Pen's phase 2 -the long debt slog and de-clutter

penelopedee_2

A NS day for me today although its been horribly stressful and hectic - but I'm home now and my darling hubbie is cooking me spaghetti B for tea. He's even made me a cup of tea so I'm not tempted to find some wine in the fridge, what more could I ask for

Choc's diary has given me a kick up the butt again regarding debt, so I'm going to re-budget etc later and see if I can make anymore savings. I've also had a chat with DH about looking for work as I don't have any more spare hours left to do a third job.

Luckily in my main job I got a tiny rise this month, which is much appreciated

Hope the spag bowl was delicious and that you are relaxing after a stressful day. Glad my debt gave you a kick up the butt :rotfl:I find reading others diaries really motivational, I could spend hours on here....if I had the time

Have a lovely evening x

Another annoyingly busy day at work but I haveachieved a lot and it should make the rest of the week much easier. I did spend today, treated myself to a new diary and notebook in readiness for my course - thought I would start in style if nothing else.

I;ve spent most of this evening finishing off work and sort out my course stuff, so was quite suprised by the PM thing as I haven't seen any TV all night. I thought they would be arguing about this for weeks.

I also forgot it was Tuesday so didn't go walking with my friend. I really need to get back into the habit though as I'm feeling unfit and lazy. At the moment I don't know how I'm meant to fit everything in though.

No de-cluttering done apart from the course paperwork. Haven't even ironed DS trousers for school tomorrow, they'll have to wait for the morning now (unless I can get one of the cats to sleep on them to flatten them out a bit )

I have just spent all of my day off driving round and round town to appointments and meetings :mad: I'm going to need match sticks to keep my eyes open soon.

But it was a NS day today and everyone is well and in good spirits at Pen Towers. I've even managed to get through the ironing mountain.

I de-cluttered the kitchen worktops as well - OH keeps dropping the post there and then dumping more stuff on top. Its only tiny and looks twice the size again now all the junk has gone.

Nothing else exciting to report but I am debating buying another couple black Tshirts for work - can't decide if I really need them or not.

Sounds like a very productive day Pen! :T I worked today and OH managed to clean the house, make the beds, batch cook corned beef hash in the slow cooker, and wash and dry 2 loads of washing!! Not bad!! Oh and he went out for a run and did the school runs and dropped my bro off to the next town for a driving lesson!

I hope you get chance to relax a bit soon. You'll end up running yourself into the ground!

Morning Kel, once I've finished work this afternoon - that is it for the day. I am going to park my bottom on the sofa and it is staying there all evening .... (well thats the plan, anyway) :rotfl::rotfl:

I am so determined I am having a nice leisurely weekend after the week from h*ll with trips to the hospital, spending all my free time driving around and trying to fit in two jobs! I need some me time.

Up early today (with a nice clear head) and the third load of washing is about to go on the line. All I need to do now is:

Hoover downstairs
Wipe the bathroom down
Drop DS off with friends in town for an overnight visit

Then thats it - its me time

Oh and we are skint as usual so I can't do any shopping trips.
