well i really need to stop spending money time to tighten the belt and start ,we are off on holiday in 3 weeks no more holiday stuff required .after we return i am going to try and live off £50 a week no messing that includes kids fees for stuff .the food might be interesting for a while . i am also going to try and make this money as extra leaving the wages to first sort the overdraft and then tackle the cc1 cc2 cc3 cc4 then loan then mortgage .
hope ev1 is well declutter ebay bootsale and freecycle we have too much stuff .and apart from dd new school uniform there will be no new stuff till the first birthday in november .essential shopping only means xmas should be a freebie .plan written i will update everyday . i am a woman on a mission overdraft clear by nov first .

out today to see elton john hubbys xmas present ,using money from scrap copper that we sold last week.cant wait.
will keep at the second job and going to chase nurse bank re extra shifts the more money coming in the better want this lot gone .
its strange how once you actually start a diary that it sits there as a nudge to keep plugging going to do a soaand snowball calculator when we get back from holiday and update my signature so i can see the count down of my totals.
i feel very positive and will get oh on board wonder if the dog will start eating value dog food she is refusing lol dont think she understands might have to give her half and half.
i am also quitting alcohol for 3 months after holiday and decluttering actively as much to give us space in this house as to raise money .
oh well need to get on supposed to be somewhere else ,im away to get dd a phone as hubby has signed up for a contract and is not using it do £10.50 a month away to the wind she starts high school august and we need to be in contact ,so thats her treat,oh using clubcard vouchers for it.

Hi elly
Well done on the money from the extra job, that's a fair wack to throw at your debts isn't it?

Good luck for the living on £50 a week been trying to do that for the last 2 months lol

Have a lovely time watching Elton John and hope you found a phone for DD.
