    Not much to report, quiet weekend, dd got me some toilettries and a new nightdress, bless her, fun weekend got something stuck in my eye, did it Saturday, but all I'd had off his lordship was watching the football, then Sunday mothers day, so went to the hospital yesterday eye was killing, apparently what was it has put 4 scratches across the eye, so nor on ointment, which means can't see out of left eye! go back in a week.

    Don't think I do things by half xx

    I have had the most wonderful mse day in Argos....... all on dads credit card!!

    I was originally having a new TV for bday, flat screen posh jobbie, but my camera broke:mad:, I've got a TV that works well, just that as its old style (18 yrs old), still works.

    Choose a camera for £60, thought very mse, so mum said as Bailey broke your necklace, go and choose one...spend upto £120 on everything....

    Whoops - with the camera, half price memory card - yes plz, then the chain I wanted was too thin, so had a posher one -

    Then text off mother (met friend for lunch bday treat), get some earrings off Bailey and a pr of dd,

    I choose sleepers, £15 - needed some off Bailey, Miss Hoodie choose some with the lady from Argos,

    The total bill

    £205.00:eek:

    Got back to the car, gave him his card back and said all sorted, he hasn't asked the price!! x

    I've paid £50 off capital one, the minimum was £17, so plzed with that.

    I decided to snowball my cards, looks odd with figures all over the place, my original plan was pay off Capital One then snowball, but thought that system knows more than me.

    So any extra instead of going off the biggest apr, (39%), I'll chuck it at capital one, see if there give me a increase in credit (currently £600) lowest limit of cards, but there balance transfer is 15% apr, so anything that can go across be better in the long run.

    I've got couple broken chains, was going to cost £40 to get one chain fixed, hence new one for bday, its been fixed twice, and Bailey broke it, bless him, so go and see how much get, last stash broken jewellery was £155. Put that up safe - got a plan for it........

    Know the next couple of months will be basic payments, but had a gd blast so far, know beat the 5k, personally aiming for 6k.
