  • Thanks for the message of support on my diary, thought I should check yours out!!!

    You know that the 47 months is just a worse case scenario, so just focus on getting it lower and lower, if you could plough double that into it you would have it paid off much sooner!!

    i have just read your diary through too. You are doing really well. What about spicy sausage pasta. I would put a link but not sure how to. Its on the bbc website and is quite yummy, quick and cheap. must start thinking about our dinner for tonight as time is getting on. Have you done your meal plan yet?

    hey ya slm thank you for coming over to my diary, no still haven't done a meal plan, should really be doing it i suppose, my problem is I have all these lovely plans and energy but noooo motivation which makes everything that little bit more difficult.

    But you're right I need to get on and do that, thanks for the nudge in the right direction. ;)

    hmmm spicey sausage pasta, will have a look on the bbc website, thank you :D

    oooh meant to say earlier, have changed my cahoot direct debit to £200 a month, it's a long way off the £400 I need to find to pay it off in the time scale I want but It's a start as the dd was at £125... so I'm getting there.

    Also just worked out that October is going to be an expensive month, it is my two nephews birthdays and my step mums, and I'm off out with my friend on saturday hmmmm not sure how far my £135 spending money is going go but I will absolutely try my best to keep within it......

    ahhh skint student nurse, bless you what a lovely thing to say, I can't believe I've inspired somebody. That makes me want to try even harder and get these down so that I can be even more of an inspiration.

    Please do keep reading, having people update is really motivating.
