Good Morning Everyone.
Well as its a free weekend on eb*y I am going to be busy and list as much as I can. Need to get rid of all this clutter.I will do all the jobs I need to do this weekend soon then will start taking photos and start listing.
Also joined the Make £10 a day August Challenge that should keep me motivated. All Money saved or made will go towards debt.
As I will be moving within the next 18 months, I want this debt down as much as possible before that.
Have decided to use a few £s from ebay funds to buy Hovel in the Hills as the libary dont seem to have it. I have not bought anything for myself in the last few months so this is a treat.
I will be back later.

Good morning,
Hope all the things on eb*y sell.
Fresh bread - yum
Enjoy your day xx0 -
Have put more items on eb*y, just a few left will do them tonight.
Have joined the £10 a day challenge plus the NSD for August.
That should help keep me motivated to get this debt down and not spend.
Have had a look at a few bungalows to try and work out what furniture we need to get rid of, as we have too much to fit into one.
I have had a look at our debts today, as we are also going to need money to help us move.
So I have set myself a target all debt (excluding the loan which will not be paid until Dec 2015) will be paid by June 2012 or before.
Then we will save as much as we can to help us move.
We have agreed today that we will not spend any money on anything unless its necessary. Oh has even decided to stop buying the paper said he can read it on-line anyway.
So tomorrow 1st August is the start of our new plan.:j
I feel alot more postive now that I have a plan, and can see the end of the tunnel. Its the first time I have felted so good in along time.
So over the next few months between Doctors and Hospital appointments. I plan to sell everything we dont need or want. What I cant sell will go to CS or freecycle.DEALING WITH MY DEBTS ONE AT A TIME

Really glad you're feeling better. I always feel better if I have a plan to deal with things. Otherwise it just whizzes round in my head and makes me unhappy.
So, here's to tomorrow and your new plan :T0 -
Same here Hovel Lady,
I also need to see it down on paper.
My dad was the same bless him.
Always making plans and lists in his notebooks.DEALING WITH MY DEBTS ONE AT A TIME

Its cloudy and dull here at the moment.
Well it should be a NSD for me as a friend is coming to visit this afternoon. So I dont need to go any where.
Sold a few things over the weekend so will transfer money to bank, then that will come off Vanquis CC.
Also have a few things bid on, so more money to come off the debt.
Have a lovely day everyone.

Afternoon everyone,
Well friend has been and gone.
Good news her daughter is moving into her own flat in about six months.
So she is coming over at the weekend, to go through what I am selling.
If she wants any of it then I will hold it for her till she moves.DEALING WITH MY DEBTS ONE AT A TIME
