Finally coming to my senses.....

Hi,

Yeah I have used the snowball calculator, I try to look at it every month to see if I'm making progress, the last couple if months I haven't but at least it hasn't moved! I'm hoping as I'm now re-focused I will be able to get it moving pretty quickly.

A NSD day yesterday & another planned for today, I start work soon so no expenses today.

Pay day is on 31st May, just under 2 weeks left to go and not a lot of money left
£94.30 left
£20 petrol for 2 weeks
£20 electric for 2 weeks
£10.88 internet

£43.42 left for food, I have enough food for this week and anything else that might pop up. I have got next week off work so all of this money will probably be used up.
Going to have a rummage through my drawers at work as I know I have some receipts there, that I can claim back in expenses.

Not quite a NSD like I expected, I needed electric, but this was budgeted for so I don't feel too bad.

I have an old laptop which I haven't used in a couple if years, am going to sell it as I have no use for it.
Anyone know where I could sell it? Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Try ebay, gumtree and if you have a facebook account try searching for selling groups in your area.

Good luck with the sale

Thanks, I will try there but I'm unsure if it works properly. Was thinking of maybe one of these places that you can send unwanted mobile phones??

This evening I tidied and organised the front room, is looking much less cluttered and I feel more relaxed for it. A big pile of ironing which needs to be done tomorrow though

Plans for tomorrow:
- another NSD
- go to the gym (free parking so no expense)
- a big pile of ironing
- review online banking to check all accounts
- take a stroll along the seafront

Had a look through my draw at work and found loads of receipts that I need to process, I think I have about £240 in expenses to claim, I will put in the claim next week while I'm off work.

Another NSD today and another one tomorrow as I will be working.
