Abba1772's Debt Free Diary

I did take the night off hubby put his foot down as migraine wasn't for shifting last night but managed to get another order delivered last night.
So I've sent my avon money acroos to the barclaycard so £226.88 is winging it's way towards the card as we speak and tomorrow this card will be gone gone gone...........what a relief. Can't wait for it to be offically cleared.
start work at 9.15am hoping the rain eases off at lunchtime as me and my new wee mindee got soaked yesterday.
Today's plans are I need to go to the post office and pay in money from the avon, it's all changed so bagged up and ready to go and also need to pick up a parcel from the post office think it's kk's game he asked for xmas, either way it's a xmas pressie out the way.
Also need to remember and take a avon order to school with me this morning as they have paid direct to my bank and I need to take another avon order with me on the way to the post office and drop it off, then i only have 4 more order to get rid of and the commission is all money woo hoo although it will be more likely going towards Xmas presents I've ordered
I will be getting the painting done today as I finish work at 2.45pm today and get KK from school at 3.15pm so once I've collected the him it's straight back to the house and get on with the painting, hubby has a homer tonight so won't be back til late so just me and my boys tonight so hopefully I can get this bathroom done in one night. This means hubby can get everything back up on the walls and I can get my bathroom back to normal.
right off to get KK out his bed xxNEXT 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 £15026.053 -

It's official hubby's Barclaycard has been cleared.....doing a wee chair boogie as we speak lol xx
Feels good now I can concentrate on getting Christmas more organised. I have my MIL, FIL and my gran all organised, have various pressies for my mindees just struggling what to get one of them but I'll figure it out plus need 7 selection boxes for them plus the big gifts for my own kids and hubby wants an exhaust for his bike so will put the money by for that.
Managed to get the bathroom all painted it's lovely now for hubby to do his thing and get the stuff back on the wall. Also did a online workout as well with my gym feeling it in the arms this morning tho.
Start work at 9.15am and finish at 4pm. I need to head to the post office and pick up my parcel as it's a gift for my mindee and I'll put the Avon money I collected last night into the bank as the mortgage and life insurance is due out on Monday. Will grab my gran her paper and check in on her.
After I've dropped mindee off I need to nip to poundland for brillo pads to scrub my bathroom tiles and they are covered in tiny bits of paint, will do this after I've finished work and completed my gym workout.
Have a committee meeting tonight at 8.30pm hope it's not a long one but its necessary as we have a gym in the community centre (this isn't the one I use) and they are refusing to close, using the loophole that they are training athletes for the Olympics, but I've picked that legislation apart and they aren't getting away with it. The gym members are also being irresponsible by leaving chalk they use for the weighlifting all over the centre which is crazy as that stuff absorbs liquid which is what this virus is made of......madness.

Woo hoo the card is gone 🎉🎉🎈 Well done 👏 Love how you get on to your next project straightaway.
Hope the meeting goes well, sounds like a tough one. A Christian café not far from where I live refused to close, still had lots of customers going in, no social distancing they were quoting some ancient rights etc. They eventually closed them down and fined them thousands.
