Thanks everyone she’s doing ok still being her independent self, she’s got this
I’ve sold the Nintendo DS bundle for £150 but oh my what an amount of timewasters there are online it’s a joke so £75 will being winging its way to my re-render fund and the other half will be put in abbies house fund for her. It’s not in my total yet as I need to go to the post office and put it in the bank and then I’ll divide it up and up date my total. Was so close to hitting £600 without the sale money but all my accounts are rounded down nicely lol.
also need to return a pair of leggings that were too tight.
todays plan is to get the ironing done when the wee mindee takes a nap later on and once they’ve left I’ll get in with my first workout of the week
Have reset my old iPad and put it on gumtree and fb.......let the timewasters begin lol again anything I get for it will be put straight into my savings
also think I might have sold a jacket I no longer use for £5 they are apparently paying me tomorrow, we shall see.
need to sort through kks clothes and see what is too wee for him and get them gone as well. Every penny helps xx
need to get a hold of the finanical advisor and see if we can organise a zoom meeting so he can get the ball rolling on the remortgage front for us at the end of the month.
hubby started a new job today bit risky with the world is right now but same money less stress and he’s working with one of his best friends and the guy has promised to put him through his MOT training once it is safe to do so. Fingers crossed he keeps his word

Have got my annual statement in for my car pcp agreement my balance is sitting at £7874.80 right now so I’m pleased with that.By dec 21 I’ll have £4960 balloon payment to clear so from August I’ll be saving like crazy to get this saved up so that I can clear the balance as I want to declare at the end of the year I am officially debt free when this is cleared and I’ll save a whooping £242 a month.
just wanted to put this on here as I write everything on scrap bits of paper and then Chuck them so I can look back and see what is expected of me at the end of the yearNEXT 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 £15026.055
