OMG!! where do you get all of your energy from....???
I am shattered just reading your diary....your poor ankles and feets must be sore....
Great news on the avon orders though...I used to do it a long, long time ago and made enough to buy little extra's for my first home
Brilliant that you managed to pay for the trampoline out of your ebay sales too :T ....love being able to do things like that as it feels great that you have achieved something for nothing in effect....especially if like me I tend to take everything to the charity shop....note to self need to ebay more !!Total debt £[STRIKE]37864.78 [/STRIKECOLOR=purple][FONT=Arial Narrow][SIZE=1 [/STRIKE][STRIKE] £31681.03[/STRIKE] -[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]£16700

I have no idea where I get my energy from tbh........I'm not as sore as i thot i was lol
well picked my rug and and i really like it altho it takes a while to get used to something new in the house I guess lol keep walking in the living room and going huh?????? lol it's so soft hehehehe
went to tesco and got juice and milk so spent £2.83 there
Love looking at my signature now as my Cap One Balance is now lower than the BOS CC :j :j :j :j I reckon October this will be gone
Got a letter through from the BOS Card saying they are reducing my CC limit by £200 which is fine by me as i don't use it and i'm paying of the minimum til the Cap One Card is away then that will be getting blitzed but got the credit card statment through and the interest is about £34 so by adding that on there taking me just up to the limit and no more.......are the hoping my DD will fail and they'll have to charge me for it lol i don't think so lol
I reckon another 4 months and the Cap One Card will be gone gone gone:):):D:D:D:):):):) can't wait lol
I have 3 houses to go to today to collect there orders as they asked me to come back tonight when collecting the books, also have to deliver two books to a couple of customers I forgot aboutbut they are just up the road from me lol and try try try and get this woman in who is still to pay for her order.......there is always one lol oh and DD's friend's mum drop off another order over £15 :j

YEY! I bet it feels good to get rid of the contract phone! I got rid of mine a few years ago now, best thing I ever did! -Esp considering as I rarely use my mobile anyway!
Well done on your Avon orders too, hopefully a nice cut for you there!
I can't believe you are going to hit your target for the year before 6 months is even up! You must be so proud of yourself!
Have you got your trampoline yet? My god ours was a nightmare to put up, i'd get someone round who is nice a strong lol! Kids love it though

I can't believe i'll be hitting my target either its amazing how much i've been paying out in bills without realising it so it's defo a eye opener but i'm defo chuffed with myself.
I haven't got the trampoline yet as i was waiting on my wee bro to help me with it but the way the weather has been lately......rubbish lol will defo have it by next week tho x
and i'm defo glad the vodaphone is gone as i haven't used the dongle in well over a year so was paying £30 for nothing!!!!!! so another £30 will be going towards my debts....feels good lolNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
I am impressed as to how well you are doing...
Just a couple of queries are you managing to pay the contractual monthly payments on your debts or are you making reduced payments to them and paying any extra that you can?
Its just that I have 3 debts which are under £2k, one is an employer loan which is paid each month and my expenses instead of getting them paid directly back to me I ask that it goes off my loan so that is coming down quite nicely. The other two I pay £5 per month to, although I am hoping to make payments of above this....but do you just concentrate on one and pay as much as you can off this or spread it out?
Hope this makes sense....

I'm making my contractural payments on all of them Burntfingers, I pay minimum on the BOS CC, My couch installment is fixed at £55 per month until January 2014 :mad: But hoping to clear this before then, I pay all my bills on time and any extra money I have gets shoved into the Cap One Card as they wanted to increase interest but instead i've closed the account down and paying the remainder, plus i didn't want the £6k hanging over me and the kids future.
I'm at the moment concentrating on the CAP One Card and when that is paid off it'll be the BOS CC then after that the couch so it's a plan so far lol
I worked really hard at making my credit rating good and didn't want to spoil it by going bankrupt after spliting up with EX so kinda just cut back on everything and knuckled down.........just seeing a difference in the statements makes my day and it makes it so worthwhile when i hear my EX is considering bankrupting himself (altho i'm sure he ain't allowed to whilst he's still in the RAF) as he can't cope with his financial obligations even tho we walked away with roughly the same amount.NEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050
