    evening all.

    Hey doodles, good to have you back.
    Paying for two houses might not be very MSE, but is probably essential for your sanity. Plus the house will be sold and you will be Debt Free very soon. All the happiness your way.

    I've been quite good today, but an ad on gumtree to sell my unused canvases and a portfolio. I think I'll also put the ad at works intranet and going to try it for other stuff as well like my biking gear. Hopefully so beating ebay and paypa1 selling fees. Feeling pretty good about that as been in a tournament in Gloucester today.

    Have forgotten to send my cd's to musicmagp1e so that is a job for Monday.

    Off to bed though now as another early start and a day of vb tomorrow.

    Good Day One and All,

    How are we all today?

    DH and I have just got in from doing the food shopping. I went through all our cupboards and have worked out 24 evening meals, and what I needed to buy to top them up so its all looking good and then got DH food for lunch. Spent £50 in all, which was more than I was hoping for, but £15 of that is his lunch stuff.... so really £35 to keep us going for 3 weeks isnt too bad.....

    Going to be working through another application with DH today and then I've got some housework to be doing...

    Morning all!

    Everyone's paid their ebay items so off to post office at lunch time. Should make around £27 profit after postage and fees. :) Very pleased with that.

    Pay day on Friday. Can't wait to pay the last £235 towards virgin, but then have to wait till 21st for the last dd payment to go for it to clear. But end of this month - another debt gone!!! :D
