  • I'm back for good now, am feeling so much better after my Op, am surprised how well I have felt considering, my parents have gone home today (they have been here since Thursday last week), so back to the grindstone, life carries on as before now. It's strange being able to eat anything again, I find myself looking at fatty foods and thinking 'I can't have that' then I remember I can now, seems strange that it is all over but am glad that I can get back to debt busting now.

    Have sold just under £50 of stuff on Ebay today, have been listing lots of stuff on my Business account and have listed 17 items on my personal account, I'm on a mission to clear everything by the end of March so that I can start again in the new tax year - will certainly be a challenge as I have so much stuff to sell but there is no stopping me now.

    Am awaiting my A&L statement to come through, minimum payment is £25 (I looked it up online) but am waiting for the statement before I pay it. Going to be trying to pay as much off of A&L as possible as I owe £6,000 on there and the interest rate goes up to 18.9% now.

    Am still going to be taking it a bit easier for another week or two but hopefully the money will roll in now as it's nearly Xmas.

    Bye for now.

    Good morning!I've just done bit of counting and there should be about £40 left from last month's budget (get paid on 15th) so I think half of that goes to holiday fund and half to pay more off card. On 27th I should get paid back pay from last job. Fingers crossed it's around £200, that's what I'm hoping anyway, but can't really count on it.

  • Morning everyone!

    Everyone is doing so well, and so far into the month as well! My day started off well, as I had a survey to do from Valued Opinions. It only took me 5 mins and earned £1. Should reach the £200 mark for AQA today as well so that will mean some Xmas presents and a nice new outfit for me!

    I won't have anything more to pay now til payday so I hate this part of the month but I would like to break through the £1000 off 15k mark by Xmas!
