Oooooh what's the app...I bought an ipod touch to try and keep me organised a couple of weeks ago;) But all I've done is add my music and it's sat in me bedroom...oops:o

Oooh sounds like the perfect excuse to buy an ipod touch! :rotfl: At the min I'm going old school and got myself a little notebook that lives in my handbag.

Main lists just now are

• Christmas pressies still to buy
• Books to read
• DIY to do
• Places to visit
• And my Day Zero list - 101 things to do in 1001 days

Phew!

Hi La escocesa
Just wanted to say good luck with clearing your CC - I'm on that mission too at the minute hopefully next week for me, as I am wiping everything to pay it off as its doing my head in!!

Oh and I have subscribed to your diary to see how you are progressing

I bought an account app for my iPhone - Its the account tracker and its been a god send, You can add all your bank, savings and Credit Card accounts to it and track what you spend. I use it as a spending diary and its been the best £1.79 I have spent on any app on my phone

Hi Folks

Ipod touch app is called Errands. You can put in anything u like!! create lots of lists n tick em off when completed. I brought my ipod in June with me bday money n now can,t manage with out it Sad or wot but keeps me happy n motivated! I'm abit like a kid with a star reward board haha. I also ave a shoppin app. The hubby n kids crack up when i'm wanderin round lidl tickin me bargains off b4 i finish off in tesco!!

These credit cards take some payin off! mine as recently taken a bashin thanks to my dog. He is insured so hopin to get a nice fat cheq back soon so that will help get it back down ????

Hope you get your money back soon fingersxed. For things like that I just can't imagine not having a credit card, as much as I'm looking forward to paying it off. Is it bad that I can't imagine life without a credit card for emergencies???

Just paid £524.32 off my credit card :T (very specific but every penny counts ) Looking forward to the payment clearing and interest being added so I can see where I am. Can't be bothered figuring that out. Too tired today

Need to keep an eye on the cheque clearing and put that towards the cc as soon as.

Think I'm almost there pressies wise now too and so happy that I haven't used a credit card once. :j OH still has to get his dad's pressie but shall leave that to him. Also found my stash of wrapping paper so don't need to buy more Quite happy about that, not just money-saving wise but just because I can't be bothered standing in a queue in town on my lunch break tomorrow.

OH is out tonight - wondering if he's going to bring a take away in... - Had grand plans of slow cooking some stuff tonight but those plans didn't take off. Just been snacking on carrot batons and humous

Been pottering around all night but still don't feel like I'm getting anywhere with the flat. Everything is everywhere and I feel like I'm just moving piles of stuff from one place to the other. Cannot wait to sell this place and move out!! Let's get this cc paid off so the saving can commence!

Am meant to have a half day off work tomorrow - we were going to go to the cinema with Mr T's vouchers - but feel like I might just come home and clean this place to try to feel a bit more organised. What a saddo

Really need to get an early night tonight. My eyes are stinging with lack of sleep.
