So a lazy ish day here today. After a family day out yesterday we're staying in today. I am going to attempt to declutter our bedroom - who knows what little treasures I may find in the process!
I have some spreadsheets from previous, I'm thinking of writing them all out again and updating as appropriate. I mentioned before i had been on MSE previously and yesterday I decided to look up my old diary! It was quite motivating, I have actually settled 7 debts since my original LBM! Altho one thing that shocked me was the catalogue that I am working to pay off at the moment I had got the balance down to £99 - 2 years ago! :-O just shows I need to stay focused!

Well my decluttering didn't go as planned.. As ended up stripping wall paper instead! Woops! My ebay items end tonight - two have gone unsold and 28 still going. Any unsold items I will relist also got one or two other bits to put on!
I need to go to the bank and get some money bags so I can properly bag my change up and deposit it into the bank - this is the tightest week of the month for me so debt busting will be to a bare minimum :-/
Still got to submit my expenses for work aswell - what ever happened to Sundays being the day of rest?!
