    Glad you had a good time and well done on bringing your DFD date forward already :T
  • Hey Kayleigh! Oh lucky you having a massage, what a lovely christmas pressie! And good for you going on holiday, you lucky duck!!! Im not going anywhere this year cos Im getting married next May so in between that saving for a house and paying off 3k debt, my funds are well and truly stretched! You will have a great time and a break away will do you the world of good!

    Thats excellant news about the snowball calculator, Ive no idea when my debt will be paid (2 cards) cos I always pay over the min payment and add more on sometimes but one of my 0% deals is coming to an end though so need to look for a new deal! Im sure you were tired after the train journeys!! xx

    Morning everyone! It's a lovely sunny day today, how about where you are? I don't know what it is but whenever it's nice like today, I always feel so much more motivated so am raring to go today! :j

    Got in work at 8 so can leave at 4 today and I'm making plans of what to get up to when I get back. Here is what I have so far:

    *Take out the bins
    *Check bank accounts/credit card and update snowball with any transactions
    *Take an inventory of food in fridge, freezer and cupboards and write up grocery list.
    *Gym (13 weeks til holiday so got to get started on this to get into my bikini!!)
    *Check out these free scratchcards I keep hearing people mention!

    So there's a few bits to keep me going, I'm sure I'll think of more I need to do but hopefully I'll be in the gym so long I won't have time for anything else :p
    2019 will be my year!!

    Ok well I didn't get to the gym but am definitely going tomorrow. Instead I have been playing bingo and scratchies and winning! :j Have come away with a profit of £15 so not bad for my first day.

    As for the list:

    [STRIKE]*Check bank accounts/credit card and update snowball with any transactions[/STRIKE]
    *Take an inventory of food in fridge, freezer and cupboards and write up grocery list.

    [STRIKE]*Check out these free scratchcards I keep hearing people mention! [/STRIKE]

    So the most important bits got left out! Lol! I will catch up tomorrow :D Good night everyone x

    Doh! No gym again for me tonight! Mum got some movies out of blockbusters at the weekend and we have 2 to watch before they have to go back tomorrow! What a shame :p So dinner and movies on mum tonight :j

    Hope everyone is good and happy today - I love sunny days like this! Just went out for a walk on my lunch break and feel pretty happy (which makes a nice change! :rotfl:)
    2019 will be my year!!

    Hi Kayleigh, its amazing what difference the sunshine makes isn't it!
    Can't wait for it to start showing its face more often. Well done on reducing the DFD, I will need to have a look at the snowball to check that part out.

    Morning everyone!

    Thanks Aunty Em, it really is worth doing - I'm finding myself on there all the time now putting transactions in and seeing if I made one extra payment here and there how much it would help by etc etc. It really is motivating me :D

    Not a lot to report today really. Got Weight Watchers tonight (again I haven't been good at all really) and then afterwards I've got a burger mystery shop! :rotfl:

    I love the sunshine! I've even had washing out on the line in the last few days :).

    KP - get to the gym! I hate making myself go, but once I'm there I actually quite like it (:eek: No really!). Mind you, I always feel rather puny next to the guys doing a million sit-ups; I'm a panting wreck after trying to move my shoulders slightly off the floor 10 times :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: .

    Tho' saying that, if you've any metal holding you together, don't go on the powerplate thingy. I could tell you a story about my friend but I don't want to put you off :p:D.

    Happy debt-busting (I've manged to lock myself out of internet banking so not much getting done my end at the mo).

    I know, I know. I really need to go to the gym! But things just keep coming up now which take up all my time, tonight it's food shopping!

    I do really need to get back into it though, I have been really unhealthy recently! I will def be going Sunday though, can't go on Saturday as I have 5 mystery shops to do and then all the reports to write up! :eek: So much for a relaxing weekend!!

    Am going to see Alice in Wonderland at the flicks tomo so am excited about that. Has been soooo long since I went to the cinema! And I've not seen a 3D film before so should be interesting :cool:
    2019 will be my year!!
