Checked online banking
Paid Council Tax
Found £50 in online savings so paid off small debt as found on my credit expert report
Spoke with lovely people at credit expert about debt, and under their advice made an amendment to missed payments from 2 years ago (and outstanding debt still) regarding brothers redundancy
Rearranged my standing order for savings to come out when I actually have money in account (Savings arent savings but for money to be paid in the middle of month i.e. phone bill)
Spoke to Virgin retentions and saved £25 on my monthly package
Moved clothes to home made washing line inside (it actually looks nice enough to hang it outside?!)

Feeling good!

Amazing, Karb!! Congrats!

Thanks both. Yes its a real relief. Its also made me doubly determined to sort out my debts, because I don't want to get a redundancy payment that is just completely swallowed up by credit card bills.

Hello :j

Congrats on your exciting new job Nottoobadyet, and Karb - great news from you as well

Today:
Not much done, as I was up mega-early and off to London for a work meeting , but managed to get back just after 6.30 this evening.

HM breakfast - porridge and fruit

Checked online banking and moved some money around as I got paid yesterday :j

2 eggs from chooks today :j

Free papers on trains to break up monotonous journeys there and back.

Free lunch and coffee at meeting

Bolognese sauce I made on Sunday for supper, with fresh cooked pasta

Washing outside on line to dry (and it did!)

New ebay item has 14 watchers and a bid! It is a stainless steel bowl from my Kenwood Chef - I use a plastic one from an old machine 'cos I can't stand the feel of the metal one :eek: Weird I know, but I just can't touch the inside of it without shuddering. And as for scraping it with a spoon, yeurgh! :eek::eek: So, I thought I might as well sell it and never have to touch it again (I will get OH to wrap it ).

That probably sounds a bit strange

With that, off for a bath and an early night I think! :rotfl:

Totally totally understand you Dawn on the kenwood bowl! Thankfully i have plastic one too but my nan uses a metal one AND scrapes it with a metal spoon!!! *shudders*
