  • Ooooh, I would love some new boots, mine are looking a bit tired these days :(

    Next year, Roney....

    (and I do have several other pairs that I have hardly worn but the tired ones are my favourites - I also was looking for some pairs that I thought I had in the cupboard but I must have cleared them to the charity shop in a rare show of enthusiasm and motivation)

  • Hi all!

    I also need a kick up the bum. I am starting to slip a bit. Need to get re-focussed and stop looking at holidays I can't afford!

    Roll on payday so I can maybe go below 18k!

    Oh god what are we all like.

    Maybe we need to have a mini challenge in March......... ideas?? Maybe a payment a day on one of our debts, or a £10 a day challenge or similar.

  • I am in a kick up the bum mood today, am about to kick myself in fact

    Who wants kicking for what????

    An @rse kicking for all occasions:

    need to stop lusting after stuff that we can't afford: right, pack it in, if you don't look you can't get all jealous and wanty over it so put the brochures/catalogues in the recycling, don't go on the website and TURN THE TV OFF!!!!

    need to get on and ebay/ebid stuff to put the cash towards debt: right, instead of thinking about it get it all ready to roll, download turbolister (or ebid equivalent) and spend the afternoon writing glowing descriptions and taking beautiful pictures, wrap it ready for posting (don't forget to make a note of what is whatthough - lol) and weigh it so you know how much to charge

    need to clean my flat: poorandindenial (that'd be me :D), get of your lazy fat bottom and do the [strike]washing up[/strike], hang up your clean clothes, unpack from the holiday that you got back from a WEEK ago, clean the bathroom, [strike]tidy your lounge[/strike] (well almost) and bedroom, [strike]hoover[/strike] and wash the floors - oh and while you are there don't foget to throw all the old tat away and actually PUT things away instead of just moving piles of crap around. And some shredding wouldn't go amiss either.
