Gah another week has disappeared!
Lots has happened this week, but I'm trying to catch up with uploading the pretty things that will make me some money *hopefully* onto the online shop I have with f0lksy. I have got myself into a little bit more debt than I was in before, but it should all be covered by my overtime I did the other month so not that bad
I don't think I will have time to catch up on diaries thoughbut when I have finished uploading I shall start writing on diaries again. I haven't forgotten you all, and I'm still trying to put my MSE learnt skills into practice xx

I'm on my way home soon
back to the land of good food and decent chocolate!!!
DFW, I now have a shop on f0lksy, you can see it by looking on the link in my profile
Ok so my debt looks outrageous at the moment, due to work expenses it all took a turn for the worse as I didn't have a corporate card. However, due to overtime I have just now paid all of the c/c off, although until expenses come through I might have to use it sparingly so I can live this month. But I do have enough on the c/c to cover a deposit on a new flat when the OH and I start house hunting and this is crucialI know I shouldn't be using a c/c to pay for a deposit, and if I can save enough pennies to not have to then I will. However, if a place we love comes up and I don't have the cash saved, it'll be a good fall back
Oh and no more frivolous spending on the c/c nope nope nope. AND I'm going to try to start this budgeting stuff again. £50 a week to spend, nothing more. Anything for work goes on the corporate card. Will have to save from one week to spend it in the next. Maybe I'll put it into envelopes so I can only spend what I have. AND this month I'm banning myself from spending any money online.Diary: Getting back on track for 2013 and beyondDEBT FREE 13-10-13 :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Great I will take a look at your shop a little later. I love Folksy and Etsy as well. A friend of mine has had quite alot of success with jewellery making on both sites, so fingers crossed for you.
