Money Fritters 'Enough Now' DFW Diary

Money_Fritter

The Illusion of Life

What does the world owe me,

Is what the people ask,

Trying to be famous,

Trying to get rich fast,

People forget the important things in life,

The things that relieve all that strife,

The things that last and make us strong,

Should be remembered and undo all the wrong,

We live in an era, that seems to take,

We live in a world that is so fake,

A world of greed,

That all of us feed,

Why can’t we simply do a good deed?

We care for ourselves,

And not for each other,

We look to hoard and blame each other,

We take for granted the food we eat,

We take for granted the bed in which we sleep,

We forget the important things in life,

Family, friends and the air we breathe,

We need to cherish the moments, that come and go,

Cause you never know how life will go.

Hi Folks,

Just thought I would say hello as I have not been on for a while. I am still plodding along. I will try and post an update in the next few days

Hi Folks,

Well it has been an expensive month as I had MOT and car insurance and road tax coming out. The MOT wasn't too bad and nothing major needed to be done, but it all adds up. I have become quite lazy recently with the money saving and I need to get back into gear and get motivated again.

I need to sit down and work out the accounts and get back to it.

Hi Folks,

Well had a good sit down and worked out the accounts. I have set a few targets for the rest of this month.

1) To manage 8 NSD's - I am currently on 2 so far
2) To complete a PAD of £5 on my visa card in addition to my normal payments.
3) To try and earn some extra income by matched betting and continue trading.

Tonight I managed to make a small profit on the West Ham Vs Middlesbrough match (£3.64). That takes my trading total for the month to £106.76.

Hi Folks,

Well managed to carrry out another PAD today of £5. I also managed a NSD, so that is 3 for the month.

I also did a bit of trading tonight on the Man City Vs Chelsea match and managed to make £13.06.

I have the week off from work next week, not going away, but if the weather is nice, might have a few days out with the lovely gf, but they will have to be frugal ones of course.

Hi Folks,

Well I managed another run last night. One thing I have been highly motivated recently is losing this weight. I have lost 13lbs since the begining of Feb. I am now back under 15 stone, which is the first time since last June.

Hopefully I can keep it up and get back to my old fitness a few years ago.

Well done on the weight loss MF. I have managed 10 lbs since January - slowly but surely its coming off.

I have had a bad month with transport costs - a new tyre for DH's motorbike - 2 new tyres for my car and some bake pads and shoes and something else for the brakes - all told around £800 and "only" had around £400 in the car/bike account. But at least I had something in there. In the old days it would have been a credit card job. Just had to get back and sell some bike bits on Ebay to put towards it.

Well done with the weight loss MrsP, it is hard to start with, but I enjoy the running now. Yeah cars, can't live with them, can't live without them.

Hi Folks,

Well no NSD for today as I had to get some tomatoes and bread on the way home from work.

I managed another PAD day today of £5, so please with that.

I did not do any trading tonight, no football matches on, so I had a relaxing night with the gf catching up with Alcatraz, a new lost type show. Also watched house, I so love that show.

I have just been watching John Bishops sport relief show. I have got to take my hat off to that guy, awesome.

I have just donated £5 to sport relief, so if anybody can help, please donate.

What happens when you stop caring for yourself?
