We've had a chilled out day. OH decided against a cooked breakfast as it was using food we could use for tea in the week......he's on form MSE wise at the moment!!;)

OH went to see FIL whilst I finished the ironing, went upstairs to sort the clothes in the airing cupboard and promptly fell asleep on the bed...oops. That's the second time I've done that recently, not like me, but I obviously needed it. OH could tell I'd been asleep when he got back from the 'bed hair'.:D

Today was indeed NSD 9.

Sold 2 items on fleabay, only for 99p each but covered the postage.

Hope everybody has had a great weekend, and we all have a debt busting week. xx

Thanks brizzle and mummy, I did feel a bit guilty after my little nap.:o

This morning was horrible at home, DS1 was tired (tired teenager not good at any time but definitely not on a Monday morning!!), DS2 dropped a box of 'rice pops' on the floor, they went everywhere because somebody hadn't folded the bag inside and shut the lid. DS3 then freaked out because I'd done his breakfast and called him, he then nipped to the toilet so when he came back had a meltdown because his 'wheat bricks' had gone soggy.......oh the joys on breakfast time.

Have started another healthy eating plan today aka 'a diet'. Haven't told anybody at work, as you are frowned up by the women I work with if you have more than the juice of a lettuce leaf for lunch.:D

Hope everybody has a good day.xx

I just knew something or somebody would come along a try and dampen my day.......and it was bcard. Well OH's bcard, they have started to charge interest only from last month when the payment increased. Cheeky monkeys!!! OH is going to ring stepchange tomorrow and see what they say.

One step forward.......six back.

brizzledfw

Sorry re BC..I am looking forward to not being with them in less than 5 days time if I am honest..am sure its a random thought process but for some reason them and Mr T just get my goat

Barclaycard's policy for people on debt management plans is quite strict.

If you are making token payments then they charge no interest but as soon as you pay more than they deem reasonable they charge interest of 1% (I think) a month.

I have told my clients to carry on paying token and pay off the other debts first.

If you don't speak to Barclaycard later I will try and confirm exact details after work.

Morning Alice,

Oh I hate it when things come out of the woodwork when you least expect them. Hope you sort Bcard out.

Re the diet, im starting on one yesterday too!
Im going to track my calories on myfitnesspal and hopefully do some exercise too. Day 2 and doing well so far!!! xx
