Abba1772's Debt Free Diary

morning

Productive morning so far got  my cross trainer session done before I started work at 7pm wee one fell asleep so I organised all my Avon orders which aren't due to go out until next Friday few bits missing but have placed another order and hopefully they'll be here before my orders go out next Friday.

Paid off hubby's credit card as it was a condition of the mortgage so bye bye £1228 but at least its gone now, the only debt we actually have now is the car which is due to run out in December but I need to save up to pay the balloon payment and hubby's motorbike.  And our mortgage.

Have done my committee duties today and sent out a couple of emails, the community centre is due to reopen hopefully soon, me personally will be not starting my group back until after the summer holidays as I want to keep an eye on the numbers before I commit to reopening the toddler group. Better safe than sorry.

Got a washing on baskets are still empty go me need to get an ironing done today at some point as well.

also need to print out some paperwork and file it away.

Abbie's boyfriend found love letters from my grandpa to my gran from 1958 hidden in the garage of all places.......he was such a gentleman bless him.  was lovely to read a couple of them they were together for 47 years married for 43 years

Well done on having the savings to clear hubs card, at least you know its done and dusted. 

Yep go you with the washing always good to empty the basket 

Agree with you about the group better safe than sorry - plus you already have loads on. 

Excited for you now having booked the work in - love it when a plan all comes together. I do find with savings there is always something to spend it on lol but think of the alternative that that would just be debt again. 

Immensely proud of you with your savings, hope you are too! 

Sounds a nice lad Abbies BF. Really cute find about the letters, warms the cockles of the heart and all that

Those letters must have been lovely to read. Are you going to take them to your gran or would that cause too much upset for her? x

Morning

Was super busy yesterday Fitbit registered 35000 steps I'm quite tired today.

Have started painting my fence, only taking it in sections but it still takes two hours as I've got to give it two coats but it's so worth it.

Yesterday the rendering company came and took pictures and I've sent a 20% deposit over to them so It's getting done at the start of July, I've to phone them at the start of June and get an actual date locked in as he's waiting on the other 2 houses in my street to get back to him as we are getting them done roughly at the same time but that's it booked, think I might just take 2 weeks at the start of July and book the electrician in and the plasterer as well and just get i done and hopefully get to spend some time with my kids during that time off.

Need to nip to the post office sorting office as postage hasn't been paid properly on the letter or parcel also need to nip to shops and get a thin paint brush and a photo album for my grans letters so that's the plan after I've dropped the wee one off to nursery.

Off to get ready for the school run

Wow about the fence - are you doing the karate kid method of painting 

Hope your week is good.
