Good morning

So shopping last night, bill was £99 but found some money of vouchers plus reward points took my spend down to £51 Stocked up now again and plenty of meals for the weekend with OH.

Spent £66 on filling the car up but thats all budgeted.

Mum has gifted me £600 to help pay for the car so have sent that to my credit card straight away. A NSD today, lunch bought in. Should be one again tomorrow

Good morning

Successful weekend again, managed to move load more of ex's stuff up to the loft clearing huge spaces in the house. Also managed to strip and rub down all the wallpaper in the hallway. Phoned carpenter yesterday and they will hopefully call me back in few days to come in and do some boxing in of pipes, then can get a plasterer in to do a few tidy up jobs and then its just a case of doing some small filling works and then painting and then will be ready to go

Have moved my pc upstairs (ex was using it) so my room is all set up to ebay now, just need to find the time to do it!

Out babysitting tonight for sister, tomorrow must sort out haynets for week, but may find 5 minutes to list few items and then thursday I have hossie trainer and then friday of to kent for the weekend. I have got a few bits written down so will see if I can remember to take them to Kent and can do ebay at OH's.

NSD's on the weekend as had bought food in advance, one yesterday and another one today so all helps. Car in tomorrow so a big bill will ensue Need to get some money out as well for hoss trainer and for some hay as now putting wee bits out in the field as grass has stopped growing a bit.

Good morning

So yesterday ended up being spendy Hamster is poorly, possible mange as she has lost all her fur, could be something else but not sure as she is 2 and a quarter so old. So took her to vets and got some drops to see if it will help so £30 spent

So running late for babysitting at my sisters so rush to do the hoss so £4 on a takeaway for dinner Got £34 out as well for yard owner for 2 bales hay and this weekend looking after hoss so will give that to her tonight.

Today will be another spendy day as car gone into garage so £900 bill later Typical as today will be walking to/from garage, about 5 mins each way to work and back so not massive, but managed to skid down the stairs this morning and have really hurt my foot so that was fun and going to be more fun later

Is it the weekend yet!

Baldybear

Just spent a wee bit more money, needed yard broom, been borrowing a friends but she is moving at the weekend, OH found one for me £10 on amazon, had £2 gift voucher so £8.38 spent, free delivery so not too bad.

£5 received from survey site so that has been sent to the CC

Good morning

Foot still hurts from skidding down the stairs Meant to have hossie trainer tonight but will have to leave her to it as am limping around and cant walk much, typical :cool:

Car fixed but now £890 poorer :eek:

Fed up last night so spent £6 on takeaway, thats 2 days on the trot Meant to do some washing or ebay, anything productive, but did hossie, sorted out her room and feeds and hay and then just came home and sat on the sofa. In bed by 9 as shattered.

Mortgage statement through, now owe £154K so have paid of £11K in just over 2 years so wee bit more equity in the house.

Carpenter organised to come to house on 4 Nov to do the works so pleased that side is progressing

Pay day today £50 sent to credit card from hoss food budget (already bought but paying of as per budget).

My credit card now stands at £3238 , biggest its ever been but will get it down somehow. Got stuff ready to go on ebay listed and photoed so will take to OH's and do this weekend

I don't know if you've got any old horsy stuff, but it's selling really well on ebay. Even some unknown brand of old bits have gone for a tenner. Rugs are going well as winter approaches. You could make a dent in that car bill quite quickly!

What Piq said! I sold a seatsaver for £46 and a girth for £14 last weekend - I only paid £20 for the seatsaver in the first place!

Good morning

Late at work today, cough 11 cough, but stupid wind knocked down a load of trees on way out of Kent so stuck, but nice to enjoy a lay in for a change so 9 instead of 5.30

Successful non spendy weekend, helped OH fix few more bits in his house so looking really good.

Managed to list 35 items on ebay, including 10 of OH's but I make a percentage on the profit Had lots of message about some of OH's stuff asking about BIN but going to leave to run at auction.

Put 3 rugs on ebay at the good advice of Piq and Caz, 2 have 99p bids on and the other is up to £18 already Its an old Thermatex, worn but still ok bar a few rips but picture says it all, so pleased with that.

Put rest of rugs on local fb selling page and think sold 3 already

Sounds like things are cracking on well, is there much more to do in house before it is ready for selling?

Ouch to car bill and ouch to foot is it any better.
