A Budgeteers Quest to be Debt Free & Mortgage Free By 40

DedicatedDFW

Wow! So i've just about done most of my list - notably its the money and listings that i'm behind on - and of course the one helps the other :cool: So tomorrow will see me listing more things - how many more i'm not sure yet - think i may have 7 things sorted out to list at the moment - so alot more to find then :eek: I quite liked updating what i was keeping and what was going but when the comp broke i just couldn't be bothered making a note of it and adding to the stuff everywhere

Ok, i'll try those shoes on and rummage out the ones that weren't in the wardrobe

Oh i nearly forgot to mention - tried the underwear on with the intention that i could return it for a refund if it wasn't a good fit and then make a pad - well its fab so thats been put away. 2nd lot of washing is on - which reminds me i;ve still the stuff from the first lot to move :eek:

And - when i was buying my cake i nearly spent £10 on 4 meals - not full meals but just a part of it. I had them in my basket and i was thinking 'well i'll take £10 out of next weeks budget and it'll be nice having something ready done (although i'd need to do the potatoes & veg to go with them) then i thought what am i doing ? i've pretty much got all the ingredients to make it myself - ok not something i can just throw into the oven but as i've got the ingredients its not too hard work to make and a fraction of the cost - so these got put back *Phew!*

Shucks! I've not done alot actually - it just sounds like i have Anyways popping on to report shoes are now all tidy and all sorted Have a few to list tomorrow so thats good - although i counted a couple in my earlier round up of 7 items to list so i've still plenty to find :eek: - And besides i've not nearly done as much as you have hon x

Went through my bags - kinda Then realised i'm too tired to properly do this today so will have a proper sort out tomorrow :cool:

And may well add onto my list after getting these things done: hats, scarves, gloves, belts, jewellery and hair accessories all spring to mind as the remaining fashion items i can focus on I could probably clear out my underwear drawer but that'll only generate stuff to throw out that will need replacing so it can wait :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


Once again i'm itching to make another payment - but i need to await the money coming in to allow me to do that - and i've no sales ending until next week i think Gah!

So tomorrow i have:- 2 dresses to try on - and list if they do not fit

1 cardi to list

several pairs of shoes to list

1 bag to list

sunglasses to tidy away (in accessories storage)

bags to sort out

and then the rest of the stuff i've put if i have the time / energy
oh and 3 other things to sort out if i don't get them done tonight

You could always sell your well worn undies on ebay, there's a whole different market out there

Today is shaping up to be a very slow plodding along type day

Although i have added to my list as i had made quite alot of progress and really only had the 2 most important targets to reach - paying off £1550 and listing 150 new items on the bay of e which will hopefully help with the money target if things sell!

Whilst trying a few bits on i've done another load of washing and loaded the dryer.

I've hand washed a couple of items - still a couple to do but i can never face doing many at once

I've made a call

Sent a few messages

Pondered about tea tomorrow and must remember to lift the stuff out of the land of the freezer.

Washed pots.

Sorted out some rubbish

Made a little PAD (i couldn't help myself )

Moved sun specs and checked hair accessories but am keeping them all

Lifted all bags out ready to be sorted

Plod, plod, plod
