Yukkibear - The debt free life begins with a whole new set of challenges

The kits sound good and great you have had good feedback on them.

Ohh race for life, that is good of you to do. I keep meaning to do it each year but never do. I did cheer my Mum on though. Let me know when you are getting sponsorship money.

Thanks Wendz I will. I'm doing it to get fit as well as raising money for charity.

Still so tired this morning, gym later this afternoon when I am DD free, so hope I can do better than I did on Saturday.

My run yesterday was good. I did interval 2mins running and 3mins walking for 30mins.

So tonight I changed it and did 3mins run to 2 mins walk. Found that hard but got through it so hopefully friday will be easier.

I have worked out a budget for the month and chucked surplus into a savings acc. My current acc looks sad and lonely with not a lot in it, so I am on a mission now to gain extras which I can fill it back up with. I am going to give myself £50 spends which has to include my hair cut which is my 6 weekly treat now, and the rest has to cover all crap spending when at work etc.
Really got to be good.

Good luck with your £50 spending budget. Im sure you can do it!

Well the weekend is here thankfully. Been a long week and a worse one to come work wise next week!

I really wanted a takeaway pizza last night, and was on the edge of buying one, but then made one instead, was so pleased with myself.

Really need to sort the house today, and get some bits to list on Ebay.

Well done on resisting buying a takeaway pizza and making one instead!
Ohhh your making me hungry for one now and its only 10am! I love Dominos pizza and havent had one in months!

yukkibear

me too and me either. Still want one, but glad I didn't buy one.

Yeah, well done on your pizza. OH took me out for lunch today - it cost over £20 and was really awful, I had pasta bake with pasta which was so overcooked, we were so disappointed. Any luck with any of your jewellery (I have such trouble spelling that word!) sales? I opened a separate bank a/c yesterday for my savings with £100 so quite pleased with that. How are you getting on with the wedding savings?

wendz86

Well done for resisting the pizza and good luck with the house sort.

That's such a shame about lunch Primula. It always makes you feel crap and how you wish you hadn't bothered when it's crap.

Wedding savings are OK, nothing special, but so far on track. I do owe my credit card from some splurges, and I bought a bit of stock to sell again so need to keep track of my purchases and what I owe where etc.

The jewellery is slow, but nothing unordinary. I have plenty of ideas, so it's a case of plugging it and then selling to create something new.
