A little addition, as I have just walked the dog for an hour, the walk did me good to, nothing like the great British Summer for dog walking, cagoule on and walking boots, and I'm covered - literally!

Afternoon all!
Been supply teaching at what must be teh worst school in Britain today - if most of the kids don't have an ASBO, are pregnant or in prison by the time they're 16 it'll be a miracle! You have to feel sorry for them really (after ducking!)

As for DFW stuff....

• Earned a days wage at least!
• Walked dog for free exercise
• All food from stores
• Took packed lunch
• Check banks
• Do surveys
• Attempt to plan something for school tmw but not much!
• Had gas and elec bills - not too bad, elec in credit and gas in less debit than before!
• Do one load of washing and ry naturally
• Stay in and watch the soaps and have a bath

That's it for today...... off for a lie down in a darkened room!

Right, going to head home now. In true DFW style I am walking and IT BETTER NOT RAIN. Shall be grumpy for at least 30 seconds when I get home if it does....but then I'll have a brownie :j

30 today!!!!!!!!! I WILLL be debt free ( apart from my mortgage) by the time i am 31 ( my debt free date is july 2011 but i;m determined to be celebrating this time next year!!) THAT is my committment to myself!!

Off out for a curry tonight - I am SOOOOO exited as its such a treat since Jan i've hardly had take out and I don't think i've been out for a meal so should be lovely!!

I've had a pay rise which i found out about today!! Hurrah and its beeen backdated to april which means 265 extra in my pay packet -Ii think it increase my pay by about £50 but still - a nice birthday suprise!

I'm going to do a new plan and work out how to shave a month off my debt free date!! I've had an email from asda offering me a 12 0% interest credit card which i think might be a good plan as both mine run out in Jan... But when to apply for it i just dont know.

My house looks like a bomb has hit it so will need to do a bit of tidying later. Have been to the gym before work this mornign so that was great - I'm goign to try also to lose 4 stone before i'm 31 - I have 12 months...

Got lots of lovely gifts - i'm feeling very well looked after today.

Hope you have all had a lovely day - see you later

BIG WELCOME TO Mazzy and thriftyscotslass - this thread really is the best for keeping on track - i read through every day even if i'm too tired to post - I started on here on 1st jan and have paid off 6500 and cleared my gradute loan ( I will make the last payment tomorrow) I have also cleared a credit card and just have 2 more credit cards and a santandar loan to pay off... I wouldn't / couldnt have done it without this thread to keep me going... so keep posting xxx
