So another year passes!
Time to get back into this diary.
So let's see where I am.
Still working part time, although I take every scrap of overtime put my way.
Need to update my signiture as my debts have changed somewhat.
Still have the money of simply be on my back. However it is on direct debit and so is at least paid regularly.
I took out a credit card with Aqua to rebuild my credit. That is going well, always paying in full every month.
I was offered an increase in limit to £1000 which I refused.
Oooh lunch is ready I'm starving back later with more news.SIMPLY BE-££577.11:eek:

Mmm lunch was scrummy.
Cold cuts and leftovers from yesterday's easter lunch.
Feeling a bit rudderless today. I'm in work at 5pm till 12:30am.
So currently lounging on here.
Going to have round up of total debts so I can change signature.
Little 'uns off out with big sis to the movies so ill have a swill round then off to work I go.
Lots of fun stuff planned for this week not totally mse but all bought on deals :money:
Tomorrow we're off to see the Thames barrier centre and then find the last two shaun the sheep statues.
Weds is princess day with a trip to the cinderella exhibition followed by a trip to the cinema to see the film.
Thursday we are up monument and going to the tower bridge experience.
I must say I do love london so many things to do.
Packed lunches everyday keeps the costs down.
Haven't listed on bay of flea for quite a while as I just don't have the time.
Besides working and the needs of the family, last Oct I started a open university degree in psychology this takes up my waking hours and although has been enjoyable it's probably the hardest thing I've ever done.
Anyhoo enough rambling from me.SIMPLY BE-££577.11:eek:

Morning!
Woken up early by the men mowing the lawn!
Successful double shift banked yesterday, so more money in the pot esp at it was time and half:T all going towards the flooring for the front room. I'll get the paint this weekend then get the floor measured ready for next month's wages.
Was off today to Thames barrier centre but it's closed till Thursday. So in stead we are off to the Olympic Park. Will grab some lunch bits on the way to keep costs down.
Hoping to round up pennies later to make a payment to something.
Haven't a clue what's for dinner, since kids have been off its been crazy here. Will order a shop for Friday and meal plan.
Need to make more bread and get some snacks baked.
Well the sun is shining and I'm off to peg out, get some brekkie then head off.
see ya ltr

Morning diary!
Very lazy morning in bed!
Meal plan and weekly shop ordered.
Pennies left bank just for bus fares and electric top up.
Cashed out iPoll earning and bought some x mas presents using PayPal.
Odds and sods being used up for dinner.
Going to have a final cuppa then start decluttering youngests room ready for santa coming.
Closed down my think money bank account, this is a big step for me as I was paying them £17.50 a month to help sort out my direct debits.
Now I'm going to do it all myself. Really pleased we now have banking apps. Makes life so much easier.SIMPLY BE-££577.11:eek:
