Strangely not this pregnancy - with the first two I was sick from the start till after I delivered them,.. I found out I am pregnant the day we went on holiday (18th July) and since then I have had 5 days with morning sickness.
I have had nausea but that is wearing off now... maybe my body is coming round to pregnancy 3rd time!!0 -
Morning everyone.
Sorting out the finances this morning. Have transferred £137.17 over to the bills account, so that I can pay the nursery fees from the bills account and leave enough for the rest of the bills to go out. That leaves £164.75 in the living account, £32 of which is budgeted for me, Ste and band practice, leaving £132.75.
I got my CAB expenses cheque yesterday, so that's another £61.20 to go in. Going to make the effort to go down the post office and bank today as I also have an AS return to post.
On the 28th I'll also get my argos wages, which are usually £120 BUT I had a day off sick so it remains to be seen if I get full pay for that day. :rolleyes:
Need to rework out the ASDA/BT plan as I've lost my notes with the amounts needed on them, like the plank that I am.. lol. Will update as soon as I've worked it out though.
Hope everyone's well this morning. I dyed my hair black again last night in preparation for the gig (it was fading out from the last time...) so I look my best... 8 days to go :eek:
Not going out tonight. We're supposed to be going out as a band tomorrow to scope out the varsity and watch a band in action there. Weird to think we've only got 2 practices til the gig (having one on wednesday as the gigs next saturday so obviously won't be able to have a normal sunday practice!).
*gulp*
Started my TMA last night but there was a really confusing question about mortgage interest rates which I couldn't get my head around so coming back to it tonight. Urgh.. sooo complicated... _pale_Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043

Right... ASDA/BT workings out.
ASDA balance.
£1225.82
£31.59 due to go out on the 27th
= £1194.23
Credit limit £2000
2000-1194.23 = £805.77 available
TV 955
955-805.77 = £149.23 needed to make enough room for BT + 2.99% fee and buffer to stop us going over credit limit when interest from purchases is added.
hang on. Just read something on the ASDA site.* Balance Transfers are subject to application by the primary cardholder and the available credit limit on their ASDA Credit Card. Rate of 0% p.a. for 9 months applies to Balance Transfer(s) that you transfer to your ASDA Credit Card within 6 weeks of signing the agreement. A handling fee of 2.99%. This fee will be shown on your next monthly statement. At the end of the 9 months if you haven't paid off the Balance Transfer amount in full, interest will become payable on the remaining amount at your then current standard retail purchase rate. Your monthly payments will be allocated to Balance Transfers and Retail Purchases with a 0% interest rate before other Balance Transfers, Retail Purchases and Cash Transactions which are charged at a higher rate. Only UK credit card balances may be transferred and are subject to approval.

Oooh what a busy day. Went down the village, banked my CAB cheque, got out the money to pay the nursery fees, paid the deposit for the taxi to go out tomorrow, posted an AS return and went to the nursery to pay them. Have also booked a dentist check up. Now I've got to sort out my AS account (overdue because I've not been working :rolleyes: ) and also sort out what we're going to do about band practice as they're closed on sunday! :eek: Need 2 practices this week because of the gig so may have to resort to tues and weds.
