    I know what you mean about not generating the extra money - I think that this is my poorest month for ages! But I am using the excuse that I am out there running, and so don't have the brain/time for extra MSE stuff! (But it really is just an excuse.....I am sure I could do it if I tried!).

    Hypno where are you up to moneywise, I mean are you still putting money towards skiing at the moment or is it going on the debts again? I have been reading your diary but I can't remember :o:o

    and Milly, hows the matched betting prep going?? :D

    A bit of both really, benben......I get demotivated if I don't pay anything towards the debt, so I need to keep that interest going.....for fear of giving up!

    But of course, I am very much looking forward to skiing, so the money I am putting towards that is well worth it!

    Once I am home again, and after the marathon, I will be putting more effort into the debtbusting again!

    I'm just off for a nice warm bath as my eyes are starting to go funny as I've been on here for hours :o Then I may get the ironing out the way while harry hills on, then back on here for some more sorting out. I am feeling quite organised again now though, still don't have my photos or music sorted on here but have all the music on my ipod so its not too bad. Its funny how lost I've felt this week without my laptop sorted and without my bank card, at least things are getting back to normality now and I am looking forward to catching up with things :D

    and Milly, hows the matched betting prep going?? :D

    Not happening this week I'm afraid:o Not been feeling that well this week, so I'm just crashing out after work. Today I slept all afternoon and feel even worse now...grrrrrr! I must, must get going with MB though, I'm running out of decent stuff to ebay so can't see another way to make extra cash.
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Aww, hope you're feeling better soon Milly :o

    I've had my bath and the ironing is done although not yet put away. I need to dig out various bits of paperwork tonight; I need to cancel my monthly payment to my isa as that money is needed to pay for the laptop, then I also need to sort out my new mobile contract.

    Tomorrow I plan to get up and go to the gym again before ds comes home, other than that I am hoping to clear most stuff off my list tonight so I don't have too much to do tomorrow ;):D

    I've been to the gym and am very pleased with myself as thats four times since my induction last week :D:D

    Today I've got a few jobs to finish off before I go and collect ds, the sun is shining and its another lovely day here, although they said it won't last long :rolleyes:

    I got 50p and 10p on the scratchcards today so am pleased with that too. Have a good day all :D

    Have a good day yourself! The sun is shining here (we had the storm last night) so very springlike!
