The "I WILL be debt free" diary...

Had a great time, thanks Scuba! Always get grumpy for a day or two after the bf leaves but I'm ok now!

Notwithstanding the potential tax rebate, things are going to be really tight until at least Christmas. If the rebate comes through I'll be absolutely fine.

I'm working every day now until further notice. Still no news on the cruise job so I'll just keep plugging away in London town for now and have no social life needs must where the debt drives...

Had another top cash back payment which came in handy, and getting paid from two companies are paying me this week, so keeping my head above water for now

Morning!

Promoting a gym chain today and tomorrow, free gym afterwards :j which is doubly good because our shower is on the blink (boiler light keeps going off mid-way :mad:) so a long hot shower is definitely needed!!

Only working 11-3 today, gonna try and get an evening shift too. Need to go to Mr T's, depending on work I'll go either today or tomorrow.

Enjoy the gym shower

Hope you get the evening shift.

It was a great shower, scuba!

In other news, my start date is confirmed for the ship :j:j:j

I start rehearsals on valentines day and join the ship on the 30th april, but they want me to come in and start with the creative team on the three new shows next month some time, and there's a chance I can work til May 2015 :T

Can't believe it's finally happening. Got things to sort out (bank account, insurance) but before that I have to try and get some sleep, doing 2 promo shifts tomorrow. Then on Wednesday I'll be donning a morph suit for a restaurant chain. No, really.

Agh, totally won't sleep tonight!!!!!

:j Fantastic news, so glad you've got the start date confirmed.

I really hope that you get to stay with the ship until the May. I'm a little bit jealous, I'm starting to get itchy feet and keep pricing up flights to interesting places. Pity I can't afford to go anywhere at the moment.

ladymay

Thanks

Well there are always jobs going on the ships, all sorts of areas. If you love travelling it's a great way to get paid to do it!

I have a throat infection :mad:

Off work for the rest of the week, part of me is annoyed that I'm missing out on the £70 I was going to earn over Thursday afternoon/Friday morning, but quite a large part of me is relieved! Gonna write an epic to-do list I can get on with, have loads of stuff to sell still, check all my paperwork is good to go, and generally watch rubbish tv and eat proper food. The shop opposite has medium size pumpkins for £1.25 so I'll be making some pumpkin soup

Argh, I'm getting loads of pressure to go out for my friend's birthday on Saturday. Aside from being ill and not having much of a budget for going out atm, it's in Nottingham and there are no cheap train tickets. I really hate missing out on fun... Hopefully if/when I get my tax rebate I'll have some spare cash to hire a car and see people.

Just checked my bank account - Top Cashback came through, another £15.75 in :j

ladymay

Still in the house being all ill and stuff and it's Saturday night and EVERYONE is out having fun except me. Grump grump grump!

Spent the past few days cooking and sorting stuff out ready for the big move!! I'm back to economy cooking, I've made batches of pumpkin soup, whole rolls and chicken stew, definitely enough to keep me going for a few days nice and healthy too! I've also stuck a few bags of stuff on Gumtree so hopefully I'll have a bit more space and money.

Oooooo, on Top Cashback there's an offer on Gala Bingo - spend £10 to get £39.90 cashback. I'll be back...

I'm home tonight too - tucked up in bed with my warmest pjs and a bottle of vodka and a litre of cola, junk food and X-factor.

I probably should be looking for ways to make money but other than doing SBTV and insta's reward radio I cba.
