    I also thought it was because you are farming,,lol
  • I love my cooker - having to watch a tendency to overcook things in the oven as old oven was so useless had to cook everything on highest setting and twice as long :mad:

    No not farming keeping me off here especially now we have new farmville toolbar so can keep eye on farm whilst browsing :D just quiet on the debt front plodding along unlike taxi who despite saying things are quiet is storming ahead :T waiting for payday but as that is not until end of April a bit of a wait.

    Strange dream night before last dreamt bank closed our account because £69 overdrawn and I was furious tellling them we had been with them over 25 years and anyway it had to be a mistake as there was money in the account- discussing it with OH wondered what had caused it as I remarked to him for the first time in years I am not worried about money as everything is under control - that is such a good feeling :)

    2023: the year I get to buy a car
  • Someone reminded me in the last couple of days how important it is to keep posting - you never know how something you post may help someone else ;)

    So here we go with more drivel :rotfl:

    Had my new Debenhams card today I thought it was yet another store card I only use them to get the opening offer and then every so often they offer me a new one - silly people :D

    Anyway turns out it is a credit card with a 5K limit and a 12 month 0% BT offer - and the really good thing is that I don't need it :D so i will pay off the small balance for what i bought in 3 months time when the interest free runs out and then dispose of it - telling OH about it and his comment was oh so different to 18 months ago when any offer like that would have been snapped up :j:j:j

    I know I am still a long way from being debt free but it is little moments like this that makes me realise how far we have come.

    End of the month tomorrow and half way to next payday end of April seems a long way off wishing my life away :) so I will have to assess how I am doing budget wise - I don't think it is too bad especially as Christmas has only just gone.

    Right off to check the bank ac and do my PAD to Mint

    Have a good day folks

    Yeah - that's good news DT.:j I would double check how long the other 0% cards are on for, just in case others may run out at an inconvenient time...
