Thanks OF

Just done the scores on the doors ( again!!) and I am now £146.61off getting below the £11k mark..if I don't go mad on holiday next week we can do it...

Stonking month or 2 on the panels...best month ever in July. Amazing.

Made a beetroot cake today. Yummy..much like carrot cake but pinker! Lush. Am taking the huge larder and fridge store with me on holiday so no need to buy food...well that's the plan!!

Have a great weekend peeps x

As purple as your beetroot cake?

I keep fancying the idea if getting some colourful skinny jeans.

Beanie- Haha- I doubt it!

HUGE diet starts next week and I need to up my exercise! If I wear skinny jeans they are usually with long boots and a long tunic style top to cover my thighs and tum from scaring everyone!!! :eek:

Hi Brizzled found your diary and thought I'd give it a quick read after the encouraging words you left on mine. Well a quick skim through, actually turned into a pretty much all day read from start to finish and I have to say I am mightily impressed with your dedication to debt busting :money: Your progress so far is amazing and give us sometime wobblers something to aim for :T

I've also picked up more than a few tips that I'm going to try out, Tilly Tidies for example are a brilliant idea :j

Have a great week and enjoy the sunshine :cool:

Thanks Indebted2U and my gawd, am very impressed at you piling through my ramblings over the past 2 years or whatever it is!! That's some staying power!

Yes there have been hiccups..given the cash I have received employment wise over the years and given that I have reputedly had my first LBM in 2003 why I am still £11k in debt is the truly shocking thing:eek: but just have to pick yourself up and make sure I get and STAY debt free this time..

So today...well what a bleak day it's been. Consequently we have all been playing games and reading..only spent £6.72 today...basically 2 Ebooks. That's it. Yesterday was sunny and gorgeous and we were on the beach, today no chance!:rotfl:

Eating well though.. Use ups and stuff from the fridge!

Have a great week folks x

Hi Brizzled, you have halved your debt in 2 months!!!! Beat yourself up again and we will need to have words.

Thank you lovely SBO:D

Have just paid an outstanding grocery bill..veggie boxes and stuff which takes me to over July's food budget. Just shows you how it mounts up and a wicked £140 on alcohol..:(:eek:
Quite a lot is still in the larder but even so...

Weather has drastically improved..thank goodness. Kids on beach with OH. I am reading and cooking..pasta and Use Ups sauce..a la tuna, olives and any veg I can find with a tomato sauce. Still spending as little as possible. £3.20 on bread and some cake and OH spent £5 on iTunes yest to keep us entertained!! It was raining loads:rotfl:

Tomorrow will probably be a spend day..I fancy steak and chips...and there is a butcher near here who is amazing..so it'd be rude not to!:T

Hope better weather is here to stay for the rest of the week

And hope everyone is good
