Everything else is DD2s who at 9 just cries at the mention of 1 tidying :mad: and 2 getting rid of anything :mad: :mad:. DS has a fair amount but has just about enough room for it. His is all cars or various things with wheels!
Good news today is50p on free scratch card and £15 bodyshop slae to friends DIL :j . So 5 to me and 10 to MBNA.
Spends so far 1 to DD1 which I think I have already added onto total when I promised her 5 last week - she has had 3 so far.
No housework yet still got bags of kids winter /summer hats etc to sort.
Your description of dd2, I thought I was reading about my dd. She would hoard everything if she had her way, as for tidying + sorting her wardrobe, anyone would think a murder was being committed!!
xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -

Well managed good self control and didnt spend at all today even nursed the car so I didnt need to fill up. If I had it is very likely Id have brought food although I do try and find pay at pump these days.
Well then I get home and DD1 has guides - £5 subs, £6 trip 1 money owed from pre holidays and £11 trip 2 this sunday so £22 in one go. Thats the kids budget gone and DD2 was due to go to brownies. Thats 5 next week.
Oh well better get saving and earning extra.:j0 -

You've just made me realise I didn't include kids things in my SOA! Isn't amazing how little things they do just start to add up. You do sound very organised. I dread tidying their rooms and do it when they are out, as they never notice what I've thrown out1st debt - Next [STRIKE]£583.32[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£408.71 [/STRIKE] £0 :j
2nd debt - MBNA - £6,618.52
First in many many to go - baby steps and all that!
First lump sum to go - fingers crossed!
