    This is such a good idea! I'm going to start off small as my mind is pretty much blown with life in general at the mo. But add things each week, and hopefully tick off the ones i've done.

    Ok..focus..

    1.Write to Talk Talk over the outstanding bill that I do not owe them but they think i do. (battle must commence this week)

    2.Clean out my bunnys and hammys and take bin bags up the dump afterwards.

    3.Put some oil in the car.

    4. Start thinking about how im going to sort out the debt probs and what to do...and yes...ask for help and not be afraid to do so.

    5.Write to bank and cancel the stupid additions to my account which cost me a fiver a month.


    My tasks until Friday begin now...
