had a good day yesterday, even managed to get a bit of cross stitch out at the end of the day!

Had a bit of a lie in this morning and going to go to the gym later i think.

Should have a NSD today which is cool. Bought a few bits yesterday but still plenty left in my house keeping.

Hi Louise
Just wanted to say well done on all you have achieved so far - I know how hard it is to budget when you are self employed and never have a 'set' wage - It makes doing an accurate SOA almost impossible, At the moment, we too have a similar amount owing to yourselves and run our own online business which is our only source of income (apart from tax credits/child benefit and a small p/t job I have) - There is no rhyme or reason or pattern to what we might sell and when (so frustrating!) anyway I wish you all the best. You are still very young and hopefully by the time you are my age (36) you will be sorted and on your way to planning a great future.
I will subscribe to your thread now
(p.s - I have a diary too, if you are interested? - there is a gap in the middle of about a year, but its all there!)

Just wanted to add my best wishes - you're on the way to paying your first debt and there's a lot of support out there. when I started my diary 2 weeks ago, I thought i was on my own, but already I have friends motivating and helping me. Together we'll do it!!

missoptimistic - tell me about it! Being self employed suck big time sometimes. Most months we are like " yay, we paid rent!" how did you find the xmas period and when we had all the bloody snow? we were really quiet so that didnt help but seem to be making a come back in time for this months bills! x
