did some shopping today £31 but that is halved between me and my mu. just need to get some milk now.
had to order a new bank card as mine has started playing up.
need to get a bank statement as i may have found a new house.

no debts paid today as i cant really afford it but my ex has said that he is giving me £40 on sunday! wahey, didnt even ask for it.

OMG! one of those days when aint feeling really good. started the day by opening a message in my facebook from a guy calling me a tramp even though they dont know me. you see my ex started seeing this girl, now hes said he aint interested in her and he still in love with me, so now she gone psycho and trying to start on me. She must be in her 40s and shes 8 months preggers, but shes getting her sister and son to start now aswell. Dont need the hassle especially as it has nothing to do with me, but shes trying to get me involved and i will not rise to her idiotic games.

Anyway, feeling like crap. weighed myself which made me unhappy, my backs hurting like mad and im sooo bored all the time. trying my best to lose this weight but it just goes straight back on as i cant keep it up because i do really well then something knocks me back and i comfort eat. sick of being on a downer all the time.

bit of good news is that i should have a house by end of november if all goes well, just need to find £425 for my first months rent.

hopefully i have a new house by end of november. just got to fill out HB forms and get all my paperwork together. need to find £425 first months rent, but have still got stuff to sell, when i get the digital camera back from my sister. Brought a couple of things today, like a kettle canister and cleaning products ready for when i move in and hopefully my brother in law will help me move as he has a van.

Got £40 off my ex today so will be giving that to my mum later when she gets home from work, which means i only owe her £160 now. Dont think i will be able to make any debt repayments till 9th november due to not having much money, and they i will only be able to make the minimum payments on them all.

It halloween so i will be taking my boys and 2 of my nieces out trick or treating, when they get bk from their dads. Saying that i should really go and sort out the outfits for them all, but too busy watching football.

Hopefully i wont be spending too much this week as i only have about £20 left.

oh also need to update that i went to asda yesterday to get my son some new school shoes because his were wrecked and there was a sale rail. couldnt help but have a look and i brought a pair of trousers @£2, 2 tops @£1 each and a jumper @£1. Bargain shop for me and they are really nice stuff, so even though i spend £5, it is stuff i needed really and if i do finally lose this weight i wont mind giving it away to the charity shop because it didnt cost me alot. my sons shoes cost £10, but he def needed them as it looked like 1 off his shoes could talk.lol

Just a quick update. my lovely sons and 2 of my nieces went trick or treating tonight. not only did they get a few sweets but when we got bk home they counted the pennies that some people had given and they put them in my penny jar and said i could have them. bless them, it was only just over a pound but its something.:D they didnt have to but the oldest (my niece whos 8) got hers out and said i could have it then they all did. i love them when they are like that.:T

Well today i have just brought some milk, butter and ciggies. Start the healthy eating again tomorrow to get rid of this tummy.

Totted up my payments made towards the debt for october, and now i have paid off over £1000 just between august,september and october. Not doing too bad, if i say so myself.

just about to go and bid on a few houses.

Got my bank card today, so transferred £20 from my online saver to my main account as i am skint. only spent £3 today though.
My sons off school tomorrow and dont know what to do to keep the boys entertained. the forecast said its going to rain, so cant take them to the park. Need to get my thinking cap on, so i dont spend too much money.

Got to look into new schools for my son and see if i can get free school meals for him.

Well i have lots to do to sort out for my new house, just wish i knew what was happening but that wont happening till the weekend i think. but hopefully if i sort out a list of things to do, i will be ready. just hoping nothing happens to make it fall through. need my own space.
so things i need to do/get:

• change of school application
• free school meals application
• sort out tv licence
• freeview box(not doing sky or virgin, too expensive)
• a big shop when i move in(fill up the cupboards)
• toiletries
• sort out garage for ebay/charity shop/taking with me.
• buy a present for my mum to say thanks for putting me up recently.:A

may need to do other stuff, but cant think right now!
