Managed to lose another half pound, which takes me to the half stone mark. A bit disappointed really as I had tried really hard with the diet. On the exercise front its non existant!

Still shattered from the early start yesterday and have been in grumpy cow mode all day. It didn't help when I came home to the house being in !!!!!! tip last night. Had to leave work early today to get one of the lawn tractors loaded, my hours are sadly lacking.

Helping out at friends on my day off, more pennies for the ski and oil pots.

Well done on weight loss

Day off today but working for a friend. Went to do the horse this morning and he was in a cuddly mood and wanted me to find all his itchy bits. Made me a sad to think about what I've got to do in September. His leg was a lot better need to trot him up and down to make sure its 100%.

DD1s 13th birthday today. She got a new phone, jeans ,traditional maltesers and a box of crunchy nut clusters (I never buy them). Also promised her a small shopping trip. Loan payment came out today another £324.60 off the debt. Got to get all my figures sorted ready for tomorrow as it will be 6 months since I last updated.

Working again on Saturday and possibly Monday but not sure how I'm going to fit that in with my regular job. I have have DD2 to take to school as she is going away for a week, so that means I can't go in early to make my hours up. Sure I'll think of something.

Really struggling to get the washing dry at the mo. TD is poorly and not sure how much it would cost to get it mended. Need some nice weather again. Have managed to get some towels dry today outside, I should maybe have put some more out. See what tomorrow is like. Going in the bath as my feet are killing me (been waitressing for 6 hours) Hopefully good for the weight loss. Mind you I have just consumed a slab of birthday cake and very nice it was too, even if I do say so myself.

Took some Nytol last night as I haven't been sleeping very well. We both managed to sleep in and didn't get up until 7.20 DS1s bus is at 7.30 so no stress this morning :mad:. Thrust him out the door with toast in hand.

Took the horse for a gentle ride as he was sound in trot :j, see how he is in the morning.

Now for the money bits. Paid £130.39 off the debt which is included in todays figures:T.

Outstanding

Santander £2690 @ 0% currently the target card
Barclaycard £2906 @ 6.9% LOB
Bank of Scotland £4760 @ 6.9% LOB
Citi £5223 @ 6.9% LOB
Tesco £6816.6 @ 6.5% LOB (only loan we have)

Total debt £22395.60

I didn't make the June target of paying off 9k but managed £7551.71.

I need a new target for December 8k perhaps? Not sure, got a week to think about it.:money:

I would really like to be cc free by the end of 2011.

I am trying to pluck up courage to ask for a wage rise as I have been there for over a year and no indication that one is going to be made. I am useless at selling myself (not in a prostitute kind of way!!:rotfl:) and talking about money. Any pointers appreciated.

Need to update siggy.
