Trying so hard but failing

kerron7

Thanks Naefags

I have decided to change my sig to debts as of today since i had my second LB moment.

Just waiting for DH to get paid again now so i can put my new plan into action. Looking foward to the challenge its going to be tough though after everything has come out based on his basic wage there will be about £80 left, but i have included £150 for saving for car, holidays & xmas/birthdays.

To do today

Put washing on
line dry washing
hoover downstairs
tidy utility
put mountain of clothes away

sandwiches for lunch
chilli con carne & garlic bread for tea

Had another little think and am going to pay outfit card first, american express then next. So Outfit will be gone by the end of the month yay!

Hi Kerron7

Just popped in to say good luck with your diary

thanks blue-bells

Bank is looking hideous, DH gets paid though tomorrow not that it will look that much better. Down to last £5 which i need to put in the car. Looking forward to paying some bills which is a first, got a long way to go though.

Hope DH gets his P60 soon to give figure to Tax Credits, hope it doesn't change too much else i'm going to have to rethink my plans for debt repayment.

To Do

Tidy downstairs
Take washing off line
Put washing on line
Put washing on

Lunch - Sandwiches/toast
Tea - Fish fingers, beans & mash

DH got paid an extra £98 yay, however tax credits has gone down by £115 a mth for us thats a huge amount. Hoping this will increase when i have given them DH p60 figure when it comes. Not sure why its dropped so much nothing has changed from last year can only think they have based it on estimated amount i gave them from 09-10, so we will see. Really wish we didn't rely on them but we do, so worried if we have a change of government they will be scrapped!

Have been shopping enough for 2 weeks, will only have to get bread, milk sandwich meat & a bit of fruit and veg.

Have paid Abbey today so £77 off debt!

To do

Nothing much i'm shattered today!

Will think about tea later
