Well done hardly anything today even though the kids aint been here. Did a bit of cleaning up, watched the f1 and watched tele.

ex gave me £40 today. so may have to give my mum some money.

went to the library the other day and got a cook book, so i am going to write some recipes that may help me lose weight. I also need to sort out some things to put on ebay as my sister brought the camera back up today.

paid my mum £20 for the bed that she put on her card for me, so owe her another £60 for that. I havent added that as i dont see it as debt as my son really needed a new bed. plus my ex was meant to be paying for half of it.

Bit of a boring day, but figured out that before i move i must sort out my boys toys and clothes as there is soooo much stuff i could get rid off. will be doing that soon

rang the school i want to get my son in thats near the new house, and they told me they have spaces and i am going for a look around on thursday.

sorted out my kids clothes and toys today, and now have a big black bag full of stuff to take down to the charity shop. I porned my wii a couple of wees ago to help me to get money together for the baliff and it runs out on thursday, dont want to lose it so i will have to pay £15 to put it in for another month. Didnt really want to do this but if i cant afford it what else am i meant to do?

went to morrisons today and brought 6 bottles of pepsi, which were buy 1 get 2 free so it only cost me just over £3 and should have cost alot more, just goes to show where all my money goes!

paid £40 to my mum today, got some money off the ex and have done the food shopping for the week.

Got a few bills coming out throughout the week, but will write them down when the come out on the day.

brought some storage boxes for my sons toys for the new house, brouht some cookie cutters and measuring cups. i needed some new socks desperatley so had to get some of them aswell. also brought an aerial for my freeview box.

paid my mum rent aswell today, so big spend day but all on stuff i need or had to pay and it has not been wasted, only £1 to my nieces school as when i went to pick her up they were selling cakes for children in need, so i had to give a little bit.

spent about a tenner today so not too bad. oing to just need ciggies tomorrow i think and hopefully wont spend anything else, unless i get bored and have to go out. but i will try and keep busy to stop myself from spending.

really should give up the ciggies i know but i just cant seem to last longer than 2 weeks.

only spent £3.72 today! i havent really been out today, went to the corner shop and back home, but i have been cleaning and cookin so been a little bit busy and a little bit bored! house didnt stay clean for long because as soon as the boys got home from their dads, they got the toys out.

Really want a new phone but am resisting as much as possible. And it hurts, i keep looking on the websites at phones and it really makes me want a new one, but i have to keep telling myself that there is nothing wrong with the phone i have got, it still works perfectly and as the old saying goes, if it aint broke dont fix it.

Coming up to christmas is always hard because all the adverts are based to draw you in and make it seem like you NEED their products. it works really well but i will resist and treat myself when i have cleared a bit more of the debt and lost some weight which is not going well.

Cant wait to move into my new house, just seems to be dragging its only 13 days but its the slowest time ever. Hopefully i will be settled pretty quick and i can relax a bit more.

well today i have weighed my self, not happy but hopefully i can make it go down if i stop eating the rubbish and start planning my meals more. I want to lose 2 and half stone by my birthday in august which is 35 pounds.
I have joined the lose weight thread for encouragement.

no debt payments today, but wednesday and thursday there will be a couple.

paid ct 1 and 2 £10 each today. tomorrow i will be paying o/p housing ben and maybe a bit off another 1 if i can afford it, but im hoping to get all my toiletries tomorrow for when i move, and hopefully finish or nearly finish all of my xmas shopping.

Cant wait now only 10 days till i move. just to have my own space will be incredible, but will not be on here as much due to not having my own computer. Wil be getting 1 tho if i can save for one.
