misstara's debt diary 2014

Oh sorry, but that made me smile. My OH does things like that and I honestly think its part of his great plan to never get asked to do anything around the house/garden. So far his plan has been very successful! Still, I've had him for 45 years and don't have the energy to try to train a new one :-)

:rotfl: you may be onto something there Boodedoo! Seeds have now been replanted so we'll see what happens.

Yesterday ended up being a NSD, I couldn't be bothered going to the shops after work but will definitely need to go today. Salad cream and washing up liquid have been added to the shopping list.

Just checked my accounts and rounded down - £1.01 paid off the debt

So close to being a third of the way

£2.51 paid off this morning so now at 33%

Was planning a NSD yesterday but my headphones broke, £7.49 for a new set. OH also ran out of milk, tea and sugar so £5.01 spent on those and a bottle of squash.

Lovely day again yesterday so spent an hour or so after work sunbathing in the garden. Today is not so nice but will hopefully be a NSD.

£3.17 paid to the debt today taking it to 33.3% paid off :T

Today has been a NSD, will definitely need to get some food shopping done tomorrow.

Did a shift for 2nd job tonight and then I've got a wee shift tomorrow morning. Will be knackered but then I've got the rest of the weekend off. We're going to a BBQ tomorrow and then drinks out with friends on Sunday

Wow! you are doing SO well ! The move costs are soon going to be a thing of the past :-)

Thanks Boodedoo - getting there slowly

Went to the BBQ yesterday and spent £10 then went to a local rescue place to look at dogs. Unfortunately most of the dogs were quite big and not suited for our wee flat and the only dog that we agreed on was already reserved for someone else so no dog as yet. There's another rescue place fairly close by so plan is to go there at some point this week.

We also went to the supermarket and spent £15.09 although realised we forgot a few things so will nip in and get them on the way home later.

Meeting friends for a couple of afternoon drinks at 4. Put a gammon joint in the slow cooker earlier so we can have that for tea once we get home.

Had a lovely long lie this morning and then went for a run. Ran 6k which wasn't bad, still got 5 weeks until the 10k.

Payslip from main job came through yesterday so will have to work on a budget, get paid on Friday. Finances this week look a bit tight but we'll manage, don't want to transfer money out of savings.

Right, suppose I better go and start getting ready. We're walking into town to save on bus fare so will need to leave shortly. Hope everyone is having a good weekend
