    Fab idea about the wedding dress xxxxx :-)

    It's achy which I can cope with thank goodness the spasming has stopped xx

    College paid me so I've transferred it straightaway to the mortgage fund nearly at the £5500 mark but we will go past that once we pay in what we owe

    So far I owe it £40 from the sales I made on Fb, hubby owes £35 that's he borrowed from the sales I made on Fb and whatever commission I make from avon hoping over £30 so another £100 towards the pot :T I'm quite happy with that xx

    Afternoon :hello:

    Well hubby has been paid :j thank god it feels like forever

    Paid to the mortgage account what I owed so £75 is now transferred to that

    Hubby paid back what he borrowed from the savings so just chucked the £110 towards the barclaycard aiming to had this card under £400 by the end of the month, bit ambitious but we shall sees

    I've also decided I want to try and hit the £6k mark by the end of February so that's it my targets are set

    £6000 by end of February
    Under £500 for the barclaycard by the end of January
    Barclaycard cleared and closed by end of February

    That'll keep me focuses for a while zx

    Afternoon :hello:

    Been a quiet morning due to the rubbish weather here decided not to go to toddlers as it was far too windy and chucking it down xx

    Was working from 8am til 1pm so we took a walk to the local shops and I spent £6.98 on 2 bottles of juice, 2 trashy magazines, two packs of sweeties for kk and my mindee and a can of deodorant for hubby

    Hubby was meant to be leaving tonight for his course but his stupid work decided he was leaving at 1pm today :mad: so the plans we had made for the afternoon were of no use :mad: so he's away now worst see him til the early hours of Friday morning :( missing him already xx

    Sent £14.91 towards the credit card seeing as I never hit the shops with the boys on the way to toddlers

    Received my refund from h Samuel for my third dodgy bracelet so hubby insists I spend the money on myself ..............I don't actually need anything xx

    Working again from 3pm til 4pm so hopefully I'll just have a chill out session with the kids then once they are in bed then I'll tackle my self assessment ........might as well keep busy whilst hubby is away xx

    Evening :hello:

    I'm shattered :( knees are aching can really feel I have arthritis on days like this (had it since I was 15) so in bed chilling out seeing has hubby is away on a course til Friday

    Took kids to our singing and dancing club which was FREE :T had lunch then did the nursery runs :cool: then walked into town whilst kk had a nap

    Bought Abbie's juice for school £2.50 for six bottles and printer paper £3 and handed my bracelet in to be repaired which will cost me £8 when I collect it on Saturday

    Paid my avon invoice and sent back a car part hubby bought on eBay do should have £59 being refunded to my credit card.

    Car is stinging us but I know hubby will fix it, credit card debt has went up but I'm continuing to tackle the barclaycard then I can concentrate on the Halifax one

    Did my monthly food shop tonight with Abbie spent £107 in farmfoods £73 in b&m and £13 in Sainsburys so £193 on everything freezer is struggling to close, cupboards are groaning and fridge is bursting at the seams which I don't think is bad for a family of 5 for 4 weeks...........just need to top up on milk bread and fruit when I need to xx

    Right off to sleep as eyes are nipping xx
