    Littlekel, your exercise routine is making my legs quake just reading about it :D Go careful you don't strain yourself! You sound very organised and motivated at the moment.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x

    Morning all!!!

    Need a proper update i think!!

    Day off today!!! :j:j:j DD2 (aged 4) has her 'date' with her 'boyfriend' today!!! She is going round his house to play! She is all ready in her spotty red dress and her handbag is by the front door!!! :rotfl::rotfl:god help me!!!

    Today checked banking and TC had put an extra £108 in :j I am expeting an extra £82. So i am a little wary this is a bit more. If my payment i get next weds is the same as normal then i will know all is okay. Soooooooo i have made an overpayment to littlewoods of £123 (includes £15 from ebay sale). So down to £176!!! I am soo pleased. Just need to pay off another £34 to get it to the £142 so i don't pay any interest! I should be able to pay the other £34 next weds. Then my overpayment of about £100 at the end of june can go to the wedding debt!

    One month knocked off my DFD!

    We have a bit of a situation with our car! Our car is technically a company car. OH's boss bought it for us 2 years ago. We traded in our car and his boss paid £8k. This was classed as OH's payrise for 2 years and to make sure he stayed there. He is quite instrumental in the moving forward of the business. Obviously if he left before 2 years he wouldn't get the car. The agreement was when 2 years hit it would be signed over to us. 2 years is next week!!! But with the fact the company isn't doing really well at the mo we are a little worried whether we will get it or not. His boss hasn't said anything. But we need to ask him pretty quickly as we don't want to renew car insurance until it is hopefully sorted. Insurers dont tend to like insuring an individual on a company owned car. So OH's insurance would he cheaper if he owned the car. If boss says no then i have worked out we have spend £2000 on that car inc trading of our car, tyres , mot, service and car tax. We have spend £2000 keeping his asset on the road so he should pay us that back

    Fingers crossed it gets signed over as it will be a huge weight off our minds!

    Good day yesterday. Got my second NSD of June. Also set my letter to orange to ask for £18 cheque for my credit. Sent another letter to Bellway Homes who conned us out of £500 and treated us like a pile of poo! Also sent a form back to the council to be put on the shared ownership list.

    Also sent 2 ebay items. Have a few more bits to put on but i will wait until sunday for free listing!!

    Exercise - yesterday cycled for an hour and a half and walked for 40 mins. Hope to walk for an hour today and do boxing for half hour.

    Thats me!!! Better go get sorted to go out for DD's date! :D:D:D:D

    Evening all

    Quick update

    Had an okay day. Spent more on a friend for her birthday than i would have liked. I bought something for £12 but then looked at the two things she got from h samuel for my birthday and she spent £25!! So i got something else for £7 and sent it off. Still classing £10 from birthday budget. Any extra has to come out of our left over money.

    Went swimming. Was a bit annoyed that a womans baby was sick in the pool - milky sick. And she started splashing it over to where i was swimming!! urgh the pool then stunk of baby vomit! Then she did it again! I got out then which cut my swimming short by 15 mins :mad:

    Got TC letter today and my overpayment was correct which is great news. That was hanging over me a bit since yesterday

    Also remembered we have somehting else to spend on. OH's friend is getting married in North Wales so we need to pay for accommodation. Looking at about £100 - £150 at the mo. £100 if we do two nights in the travelodge. Or up to £150 if we share a cottage with friends for 3 nights over the weekend. Going without the kids which will be nice. Love the girls but OH and I don't get away too much on our own.

    Talking of girl, DD1 is poorly. She suffers from headaches quite badly. Not frequently but when she gets them she ends up being sick and sleeps all the time. Told he she doesn't need to go to ballet tomorrow. She can have a restful day and i can get bits ready to put on ebay for free listing on sunday. Was doing that tonight but got drawn into welsh cottages!! I am challenging myself to 10 items on sunday.

    Exercise is going well. I have exercised for 5 and a half hours so far this week. Finished my boxing target last night, completed walking yesterday Just an hour on the wii fit over the weekend which i can fit in just fine. Feel annoyed at myself at the mo as i had a fab lolly today and a pack of mentos. Bad willpower! Plus i had a small bit of mash with my tea when i am trying to reduce my potatoe intake!!

    Right not such a quick update

    I hope everyone is well

    Will hopefully get chance to catch up on everyones diaries tomorrow morning

    I need my bed now
