Thanks Red im getting better each day.
Today is a typical spend day for me. DH at work, Im at home and money in the bank. I would usualy go to town, draw £20-50 from the bank, without any thought at all of what would be left to pay my bills. So my plan for today is wrap up my chrisrmas presents and then thats all that done. As I have bought them all with £10 to spare. :j another thought do i spend or save the £10. thats another thing pulling me to the shops. But I have got to fill in time untill 5pm, so i need to think hard and keep myself busy with more worth while things than going and spending my bill money and my savings :j:j:j though they be very small, ive never had any before,of course whether they there at the end of the month is another matter.
Logging on here every day and rambling on does me the power of good. I feel that once ive told you's all about it and my plans, i have to carry them through :A
Did I tell you I got all my bumf from college, its all filled in and returned. So realy looking forward to January.
Have a Fab day everyone

Sit on the tenner Bloo! You're doing so well.
How about you just delay spending it.....that kind of psychology usually works on my brain, lol. Just think of all the goodies you could get in the January sales with that £10.
Hope you manage to keep yourself occupied on this testing day :j You can do it!

Hiya Red, oo yes i do have a savings account now :j, I wil put it in and seehow it feels. That is such a new thing for me. i hope the feeling i get, will over power the feeling to spend it. I have not got a start date for college as its a distance learning course, so i will just get everything through the post. its a 12 week course. I have to attend college for at least 10hrs during that 12 weeks. to hand in my work, have it marked and chat with my tutor. I am so excited, my friends daughter, goes to the same college and had said "oh tell me when you in college and you can come and have coffee and lunch with me and my friends" Ar bless her, imagine me having lunch at college with the 18yr olds.

Hiya Katie-Pixie, i have had it sitting for 4 days now and every time i see it, i think about it, so i think i have being delaying it. Usualy i would not think twice about spending it. January Sales. I am not planning on getting any clothes because I have black bags full of clothes that do not fit me (too small) (thats another things to sort in the new year, like 1,000s of others) but i am going to pick up my special christmas card, for my mam and sister and children and my christmas wrap, that sort of thing.
Thankyou for popping in a reading

Hiya good Morning Everyone. Another test day today. i am dropping DH at work, then going into town. I have a list, plan is to stick to it :rolleyes:.
Well i have decided not to wait until after Christmas and New Year to tackle the LBs. It was a real struggle to get my boots on this morning.
1 I could not bend over to put them on as the fat round my middle would not allow me to bend that far :eek:
2. When I did get them on, they are supposed to come up to just under my knee but only come to my calf, (cant get them past there) :eek: luckerly they are black leather ,so look quite trendy scrunched down.
So I am going to start now, if i wait till after the holidays, it will only be and extra 4-5lbs to get off.
I have calmed down now after my rant with Welcome Finance and a not very nice Person, in a new thread i posted yesterday.
Hope you are all well and it will be good when it Christmas eve and we are all sorted.
Have a fab day all
