  • Sorry ive been mia, well done on the payments. A craft stall sounds good if you have the time and it can help towards paying things off :)

    Aww I hope you're not coming down with anything hun - tbh I feel the same, but with a dry throat too. Eased off now but during night wasn't nice.

    I thought Spring was on it's way - illnesses should have been killed off by the winter by now!

    Well done on the payment hun

    Day off sick in the end on Friday but loads better now.

    Been spending out a bit on stuff for this craft fair so going to have to go easy on the payments till I get my next lot of pub wages. Should be fine, just don't want to end up messing up by paying too much.

    Have got a £20 Amazon voucher on the way from M*Cains which is good as I can pick up some more supplies from there. One eBay sale at the weekend too - but only for 99p, oh well :)

    £6 to the CC :)

    Oh, and the 100 days challenge finished on Saturday and I managed £4,800 out of the £5,000 I was aiming for. Pleased with that as £5,000 would have been an average of £50 a day so am very pleased to have got close to that with £48 a day :D

    Thanks HWG :A

    Still sticking with the small payments so £13 to the CC today, taking me to 74% paid off :)

    It's OH's birthday tomorrow - I couldn't afford a great present so have bought him a load of chocolate but have wrapped it to look like a cheeseburger (which he loves) - sounds weird but I think it came out quite well. Never again though do I want to glue sesame seeds to paper, too fiddly! :D

    Have managed mother's day quite cheaply too (sorry Mum cause that sounds awful!) She wanted a new peg bag so I got her a pretty Cath Kidston one. I've then painted some clothes pegs in bright colours and put white polka dots on them and then stuck magnets to the back so she can use them for clipping notes to the fridge. Again, really fiddly but was pleased as plain pegs are cheap and paint pot samples at 3 for £1 can't be argued with :D
