19.4.07 what small DFW thing will you be doing/have you done today?

Good Morning!

Let us all know what small steps you are taking today on your road to being debt free. Be proud of them, they may be small, but they are oh so important :D

Today I will be:

- sending everyone off with packed lunches
- making a storecupboard dinner
- trying to find the cheapest way of replacing my dead laptop :cry:
- checking on-line banking
- giving someone a birthday present that was bought in the January sales
- listing DS's water damaged phone on ebay in the hope someone will buy it and I can add it to the "things you never thought you would sell" thread on here :o

Have a good day everyone and enjoy the sunshine x

    Good morning everyone

    I'm tied to the house today so I'm going to bake some bread and make a storecupboard meal ( that hopefully will also do lunch tomorrow) and do grated cheese and chopped onions for the freezer.
    I have already turned the boiler off because we don't need a tank of hot water today so why heat one?
    Hopefully I'll do more but this will do for a start.

    Have a good day everybody.:rotfl:

    Few things:

    - NSD for me today, definitely. Unless I get tempted by online browsing, but I refuse to let that happen.
    - Brought lunch to work...
    - with my mobile charger (first time I've remembered it in weeks!)
    - And I'll be checking my online banks in a bit.

    Can I put down that I took a hilly route to work today? All that coasting saves on the fuel something amazing :D

    Today I will mostly be sitting around on my a**e doing as little as possible. Will probably spend the afternoon playing on Viva pinata as I caught up with loads of housework yesterday and deserve a(nother) day off ;)
    Have done my piggy comps, might have a look round for things to ebay if I get bored. LOL.
    I won't be spending any money either (Dh does that for me. lol).
