    Well I've got a snow day from work today - it's nice having a free day to catch up on things - going to do so going to try and get ahead with listing things on amazon and may even have a look at ebay; do some surveys and some batch cooking. Most important thing is to avoid popping to the shops!Enjoy ur day everyone.
  • Morning, I felt well enough to go to work today so trudged the 22miles there only to be told that it's cancelled. :rotfl:..... a day of listing, chores and working for my Mom and Dad (my unofficial 2nd job as I owe moneyy to them)

    Hope everyone is ok and good to hear that you got your milk Lamarsi

    Was going to have a nice lie in but instead I have dragged myself out of bad and written myself a list.

    1, Deep clean
    2, Find more things to list on ebay moro and take nice pics of them
    3, Spend a few hours "crafting" ready to list more things on ebay
    4, make a snow man
    5, Cry and stamp my feet until my mother agrees to make me her magic winter stew :D

    Stay safe everyone and enjoy the snow x

    morning!

    I was quite dissapointed with the weak 2 inches of snow we got this morning considering we were told to expect the "worst snow in 30 years!" ... perhaps that will come later??? and i'll be stranded at work???

    anywho, nice one on the peeps who got a snow day off you lucky little moo's!!!!! hope you have a nice day!

    still no payments to make towards 10k as I'm awaiting diagnosis of my car problems! :mad:

    hope everyone has a nice day and enjoys the snow!!!!
    I have learnt from my in-debt days....never again!

    So can this bloomin' thread! :rotfl:Must go to bed, must go to bed, must go to bed!

    Ditto that one, I turned my PC off last night only to sit in the living room, worry I'd missed something so got the ipod out and used that to read up. Tee hee!

    Snow day for me too so hoping to be good and get things done, including catching up on some school work as did none over the hols! Should be a NSD day that way though.

    Have a good day all and well done shadydaz for working out the total! Sounds good so far! :T
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...

    Well I just about made it into work this morning, although did resemble frosty the snowman! :rotfl:

    I haven't made much more progress since my last post, but have posted a few things on Amazon so fingers crossed I'll make some pennies there. Need to have a hunt around the house to see what else I can sell! x

    hi everyone, updated my siggi soo tempted to pay the extra 30 odd pound to make it a grand but i'll prob leave myself short paying something else esp as i've no work at the moment so i will try to resist! I'd just like to explain why my amounts may seem high at the moment(well they do to me). I'm a full time student but when not at uni or placement i have a taxi which i drive at wkends and evenings ( the only time i've seen the student bar is when we walked thru it to go to our defence class :( ) at christmas it's our busy time and i have abit of extra income but come summer and school hols thats when things really slow down and i struggle to make even minimum payments. Lucky my bursery (i'm doing nursing ) covers my morg so i have to find the 250 secured loan and 180 for crap quest (should be payed by sept:T) as well as bills etc and sometimes food and clothing lol and I'm hoping to leave uni almost if not completly debt free:o
    get rid of all the pounds by summer !!
    weight loss 3/42 lb
    Debt from 1st March:
    Was -£8900 NOW-£5000 PAID- £3900
    Get rid of the weight, pay the debt, then get myself a campavan! :T
