    £30 paid to Lloyds, looks like it will be Saturday before i can get to the bank with pennies.
    Another hours OT tonight but have been told it will all be paid in April pay but its fine as long as it gets paid. Its ok as its 1/4 bonus month so an extra £150 before tax this month and a little next.
    One week until payday and I think it will be tight if i want to keep the bit of OD paid off but its looking a bit brighter than it was last month. I felt I had lost my way since xmas but getting through the next milestone will be fantastic.
    Off to BT £450 to my new cc no transfers fees :j
    Quidco is showing £2.93 payment to come at the end of the month hopefully that will icrease a bit.

    DS is home tonight and i have missed him but i wont let on ;)

    :j:j Refund cheque has arrived and I have bagged the pennies to go to the bank £55 tomorrow.
    Plan is £55 will be paid off Lloyds Monday and it will be Friday before cheques is cleared and the bigger payment will go through.
    Looks like next Friday will be party day when we go under the big 30K

    Another hour OT done today must make sure I add it to my spreadsheet.
    Quidco has also cleared another £50 today so month end payment is now £52.93

    I managed to get everything paid in the bank now all I have to do it wait for it to show online and clear.
    DH mint statement has not appeared again this month its been like this for a long time our postman is rubbish and we often get others post this means i have to guess the payment so I have decided when he gets up today i will get him to register online so I can control it that way.This will also allow me to keep track of his random spends.
    I have to go out and do a small food shop today and maybe pick up a tin of paint so I can start to brighten up the rooms, we have lived here for over 5 years and we gave it a quick lick of paint when we moved in so i think its ready. I plan to do one room at a time nothing major and all cheapish but it will also mean a final declutter.

    Well done HWG on the extra payments, you are on fire!

    looking forward to your post when it shows under £30k. What a brilliant achievement. You must be really excited at the prospect. I am am a bit behind you but will get there. Just seems one step forward 6 back at the moment. But rather than burying my head in the sand as I would have done before, and just given up. Am now able to tackle head on and keep moving in the right direction. Despite any setbacks.

    Just about to move over my round downs from my account, forgot to do it on Friday! Doh.

    Have a lovely day Dolly x ;)

    I am so excited this week will be another huge milestone.
    Its been quite a lazy weekend but i did manage to do 4 black sacks of shredding, and get DH mint card set up online ;). I now have total control which lead me to ask what a certain transaction was been coming out for a few months and not got to the bottom of it, turns out its a work thing and needs to be claimed back over £500 :eek: why oh why !!!!

  • OMG:eek: HWG, that's madness! Typical man!! But hopefully he will be able to claim it all back and that will be a massive payment off the debt(if that's where it goes)
