Lucielle's daring debt free journey

Well done on the wins and good luck to DD for the scholarship.0

Won another £5 on BB. So deposited and withdrawn. Have put OHs tickets on for this afternoon. See if they do any good. Paid £15 off target card today. Slowly, slowly. I am hoping OH has fantastic wages this week then I can blitz it, put some money away for food shopping and get a few more prezzies. Also need to send my car in for a service and get the engin light sorted. It seems to be over revving.
OH went for some physio yesterday. He has got a trapped nerve in his back. He has got lots of exercises to do so I will be reminding (nagging) him to do them.

i've advised (told) OH that i'm going to get him registered on BB on payday so that he can have a go at winning something. He's finally joined the scratchcards thing (only 10months later than i) and i've been doing them for him.0

OH has been signed up for scratchcards for ages. My theory didn't work and he hasn't won anything this afternoon.

I won £8 this morning. Have put OHs money on tickets for a different time in the afternoon, fingers crossed.
Its actually not raining this morning, first time for ages. Think it will rain later though.
Tired today, the dog woke me up wanting to go out. Apparently she had had an accident when OH got in but he didn't think to let her out.
Another £5 paid off the card, hoping to clear it tomorrow with OHs wages. Better get ready to go to work.
