Lucielle's daring debt free journey

beckseven

Flipping cars-they are always my undoing as well as they always go wrong when you have nothing saved for it. A necessary evil though with a busy family life. That has made me think that I need to start putting some money aside for my evil motor-tax due in april and mot and service due in september and on maternity leave so need to start saving now!

Me too! I've just set up a car account and will put money in it each month. After a fair bit of work my car scraped through it's MOT, but it will need more work to get it through the next one. Poor car is quite elderly and I can't afford a new one, so this seems to be the only route to go down.

Today I have mopped the kitchen floor, hoovered everywhere and done the ironing (sorry Hypno swear filter not working). Last night sold some CDs on music magpie, thanks to Hiphouse for the tip on that one. Been to work for a couple of hours and hoping to be in again tomorrow.

Need to get some prices for OHs business so will sign off for now.

Horse is now sound, so I'll have to get him out riding. Its been so long I think I'll have forgotten what to do! Didn't need any new shoes this time which is great money saving.

DD1 is going skiing on Sunday so that is an early start. She is sooo excited. Still got her packing to do.

OH is off to his mums house next week to get it sorted. Think they have got a buyer for it.

DS1 has won £100 on the premium bonds. Haven't told him will just put it in the bank.

Have spent £226.66 of £336 grocery budget, so don't think I am doing to bad. Going to grab a coffee before I go to work.

The children all want to go, so it will be slow and steady and I hope he behaves especially if one of the chaps is riding him.

Lovely day here earlier so went up to the boys. They all came in really well and were good. I had taken my bridle apart when I was cleaning it and I must have put it back together wrong as the bit wasn't sitting right in his mouth. Took it apart again several times and I just couldn't figure it out. In the end I turned him out as he wasn't happy and kept tossing his head about. Came back from the ride had another think about it and hopefully got it set up right. Serious blonde moment!

Just done DD1s packing ready for her ski trip. A very early start in the morning. I think OH has managed to get another nightshift tonight so I hope he will wake me up when he comes in. I am also working so another couple of hours for me.

Have just got back in from dropping DD1 off, to catch the coach for her ski trip. Hope France is ready for them! Off to find some coffee.

If France can cope with my two for weeks at a time, I am sure it is ready for anything :rotfl:
