Day started quite brightly here - but now it is raining!
I have decided to log 'key dates' in my repayments to OH, so here they are.....
11/03/2011 total repaid £1,000
20/05/2011 £2,000
29/07/2011 £3,000
07/10/2011 £4,000
16/12/2011 £5,000
Seems like an awful lot of money written down like that - and it is! There is simply no denying it!
At least it has broken this year into 5 chunks, lol..... only 8 weeks more and I'll be at the 20/05/2011 milestone! Sounds ok if you say it quick enough! lol
Laters! x
Look what tomorrow is!!!!! :Tstart = Wed 19th Nov 2008 £21,225

Good afternoon All!
This is my 2nd attempt at a post today - the first magically vanishing some time this morning. Gutting really as it was all pretty with loads of smilies and sparkles... now suffering from a dose of CBA so this one will read (more or less) the same, but without all the fancy bits!
So, it's Friday and apart from the good news that the weekend is only a few hours away for most of you, it also means that I have now repaid my lovely OH £2,000. YAY!!! That equates to almost 12%!!! Looking back over the 20 weeks it has taken me to get to this point, it doesn't feel like it has been too stressful - ok, I am leaving myself a little tight by repaying him at £100 a week, but it needs to be done at that rate just to get it gone! Next date to aim for 29th July!! Then it will be £3,000 repaid!
Sooo, what else is there to report? Hmmm, lets see (in no particular order).....- Working tomorrow and then helping DSS's cousin with some revision for her Science GCSE exams.
- Need to phone my bestest friend in America tomorrow early evening - that will take up about an hour! lol
- Sunday..... need to start organising stuff to bootfair, which will also help in de-cluttering the house. Also means the 2 sheds need sorting as we are going to need somewhere to store the sorted items until we can bootfair. OH has volunteered to go helo a friend with his computer on Sunday, and whilst we are in that direction we are going to pop in and see my parents. Need to squeeze dinner and poker in too!
- My seeds are growing in the garden - last weekend I had a bit of a 'Barbara' moment and dug over the veg patch and planted carrots, radishes, potatoes and onions (a little late, but better late than never!). Hopefully we should leave my parents with some tomatoes and runners from my mum too! I wanna grow leeks too, so need to get them organised.
- Still waiting to hear from the garage about who's fault it is that the DD had the wrong account numbers on it!
Oh, off to France for a couple of nights next week. Only Thursday and Fri nights, back on Sat - but that should be a nice little break and of course it has been done as economically as possible! And will have Sunday and Monday to recover.
Right, I think that is pretty much it for now. Hope you are all well and wish you a lovely sunny weekend!

sounds like you won't have much breathing time over the weekend. Congratulations on reaching the £2k mark, it's lovely to see it coming down isn't it, when you think about what you tried to do previously which just ended up with the figures remaining the same, this time the numbers are a changing.0

Ooh, had a quick peek at the garden this morning - more radishes are showing their little green heads and 1 onion is starting to show!
Getting there..... slowly!
