Monday morning update am back to work and taking a break to do finances as per usual.
Scores from the doors are so far, still one bid on ebay. One was paid for and thats to package tonight. I am going to be doing paper logs like a possessed demon.
Another 2.76 to the money earned this year from stuff pile. Debt free date has shrunk back by another month. I am now into 2016, just! I am also back into the 25s which is a real psychological plus for me.
My next Paid in full will be vanquis! The interest is appalling and if I really put every spare penny to it I can I have a good feeling we can shift it. I do minimums on everything else and then I pummell the vanquis. Thats the plan!
Child benefit came in today but its got to prop me up for the mortgage payment which is larger by 70 pounds this month with it being the first one.
Im still waiting for my Gl0baltestmarket cheque. I am rather keen for it to arrive.
Tonight I shall also survey and start planning decorating of the upstairs loo!
ALSO, I got some flea treatment for the furry gang. My performing cat troupe wear flea collars but I like to ensure no infestations. I have enough pets. So that was ordered via quidco and some nice cashback which will be added to the totaliser when its paid. The old ladies (dogs) have plenty in stock.
ONwards and upwards, will do some work now.Trying to shift that debt!0 -

Twice, today, Ive written posts it wouldnt let me post.
Upshot, not paying anything til my mortgage payment goes. Also feeling depressed about my weight a bit. I am a bifter.
Also feeling rather flat and have been in tears. Never mind its bound to happen on a diet of mostly mince and spaghetti.
Will post more tomorrow.Trying to shift that debt!0 -

Thanks Lou.
Forgot to mention yesterday night got a lacoste freebie, some coupons off the coop bank and an ikea coupon.
Ive done loads of surveys tonight and managed to instal Gl0baltestmarket on my phone so I can do them in bed as well.
Tonights post wasnt quite so exciting but nothing of note, just waiting of the council tax bills....
Im giving up wine Sunday to Thursday and I will agressively do housework. To music.
Also cutting down caffiene and drinking more water.
Le sigh. I like wine, chocolate coffee and sedentary housework!Trying to shift that debt!0
