between 20 to 80 quid from what i have seen on the high street today 6 years ago

I faced a biggie today. Until 13.31 today when I dealt with it by taking action I had been burying my head in the sand. There is ‘something’ unsocial that I have engaged in for the past 28months or so (Yes, I realise its a long long period with my head in the sand) but I finally found that I couldn’t deal with the knowledge of my own abhorrent behaviour any longer. I guess this has a lot to do with my classiness aim and I almost posted this in there.
Stealing from the power grid is wrong even if I wasn’t the one to initiate it. 6 years ago

I am simply effulgent at my No.1 (state it and do it) but I can be quite crap at this…
I want to get better. This is going to be really hard and I do not even know how to start breaking it down in my head in order to not only digest it but to be able to start formulating an action plan of such.
This is the scariest thing on my list. If only I could say why out loud… 6 years ago
