Hypno's recession busting debt diary.....

I find that most clients are zonked before you even notice any noise, anyway!!

Mudbath

Lol, that's very true. I've stopped apologising for noise now as most people say 'what noise!'!!! xx

Can I have one of those to escape the twins?

Morning! Well despite an early night, I am still tired.....bah! Oh well, at least I did get sleep so it is just a matter of catching up over the next few nights.

Anyway, my ebay buyer has paid, so that is another £30 in the pot, and I can post that parcel today. I do my karate admin thing this evening after work but I think I am going to tell them I cannot continue - the additional hours for the benefit I get is not a favourable ratio.....and I need to be less tired in order that I can earn "real" money!

I ran out of cat food yesterday but the cats were happy to do a bit of a "storecupboard challenge" to help me maintain my NSD - good to see they are on side in the debtbusting Today, therefore cannot be a NSD because they need food........I must be better prepared in my weekly shop!

So, today's list:

• [strike]Make list[/strike] Off to a good start
• [strike]do online banking and check against list[/strike] Done - still in surplus......just
• [STRIKE]post ebay parcel[/STRIKE] Done! Gave me a net profit of £27.34
• [STRIKE]pay in client money to emergency savings[/STRIKE] Done - ooh I have savings :rotfl:
• do karate admin - hand in "notice"
• check for mystery shopping visits available No new ones so far
• spend nothing except for cat food and ebay postage failed on this one already as spent 45p on bread pudding but have spent nothing else "extra".

Have a good day everyone x

List looking good. Still no chocolate to munch on? How is ohs job going?

No chocolate lucielle, but I did buy some bread pudding for 45p at the bakers nearby and munched that for my breakfast Far more filling than chocolate so obviously very MSE.......:rolleyes:

OH's job is going well, thank you, although the drop in salary still concerns me a little - he has his eyes open for better paid jobs and knows that if he is offered something that pays more he will just have to take it otherwise things will remain tight and we won't move forward. But, having said that, a job is a job in these climates and I am grateful he has that, so I don't want to moan (much!).

I'm going off to make a list now, that's always the fun bit..........

Morning - you've been busy today hypno - have to admit to only being awake about half an hour. DH brought me up a drink before he went to work at 6.30 but I onviously fell back asleep - mind you I could do with catching up a bit.

Am just going to start on list for today.

Its my day off from the shop, but I will still have to do a lot here at home. My sitting room is beginning to take shape, with the new accessories, not brilliantly MSE but I couldnt face it after the robbery so I need to make it look different.
My jobs are still as long as my arm, but I will not be killing myself as the last two days have been very hard on my joints etc.
Trying to motivate myself nevermind the twins this morning.

Your list seem liek good idea, think I need lists to keep me on track and motivated. Sounds liek you got busy day but at keat you seem to be earning money each day and have done afew no spend days already this month so wouldent worry too much about buying essentials like food and cat stuff.
Justa thourght is pet food chepaer at local market? Not sure how much pet stuff is in tesco/aldi compared to other supermarkets.

Do you do many mystery shops?

I have loats to do today have pledged 2 no spned says a week but today need to post ebay parcels at postoffice and maybe get trashy mag so wont be today sadly.
I am focussing on housework today and hubbys giving the house facelift with fresh lick on paint, keeps him out of trouble!.

City link just delivered my sewing machine am so exited!
