Well done on the phones ROTE, like you said better paying off your debts than sat in the drawer, no matter how little.
The weather is awful today, haven't been taken Darcy out in ages! Need to go into town today so hopefully it might fair up a bit. Best get up and moving, this has to be the least productive week off I've ever had! Or.. maybe after Antiques Roadshow..0 -
Morning!Finally back to normal after my 10 hour sleep marathon last night, feeling fresh as a daisy now! I haven't heard about the job so looks like I didn't get it...boo! I could have done that job in my sleep (if I had to work 6-2 I would be asleep!) so its their loss!Anyhoo, I haven't done anything towards £1000 in 100 days, forgot about it what with everything else happening! Will have to put some stuff on ebay tonight whilst watching the Apprentice repeat tonight as I forgot it was on last night (considering I was in bed at 9.15 that's no surprise!). I have made about 40p from free scratchcards on Butlins Bingo though!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary.

I was going to ask you how that was going Birdie! When are the 100 days up?
Shame about the job but you're right, their loss! I'm sure they'll be something else out there for you.
Got my little notepad out and I'm trying to write a 'to do' list for today. So far I've written 'To Do:' :rolleyes:0 -
Sounds like my To Do list every day! I'm so useless it's embarrassing! I must sort out our spare room tonight, OH emptied my car on Monday as I'd been driving around with boxes and bags in it with the back seats down since February and he dumped everything in there and it's getting a bit dicey trying to move aorund in there now! He's also 'tidied' away my work shirts that were drying, there are now new clothes on the airer thingy and my work shirts are nowhere to be seen! I spent ages walking around the house in my pjs muttering to myself this morning before giving up and picking up something non-uniformy to wear! I'm hoping they turn up during the great sort out!
The 100 days is up on the 20th July, I think! Will have to get cracking!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0 -

Gah! I have soo much to do today because I'm off on Fri and Mon, are long weekends worth it when you have to rush around like this beforehand?!
Hope everyone's well! xxxWeightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
Yay for paragraphs! :j
Decided to take my pooch for a walk then do some baking. Would love to go into town but I don't need anything and I'm in that spending mood, so I'm best off staying indoors!
That drives me crazy when clothes go missing! Happens so often to me, I completely forget about them so it's like I have new clothes when they get thrown on my bed.
Good luck with clearing the spare room tonight! Don't forget lots of biscuit exercises before hand, don't want you pulling a muscle or anything!
ETA: Yes Tete, makes them even better infact!! Do you have anything planned?0 -
I'm getting tired of losing clothes, my uniform is slowly disappearing; I lost a jumper a couple of weeks ago and it is nowhere to be seen. It was one of my company issue fleeces before that! My uniform really isn't that nice, why does the clothes stealing monster want it???Days off work are always worth it Tete! Never think otherwise!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary.

Going somewhere nice Tete or just treating yourself to a few days off?
Sorry about the job.
Think of that £2 for the phone as £2 + the interest you are currently paying on £2 of debt.
We all watched the apprentice last night, won't say who was fired except it was the wrong person! Most well rounded candidate of the three, we were shocked!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008
Debt September 20th 2022 £2991.68- 96.92% paid off0
