Well today i have not spent anything yet woohoo!! Last nights pole lesson went great cracked a move i've been trying to get for ages so really pleased (how sad am i?!) Still decideing on the abseil as i think i'd like to live a bit longer.....haha! I will be spending later as i'm going to pay my provident lady double trying to get rid of it ASAP i'm so annoyed at myself for even getting one in the first place! Have resisted temptation to smoke! I'm off to email my tutor and see if i can have a bit longer to finish my last two assignments. Then DD and i are going to paint some picutres

Pole dancing - I'm impressed ad ever so sightly jealous. Congrats on the NSD and how did the painting go - could you sell some on ebay

Morning people!! I'm planning a NSD today which is hard as friday is usually my treat day!!! Managed to get through to tax credits yesterday wahooo!!! They said it is all sorted and updated so fingers crossed. Listed some items on ebid, checked or any onepoll surveys (none yet today!) did my tombola free play....i'm 4 off £500 now how good would that be? haha! Have been given some great advice from payplan so i am going to act on that now, have a few letters to get ready to post tomorrow, then do some worksheets with DD

LOL NSG -It's fantastic exercise i ended up getting a pole for in my house as i don't like trying really difficult moves infront of people i get beetroot face syndrome! So i can practise privately at home the BIG moves i want to try i'm sure i'll end up in A&E soon but it's so much cheaper and soooo much more fun than the gym! LOL I don't think they would go on ebay i decided to let me strict mother face drop for a few hours and we did finger painting (urghhhhh!) but she enjoyed it so much and the mess was worth it!! Think we shall stick to pencils today though hows your morning been?

Don't think I could chance the pole in my house - OH might get ideas (completely wrong ideas but wouldn't want him to get his hopes up!!!).

I love finger painting but DS feels he is a little too old (@4!!) but I think you never grow out of finger painting - or glitter!

KatieShopstoomuch

Oh glitter i love glitter but i keep that for when DD is at grannys house....Hahahaha! Well yesterday i stuck to my meal plan and managed a week worth of shopping for £30. Paid £10 off capital one not much but anything extra will bring it down quicker - i hope! Put £1.40 in my loose change jar will need to get change bags soon it's mounting up fairly quickly! Got some surveys finished on onepoll. Today i have a mountain of housework to do so that should stop me spending anything as i'll be indoors most of today, might take DD to park later if it stays nice and dry although the last few days have been soooooo unpredictable. Also going to enter some competitions fingers crossed!

Scarey thing is i have to get euros for holiday as i got next Sunday, i'm leaving it until next Saturday to save as much as possible then get it changed at post office as it's open Saturday mornings i think, will double check though.

Also have to renew car tax, got DVA form through and usually it says it can be done at the post office but there is no mention of the post office can you still do it there or does it have to be posted off or done over the phone?

Got car tax sorted. Got holiday money sorted and limited to 110 euros. May get some more if i have to but instead i paid off £60 from my personal loan i have. I think 110 euros should be enough maybe stretch to 150 as i'm going all inclusive and only plan on visiting two small places which i have discount vouchers for. Off to bed now for me cannot believe what time it is and i'm still awake opps!

Had a NSD today Which is just as well as i spent quite a bit yesterday!! Today i've defrosted freezer as i'm going to bulk cook at the end of the week and make lots of meals to be frozen as when i come back from holiday i will be skint and also will have a lot more studying to do so it will be handy if i have stuff already made.

Listed a few larger items i have to sell on gumtree so maybe they will sell! Didn't drive anywhere today either so saved on petrol And added a lot of change i found in washing machine & under bed (of all places) to my sealed pot lol

Morning all!!! How are all the DFW's getting on? I had another final response from capital one regarding my other account claims and they are only offering half although the money would be so good right now i'm going to take it to FOS and try to get almost the full amount. I'm going on holiday for a while later first trip starts on a boat so have made lots of food up for myself and DD so i won't have to spend anything because the prices are so high!

Been keeping up to date with comps and won a hanna montana DVD yesterday yay DD will love it!

Put some more coins in my sealed pot it's getting full up so will be able to empty it when i get back, get it changed and pay it off something.

Daughter informed me she'd like a horse when she's older lmao! Isn't that every little girls dream?? It isn't going to happy unless i marry a rich footballer (Which also isn't going to happen) but i'l have to get debt free asap, get my degree finished and get a career that will allow her to do a few lessons a month bless her!

She goes to a dance class and a gymnastics class in the term evenings and i won't stop these even though it would cut costs i would just feel so guilty for her losing out!
