That is so cute! I went to the scans of my godson and goddaughter, I always end up bursting into tears and find them really emotional!

Yes, we have a name all picked
Well Mr Postman still hasn't delivered any tax credit related post, but I got my normal weekly CTC payment today, so the one I got 'extra' last week wasn't this week's early - but neither has my normal payment gone down to reflect the 'extra' one being an adjustment payment, so the plot thickens and the mystery continues .......
Nothing to report on the debt front yet as I daren't do anything really exciting until I know what is what re the tax credits.
Done my online Mr T shop which is coming tomorrow. They messed up again last week with my evoucher codes, so I got both a fresh evoucher code and a refund to my payment card on 2 different emails. I've put the evoucher code into this week's checkout anyway, and it was accepted, so if it is allowed when my payment goes through then I've had the benefit twice ... got to be worth a try, right?

Morning diary
Not been on for a few days as I have had nothing money wise to report, and have had the most horrendous few days of pain. Still not feeling great, but at least I've not got much longer left to suffer
I finally had the tax credit awards through and the payments are all correct, so I had a nice bonus lump sum underpayment from last year :j
I have therefore just made one beautifully large payment of £790.45 to Santander:D:D which reduces the balance on that card to a neat £1800.00. I'm going to try and clear that in the next 2 months, then it is gone gone gone gone gone
Gosh that feels good!!!! :beer:

Well done on the payment, it will be brilliant if you can clear that over the next couple of monthsLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

Hello diary
Well, since we last spoke, I've relaxed with the spending a little:o:o
But I think my stress levels and hormones needed it :cool:;) plus none of it went on credit cards
Anyway, I have just paid the last credit card bill for the month and sent it £154.96
Which means I overshot June's £1k debt repayment target :beer:
June's debt repayment total = £1150.01 :j:dance:
I am sooooo pleased!
Also, in other news, I'm having my baby a week early due to complications, so only one more week to waitOlympic Countdown Challenge #145 ~ DFW Nerd #389 ~ Debt Free Date: [STRIKE]December 2015[/STRIKE] September 2015
