The 12 week Debt-Life *Achieve something* Plan - WEEK 7

Sun_Addict

Progress to date:

1. Pay £1200 off debt - paid off £800 so far just waiting for payday next week to pay off the other £400.

2. Lose 7lbs - lost 3lbs to date, need to put in some real effort now!!

3. Buy all Christmas presents - just got to get a couple of little stocking fillers and a bit of something for OH then I'm done!

4. Pay/save for all March holiday associated costs - this was going really well, just had spending money to save when I threw a fly in the ointment by booking next August's holiday!! I've paid the £200 deposit for the villa and now have £817.91 to pay for flights by 8 December. So will now be saving March spending money during January and February.

5. Ebay some bits and bobs I've got - not done this yet but plan to do it this Sunday.

Hope everyone else is making good progress!! Nearly there!!

Hi Jassa
I'm also shocked like tirlittan about the 81 pairs of shoes! I thought I was bad!

Yes, I got a few comments on the flylady thread as well!!! Have sold some since but they are all neatly stored in under-the-bed boxes (getting very flylady here!). Think I have a bit of a hoarding problem :rotfl:..... haven't dared admit how many cupboards/wardrobes of clothes there are...... :eek:

You can send some my way... :D

wow 81 pairs of shoes. my DH thinks i have a lot. i might have to tell him that actually i'm not that bad!! :rotfl:

I'm feeling a bit deficient in the shoe department! I've got 1 pair each of Black work shoes, Black trainers, Black strappy evening sandals and black Birkenstocks plus some brown Birks and pink Birks and that's it! I could do with another pair of work shoes though.

Not doing too bad with my plan so far:

* Have done two of my three power walks this week
* Have eBayed and MSE-ed everyday so far
* I'm halfway through my Generation Kill library book
* Had an early night last night
* I'm up to date with laundry (Even though it's not on the list it's the thing that gets out of control) 4 loads to do today and the last one is going round and round as we speak.

On the minus side I had two chocolate fingers yesterday and didn't even realise that I should have said "no Thank you" until about 3 hours later - so the no chocolate rule is not exactly ingrained into my consciousness yet! :rolleyes::D

I hope everyone else is doing well,

Love Jacks xxx
