Hi Guys where are we all? Busy having fun i hope!
I totally scr*wed up February and by default march today...had lovely lunch and bought nice wine and vitamins and now i realise i have MOT due on 12th :eek::eek:(only know now cos renewed car tax today). I hadn't bargained or budgeted for that. I do have a car maintenance budget with about £40 in it and £80 saved(yes i know that is rubbish) so hopefully i can get the bulb, MOT and whatever repairs (cos there always are aren't there!) on that.
It's only just upsetting me now because i was doing really well and i thought i was on top of everything...which i obviously am not. It's like one step forward and 2 steps back with me every time...money, diet everything and i'm sick of it :mad::(:mad:
Rant over:o
I could have saved the money i spent on lunch (£12) and wine (2 bottles for £12) and used it on the car. So now i won't sleep until the MOT and credit card damage is done

Anyway on the plus side i got a £2 coin for my stash and loads of £1 coins which i put in for some of the awol PADs for Feb.:)

Ah Ziggles,
Don't beat yourself up. OK you may have slightly overlooked something, but we are all allowed to make mistakes. You need to have treats and also get out and mingle with society so please, please don't feel bad about it.

If you are feeling so bad about spending the £24, is there any ebaying or dog walking you can do for friends to make it up again?

And as for the diet, the weight you want to loose will fall of when your body is ready.

I hope that helps, it probably hasn't but I just wanted to say, i'm thinking about you. Do you have your own diary?

Night night.

You guys are really doing a great job. I think that even I will start putting $1 everyday to get rid of my debts. It has been a long time since I have had this debt. I think it is time to clear it now.

Hey guys...getting back on track with PADs after big f*nnywobble!
Thanks Lexie I am trying (very:p). There's no way i would give myself a personal forum for my ramblings (except these ones of course!)...somehow when my fingers hit the keyboard it all gets quite me me me, misery me, woe is me :eek::o:o:o:eek: So no, no diary i'll just abuse other people's:D
Hows everyone doing?

hi Zander...totally a good idea to do the £1 thing...every penny counts and it doesn't hurt too much to put away just that much a day.

Morning everyone! and hello to Zander. Glad you can join in.
LL talks sense Ziggles..see if there's something ext that you can find to do to make up the money for the £24.
Have paid my £1 and now off to do some competitions.

Hiya! Indeed the ladies speak sense. Catching up on my PAD and jiggling about monies. Got some stuff to ebay and hut on greenmetropolis. Let the pillaging of the cupboards and unattended goods in this house begin! :-) i've reinstated the put it away or i'll make it disappear policy hehe! Dad's first victim :-)

novagirl

Loving your policy! We had sold one of our cars to try and save some outgoings but unfortunately that's fallen through today so going to put that back on ebay today.

Waiting patiently for dad to come home this weekend so the pillaging can begin!!!!
In other news i have clawed back my PADs from everywhere and am up to date again. Yaay!!!!

novagirl

I'm still ebaying all the stuff we really don't need. Money is coming in very handy!

Hi Guys!

My car passed her MOT...totally unbelievable...some things to repair but i know i can take my time now it's passed.:j:j:T:T:beer::beer:
I am now totally up to date with PADs and despite a day that involved walking back to work because i forgot my phone:mad: and extremerly exaggerated emotional responses to just about everything...all hope is not abandoned in the land of ziggles!:D

How are we all? NDD not heard from you in ages...keeping busy?
