    Morning peeps - thanks for the words of encouragement! It's really nice to hear.

    We only had 2 eggs instead of 6-8 so they were affected by it :( All back on track now though and the production line is flowing nicely :)

    You're right Skint, family is amazing :D not just for this reason either lol.

    Wow these days are going quickly!!!

    I can't wait to be DF! I have been planning SO much for when I am. The start of the good life, it'll be amazing. I hope we manage to get our business up and running. That would be the cherry on top of the cake. All thought in the making atm as I can't push anything until I am ready to follow through which will be when DF.

    I am worried as I think I have lost my bank card. Will have a rummage tonight - it's doing things in a rush. I hate feeling unorganised.

    Balances are looking good though, all on track. Did go a bit nuts and spent on groceries but will reflect in the GC when I have added and subtracted everything I need to.

    Made base curry which will see us through a good few week's curry nights so pleased about that - starting tonight mmmm.

    Right - off to pay what I can to the EVIL debt :)

    Morning world

    £2.18 to the card this morning.

    I am feeling pleasingly motivated and happy today - which is great as I was in a foul mood last night with myself. Not to worry - that is passed now.

    All is looking good in the world of money :) I have "found" a chq for £52 which I forgot about :o as I opened the letter when the kids were running riot and put it in a safe place,.....and forgot about it. Anyway - that is going in the bank towards paying last months excessive spends. I will have cleared those as soon as pay days hits so back to where I was 2 months ago however with my new found DFD :)

    Really pleased with how things are going - I have come so far from the days when I literally couldn't afford to live day to day. It's a nice feeling in a weird way.

    On the good life side of things, talks are hotting up and I think it's only a matter of time before we decide to progress things - well as we know, I can't while I have debt and seen as no one knows about it that means it's even more important for me to get shot.

    Speaking of which, I am off to check ebay!

    I am feeling very positive this morning :) Which is good as I found myself in a right strop for a couple of days!

    I spent on a sausage butty this morning which is naughty and the reason is I didn't bring any breakfast into work or have any before I left. So must try harder!

    It's that time of the month when things quieten off financially and I want to pay more than I have.

    Ebay finishes tonight but only 1 item looks like it'll sell - oh well, onwards onwards!

    It's all go!

    £12.78 paid to the card.

    Things are moving in the right direction and I have just realised that I spend that much time trying to make the figures say zero that I didn't realise I don't spend on cards any more and manage solely on what I have and pay debt off! Before I couldn't live on what I had and used cards EVERy week. Shocking. I have come such a long way - very pleased.

    Hey DF :)

    I finally made it over to your diary :o.

    You are doing so well. I love the idea of counting the paydays down until you're debt free. 17 paydays sounds like no time at all!! :D.

    I'm off to subscribe.
