Ooh, ooh, eurobet? GTD, shall we go for that? (KC rushes off to get a cup of tea and investigate further)....

GettingThingsDone

Been another busy week - so no chance to get on with the matched betting.

- Lost 1lb this week, which is ok considering it was a bit disorganised food-wise.
- Got £5 from my co-op points; Charged £10 for mini-bar items which I never used!! Grrr
- Fallen off my snowball bandwagon, but I have put some (not much though) money aside to help when I recalculate.
- I didn't know we had a BT phone bill outstanding, so now I've got to find some money for that. I need to do my expenses - I'm sure there's some money owed there.
- I need to get some ink cartridges off to hypno

Time to properly get back onto the GTD/DFW pony! C'mon!

Argh - car went kaput yesterday. Fixed now, but it's going to cost over £600... Grrrrr. Oh well, bedtime now.

Hi GTD, sorry to read about the car.

Are you back on the snowball wagon yet? How's things generally this week?

Hi GTD

Those unexpected bills are horrible, aren't they! That awful dental work I've had to have done has cost me £170, and thats the problem, the unexpected ones are for the bad stuff! Never mind, we'll make it back from m.b.ing when we get our act together. Hope your day is good - I'm offline between 10 and 11, and otherwise will be hopping on and off here - I have to go into town either today or Saturday, but will do that according to whether we do the practice today or Saturday.

Hope your day is good!

Hi GTD, aw shucks to the car hon, however trying to cast a panias positive glow lets look at it this way, pre LBM, before you started sortin gthings out, how would you have paid to get the car repaired? I bet, like me when i had my MOT and tax last month you would've been gutted, down and VERY upset! Be proud of yourself that you are now able to shrug it off with an "ah well nevermind and that you know that you can pay for it. That is a massive step forward even tho it seems like carp now.
Big hugs hon, and welldone on the continued weightloss!!! xxx

Thanks everybody - really helps at times like these!

I think I would have just left the car at the garage when I was pre-DFW The £600 is on my work charge card, so I can pay it in January and that gives me some thinking/shuffling/mb-ing time.

The good news is that with some shuffling and using the saved up snowballs, I've managed to clear the Mint card. All my debt is on interest free (apart from the £600) - wahoo!

Also, just figured that 'day 100' of my diet will be on Christmas day - ahhhh...

Good night y'all
