New challenge starting today, which is to make £88 from ebay sales during Feb to pay for Guiding Census and pocket money for DD's school trip which is not factored into the boxes so far.

Clothes all sorted and stashed, repaired or generally much tidier, and ebay pics taken for challenge.

Made a tray of Twinks for pudding - had some cranberries and coconut in my baking cupboard so shoved them in, and they went down a treat for everyone.

Urghhh, listed the 10 things on ebay - can see why I wasn't keen to get started - took ages to do! Oh well, another load tomorrow!

:mad::mad::mad: Blew all budgets and NSD's for the month by buying £25 present! Arghhh, I'm dooooooooomed to another skint month and herein lies the reason why I'm so bloomin' skint because I impulse buy ... and now you know my bad secret!

Off to the naughty corner I slouch :(:(

However, with my goodgirl hat on I have finally sorted out some of the B&G paperwork, done all the printing out for Thurs night, sorted out some of the holiday forms, and actually constructed a to do list, so I can knock them off at the same time. So, although I'm in the naughty corner, I probably deserve a little smile !

I cannot seem to balance my bank account and I don't know why or where money has gone too - it's about £100 awry, from the refund from BG, but I can't find it anywhere :mad:, it can't have just disappeared. There's far too much goes in and out of the various accounts each month, drives me mad - think I need to go and do an accountancy degree!!! Can't be another hidden debt, I think I've owned up too them all now :A! And I'd see it on the account anyway. Arghhhh:mad:

:o I found it - I forgot to calculate that there was still £170 income to arrive into the account! This is why I'm NOT an accountant!!! Anyways, have juggled with the figures, and am going to pay a bit extra to CC2 which is the highest one, to try and get that down.

Had an exceptionally unproductive day today, and am cross as a result :mad:

At least I found the missing money

A couple of my ebay items have now got bits on as well - so that's brilliant news!!!
