I have just been catching up with some diaries - everyone is so inspirational, I must stay on the forum this time - it really kept me going! determined to make things work
getting out an old notepad to jot down ideas from the forum.
though i also remember how addictive the forum is - in a good way i guess!!!!
i will probably keep spending diary on here too so i can see it in black and white and keep myself going.
today total spends - £11.00 diesel (for very little!!:mad:)
need to note all grocerys in cupboards v soon so i can spend less on food and use what i have.
bed time shortly i think feeling sleepy and up for work soon zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
ps must order repeat prescription tomorrow (have pre paid nhs card which works out cheaper)
nite xx0 -
you've just reminded me my OH put his repeat prescription last weekend and still hasn't picked it up
i don't know where fuel is going these days, i'm sure mine must be giving it away to other cars as it seems to go nowhere.0 -

Today - NSD :j
Yesterday - NSD :j
My brother is moving out but I have found a lodger so that is good news as will still be able to cover the mortgage and bills.
Not had any alcohol this week which is good as saved money and also less depressed so that must be good.
chilling out tonight with bit of TV before I start hammering the revision tomorrow:eek:
feeling better today though want to do some money saving stuff like ebay this wkend but really need to prioritise revision. frustrating really.

Well done on two NSD's that's great! can't remember the last time i had one
glad you're feeling a bit better as well in yourself. enjoy your chilling night0 -
Thanks LemonTree:)
I slept in more than I wanted to today :-(
I am just having breakfast - grapefruit from a tin I found in the cupboard! and a pot of tea :-)
hoping for another NSD! though i might need milk. will see.........
The old me from even just a week ago was thinking ooh its saturday night ill treat myself to a takeaway!!!!!!! noooooooooooooo - totally not needed - I have food in I can eat, I should be dieting and what a waste of money!! glad to see I am controlling myself!!!!!:eek::eek: must be strong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also turned out a night out - would be an all day one and would end up eating out plus need to revise. staying focused!
so half an hour to chill with breakfast then shower, quick tidy up then revision will commence!!!!
Have a lovely day everyone xx0 -
you're better than me, we ended up with take away yesterday
i had a nice lie in as well, up at half nine which was lovely but i had set the washing machine to go on overnight and set the dishwasher off before bed so i don't feel guilty. Mr LT is still asleep but that's ok as he was on a 12 hr shift yesterday and can sleep for england, and i can come on here without feeling guilty0 -
Well revision is going okay - feel I have done more than I originally thought, I have downloaded my revision discs onto my ipod too so will keep listening!!!!
definitely not a NSD :eek:- i owed my mum £20 which i forgot so paid up today!! also need milk and cat foos is running v low so getting it whilst it is in offer!
Having a revision break as now really bored! Have started to organise food cupboard to write a list of all food.
house seems empty as my brother has moved out but new housemate will be here soon so will have company. - bit scary though!!!! x0
