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 itAll back on track now though and the production line is flowing nicely
You're right Skint, family is amazingnot 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 debtDebt - CCV £3792

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 moneyI have "found" a chq for £52 which I forgot about
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!

We need a team america type chant but it would be too cheesy

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!Debt - CCV £3792

£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.
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!!.
I'm off to subscribe.
