HEALTH WARNING - DO NOT READ WITH DELICATE TUMMY!

Good morning everyone

Still no snow here, which is good. I've not had the best start to the morning - woke up to the sound of the dog being sick all over the bedroom floor and it spashing all over the side of the bed, so had to scrub the carpet down several times and strip the bed. OH's away but he'd have usually 'been tasked with' this lol so i miss him even more now. Somehow, i ended up with a wet foot so i've had to scrub myself down too (not that OH would've done that bit lol).

A day of housework planned for me i think, how are all the fly ladies going? Is it still working? What's everyone else got planned?
I hope we're going to have anoher xfactor party tonight I hope munchki's not banned us from her wall! x

Morning Elly, Morning Em!

Em - are you hogging all the snow???? We had a dusting yesterday which has gone in most places and frozen over where it hasn't

I love the idea of putting a deadline on this thread Elly and then starting the 2011 version I am so glad that I joined this thread back in January - before that I had mainly only lurked on threads (for years!!) and not posted, now I don't hesitate in giving my two penneth loL!

Are we going to start the 2011 thread on 1st January or a little earlier so that anyone else who wants to join the new can?????

Have a good day all I will be submitting my AVOn order today and my Sales Leader thinks I have done really well for a first order, yay!! It should have earnt me in the region of £70 after taking out my costs of joining and buying my books Wish I had done it years ago!! lol!

afternoon all, sorry been MIA, hoope everyone is well and warm, joey, paula great to see you back. def think having a cut off point mid december is a good idea to get geared up for next year. Elly loved the next chapter! did DS paper round this morning even although i was out last night - am not that cruel to put him out in that! have had crazy thunder and lightening here today, away to get the knitting out today and get scarf orders finished. will pop back later.

Well I'm up for the challenge next year, but can I do it differently as wages will be zero? :eek:Through saving money here and there, ebay and any work that comes along, because I will need any money I can get to pay the bills and it won't go into savings, is that ok!!
I hope I have explained myself ok.

Trying - tbh that is how I have been this year which is why I don't have an exact total, everything has been spent along the way - oops! The beauty of this challenge is that it is VERY flexible and can suit everybody!!

elly68

trying hard i think a lot of people found with the challenge that thats what happened to the money anyway i wonder if we should make it a clean up your finances challenge like have weekly challenges to make sure we say get the cheapest gas,meal out, tickets,tv,and always use quidco and topcash back and see what total or can you earn extra money in 2011 or how about a clear a credit card challenge ???????
