Time to address the finances...

And so another busy weekend in the A household. Spent some money this weekend, but was budgeted for so not so bad. room now all done and everything else we need to have purchased so all good :j.
We have done a few sales so far this month and only have a sort amount and we are in to the 25's. Yes you heard me people the 25's . Let me tell you I never thought we would get there. DH is sort of onboard ( fits and starts) sometimes he is sometimes he isnt - but hey it is definately better than not at all.
He is away all this week until Friday night - which means there will be lots of NSD's my house will stay tidier all week :rotfl: And I may even start the glossing in the the living room - I said May, lets see what the week brings..gloss is in the garage so I dont have to have any spends, and it I actually painted teh ceiling aswell it means that the room would be finished..another one down.:T Not sure there are enough hours in the week to complete it all but I may give it a go..

Anyway off now to list some more items x

:j:j:j:j Pay day end of the month.. and yes we have made it into the 25's:money::money: Still a long way to go, but hey we did it.
And have if I am honest not been doing loads, as really trying to save as go down to 1 wage from July..so things are going to bereally tight..

Anyway we got there thats the main thing, next stop 24..:D Will update later, but may have a glass or 2 over the weekend all in budget obviously

And so thought I would go back to posting in the mornings to keep me on the straight and narrow . Also last time I did this, I remained focussed and cleared quite a bit of debt. So will try it also means I go into my banking and transfer over the odd £'s to my savings then when enough I pay a bit of a CC. So lets see how long this lasts..
Sales have been really slow, infact I have a few watchers and nothing else..still have all the games to sell, but no one seems to want them ( not that I blame them) I really cant get excited about computers and platform games, but hey people do:D Think I need to look at where else to sell them.
Anyway off to work catch you all later x

ive found sales really quiet recently. i was selling a lot of Twinklets items but ive ended up giving them away to a friends as im sick of keep trying with them.

have you tried music magpie? soon adds up on there.

i hadnt noticed your news about a little person! congratulations! xxx

and congratulations for being in te £25s x

Aamberle

Hi LL - Thanks for the congratulations, Mr A and I are super excited:D. But means we really should of started all this focus about 2 years sooner, but hey better late than never isnt that what they say?
So a NSD for me yesterday, and this morning paid off the odd pence to my CC. Back to the bank getting lots of little payments again, it really does all add up.
Mmm Music Magpie - still a bit dubious with them, I used to use them regularly but then the last time I sent some bits in, money never went into my bank - they said there was an error - would not let me update/check anything even though they had paid in before, so I asked for a cheque to be sent - so at least I would get my money, and they refused as the transaction would not let me change payment details. I emailed several times and still nothing - so they owe me for last transaction. Dont get me wrong its not loads around a fiver but its not the point it's my money..and there is only so many emails you can send before losing the will to live..I know I should not give up, but jeez they really make it tough to speak to someone human.

Anyway off to work now, need to do my expenses and mileage claims today
Have a good day x

lurvlyloz

ahh yea that is a pain. ive only used them once and it went fine

have a good day

Hi Aamberle,Great to hear that you are now in the 25's, shame about music magpie, not sure that companies realise that things like that can mean people really loose trust. Hope sales start to pick up for you, might be quieter because we are heading into holiday time.Fae
