Pick up my package from post office - done! Was my love to shop Christmas savings vouchers
:j yaaaaaay vouchers, have fun with those!
Get nails done - I have bitten them all down due to stress so this will be done this once only the once they have grown I shall go back to doing them myself... PROMISE! - done! That's the last time I am spending £25 on them though! No more biting due to stress
Ooooh I bet they look lovely, this will be a good incentive not to bite them.
Send off old phone to mazooma mobile - cant do! I have found the bag that I kept the charger and phone in... Without the phone! Now I am hoping that its just fallen out (even though it was nearly fully sealed) and not that a family member who has pawned stuff of mine in the past has taken it. Will keep you posted.
Any news on finding the phone?Don't turn a slip up into a give up

Just off for a bath now to help cramps and maybe even get dressed and go get some bits of shopping sorted - who knows
Good luck with all your stepsxxx

Hi everyone :wave:
Glad you haven't dissappeared on us Fairyclicks, I hope you get your internet sorted soon.
Well how has it got to hump day so quickly? I still have 2 things on my list to do...:(
But today I have positive steps to report rather than a list
- emptied all the bins
- cleaned out fridge
- sorted out TWO boxes of paperwork (big ones too)
- Shredded and recycled lots of paperwork that I didn't need
- Did 4 loads of washing
- cleaned and tidied up kitchen
- sorted out specsavers stuff
- bought metro pass
- taught two great classes (I was feeling down so made sure I put the effort in)
- Made myself go to hot yoga, so glad I did.
Don't turn a slip up into a give up

what on earth is hump day Suzi? :rotfl::rotfl:
Well done on getting through so many things the last few days :beer: esp when you feeling a bit down - thats a great achievement!!
I'm still stepping away even when i can't get online - feels funny doing it the old fashioned way - with a pen and piece of paper :rotfl: getting through the moving things stuff like changing address etc quite well and hopefully i will have proper internet access again from 7th Dec
Today i am going to try and get some things listed on ebay/fb if i can cope with getting bounced off every few mins.......even just a few things listed would be good
Hope you have a great dayxxxx

Hiya, hahaha its not what you think. I've picked it up from the NSD thread, wednesday is the 'hump' of the week because it is uphill to wednesday and downhill from there until friday woooooooooo! (Although I don't really go by this rule as with 2 jobs that aren't 9-5 weekends off are very rare! :rotfl:)
Thanks I was happy I got some things done, been at work ALL day today though and taught a class this evening so I'm knackered today, bedtime methinks.
Good luck with fleabay and fb sales :money:charleybear wrote: »Do work that has been set on my college website

Hello
I havent posted here before so hopefully these are the right kinds of things to say but my 10 would be
1. Signed the paperwork for our new Sainsburys 15 month 0% APR card which means we can balance transfer over our biggest credit card debt saving £80 a month in interest. Big sigh of relief.
2. Managed to order a replacement lid for the work food processor costing £13 but saving around £60 to buy a whole new unit. Food processors are so delicate!!
3. Made freezer food dinner for our evening meal.
4. Brought home leftover food from work for my OHs sandwiches tommorow.
5. Located some great savings on day to day items for work.
6. Tommorow is OHs payday and we've stuck to our budget within a reasonable +/- this month. This is really important because this is the first month since our new business opened we havent had to use savings to survive!
7. Have written half the thank you notes for my sons birthday presents and posted them.
8. Up to date on all housework
9. Items to sell located - 1 barely used Nespresso machine anyone
10. I posted here" Your vibe attracts your tribe":D
Debt neutral27/03/17 from £40k:eek: in the hole 2012.

Thanks for the lovely welcome Fairyclicks, I am sorry not to have replied sooner, I havent yet figured out how to set up a message when I get replies, or isnt that possible on here? I think because I am still at the start of my moneysaving 'journey' I probably just have more big things to say. Its when you are doing well you have less to say I'd imagineGood work on your ebaying!
