My diary - getting rid of my debt deamons!

Kei

Busy day at work again! At least its the weekend now, phew!

Was going to visit the gym but decided to go tomorrow now as am a bit tired.

Had a quick wizz round the spare room and picked up a box full of things for the car boot. Don't think there is anything worth putting on ebay, as it will only sell for pennies on there, plus paying the fees and the paypall fees, then trekking to the post office, just not worth it. Will go through wardrobe tomorrow and see if there is anything worth ebaying there.

Got my to-do list ready for the weekend, involves cooking, cleaning and changing my brake light! Nothing fun planned this weekend so just chilling and saving again. Will go to the gym and catch up with some friends for a natter.

Will also see if I can get the money owed off my bro to go towards the CC, and see if my sis has anything to offer also!

Well, not too happy today as the goal posts for getting rid of my CC have now been well and truely moved. Checked tyres and they were low on tread, so thought better take it to get new ones rather than 3 points and £60 for each tyre if I get pulled.

Got to the garage, 2 new front tyres please (run flats). The guy says which ones would you like? I say, how much are the cheapest ones? He says, £144 per tyre! Also tracking was out, so paid for that to be re-alligned, so spent a grand total of £313.20!!! :eek: Had to put it on the CC as I don't have the money set aside, only about £100 in my spends account.

That means that there is no way I will be able to get rid of the CC now by April. but should be able to do it by May. I am annoyed, but then it is better to be road safe and also I have a brake light out that I need to get changed this weekend, so I could have been pulled for that.

Oh thats pants but, you're right, better safe than sorry.

Really sorry to hear that you've had a setback in your charge towards the 2k mark. Better to delay DFD and be safe though! Don't lose heart, get off to the gym and work off all that frustration!

Well however annoying my set back is, this week I have to just live with it and get on with it! Pay day next Friday, so that will make me happy!

Yesterday was very productive; did the shopping, went to the gym, made HM pizza (in the breadmaker - read in someone elses diary that this is really yummy!) and flapjacks (although I forgot one for lunch today ). Went to see my mum and she gave me a bag full of loads of potatoes and 2 brand new baking trays! Also my sister gave me a webcam she does not need anymore, and I brought back a few bits and bobs I had left when I moved out.

Really looking forward to my week off next week, although I need to get my car serviced (should be free as I have a service pack) and take cats to the vets (worming and check-up) so could end up being costly, hopefully not too much!

Heres to a good week. I want to try making homemade pizza, just havent got round to it yet.
Hope the vets bills arent too shocking

Just updated the sig and am back to over the 4k mark But will keep chipping away and should be back down soon.

All tucked up in bed now ready for an early night! Been to the gym, then chili from the freezer for dinner. Busy again at work and next 2 days are going to be hell with only 2 of us in, but then, my long awaited week and 2 days off work!

Just spilt my 'lips, lids and lashes' clinique freebie all over my dressing table - idiot. Oh well could be worse it could have been a full size bottle!

Put an application for funding for a masters in at work last week but still haven't heard anything about that, probably wont hear until after my hols now. Also put application into the university to make sure they will accept me on the course, and if work won't pay I will probably fund it.

Decided that its kittens big day out this weekend, finally getting a catflap and will fit it on saturday! Weather is so nice so will be opening windows soon so they will escape anyway! Should have done it sooner but felt cruel to kick them out for the first time in winter when it was below 0 degrees!

Good luck with the masters. I'm currently funded for a 3rd of a masters (PGCert) with the option to continue if I want. It's hard going when working etc but enjoyable in the main... I think!

Thanks Keggie, I know it will be hard work, not sure if I am looking forward to it! Looking forward to the end of it though when I get the qualification!
