Well done on clearing the clutter. I seriously need to do this, i have clothes all over my room, be nice if i wasn't in the middle of trying to lose weight though.

My wardrobe is really empty, i wear the same things every week, but dont want to buy any new clothes until i have lost all of the weight, otherwise i am just wasting my money on clothes that are too big for me.
Today i have another little job of lists, the biggest job on there is the ironing, god i hate ironing.
2 items on ebay have bids and will sell when they finish on saturday. Still have money in my paypal account that needs to be transferred and paid off the debt. May do this after the items sell on sat and i recieve that money so its a bigger amount i can pay off the debt.
Money in tomorrow, this is to last for the week, so will be food shopping and for the gym on sat, really need a good workout.
Right what room should i get rid of stuff from today??PAD Maker0 -
Going to drop the kids off with their dad, then take a trip to the gym to get a good workout, then later i am going with my mum to see my mate in hospital that has just had twins 8 weeks early. So no debt payments today, but hopefully the gym will help me with my weight loss.
House wont be cleaned today either as i wont be home till about 5pm and then it will be food, bath and getting the kids to bed. Wonder what i could watch on the telly tonight that doesnt involve stupid strictly or boring x factor.PAD Maker0 -
oooh i will be watching x-factor :rotfl:i get sucked in every year regardless of how boring it is lol
I hope you get yourself a good workout at the gym! And hope your friend & twins are doing well, that's pretty early to arrive even for twins isn't it? Hope they're all ok!
I have two items with bids on ebay too, considering i put on 26 i'm not too impressed lol. Esp as they are low priced items of 99p each

Didnt manage a gym workout, as my friend with the twins had to move hospital as they need the space for poorlier babies so me and mother took her to the new hospital to be with her beautiful babies. She could have gone in the ambulance with one of the twins IF she had a small bag. she had about 5 bags, she will be staying with them in the hospital so dont think one small bag would hold the stuff she needed for 6-8 weeks lol
Food wise, havent been doing brilliantly, neither has the exercise, Gotta get back into the swing of it.
No payments till tuesday when i get paid.
I am going out on saturday for a friends birthday, so need to save a bit of money for that, pkus i need to find something to wear. Dont go out often so this is my treat.
Have tried to look into getting the charges back from my welcome loan, the loan was originally for £3,500 but i started paying back the debt collecters from £4619 and it is now down to £4500 hoping i will get something, worth a try i supposePAD Maker0 -

They are going to ring me this week to work out a day that i can view it. If its alrite then i will take it and then it will be alot of paperwork and paying out. Cant beleive it though didnt expect that when i woke up this morning.PAD Maker0

Anyway pay day today £20 to rossendales, £13 to capquest £20 to daniel silverman and £10 to lewis DR. Need to go and get a few bits and bobs, was going to go after dropping my ds1 off at school but we got up late and was rushing about so decided to come home pay bills then go and get the stuff i need.
Hope the rain stops so i can walk to the shops, get a bit of exercise then, and it might wake me up a bit, feel like im in robot mode at the momentPAD Maker0 -
Ok so have been out and got some things i need, plus spent on buyin a mcdonalds for ds2 (shhh dont tell ds1, hes at school so wont know until he gets home and sees the balloon ds2 got)
May have to go and clean ds1s bedroom again as its a mess yet again.
Weigh in day tomorrow, hoping its a sts but wont be surprised if its a gain.
Ok time to see if theres any surveys anywhere, they all seem to have disappearedPAD Maker0 -
