The kick up the a&£e diary for debt busting

These days I tend to wake up when mr tc's alarm goes off and I can never get back to sleep!
So I've been awake since about 6 this morning.
Today is going to be a busy day. I've already done some jobs, so at least I've made a start.
I've made a start on saving for the tax bill too.-it saves me worrying about it later.
Right, off to do some more work!

Well, I've achieved 46/100 so far this year and it's nearly the half way point. So I'm optomistic I can smash the target as I still have loads and loads of stuff I need to get rid of-it just doesn't appear to be going down!

Got some packing to do this morning. Then photographing and listing.
It's free listing on private bay accounts until 11.59 tonight! You have to accept the offer.

Well done on getting half way! You'll get there

Thanks jwil. :j
I ended up going to bed for the afternoon-unwell, again! So nothing achieved yesterday.
Today I am Working hard at the moment-to try and make up for yesterday's epic fail! :j

Been shredding lots of old paperwork today-not even a quarter of the way there yet.
Still got lots of work to do
Managed to get some stuff in loft yesterday.
Slowly catching up on washing...again.
Seriously thinking of tackling loft this weekend...
New mantra: if I don't need it, haven't got a use for it or it's not beautiful...it needs to go.
let's hope I can now practice what I preach. I really need to get rid of about 2/3 of the contents of the loft-that will be quite an achievement...and about 4 car loads. Best make a start on something!

Tilly tidies done. £2.52 to savings. Another £5 to ISA-only got another few thousand to go until it's full!
Need to get some work done?,

Good luck with clearing the loft! I'm being much more ruthless these days. I'm kind of following the Kon Marie principles - not decluttering according to her schedule, but doing the whole 'does it spark joy' test (which obviously doesn't count for a lot of things that are used regularly).

Thanks jwil. Not even managed to make a start on the loft yet!
I must look into the kon Marie method. Is it a book? Might have to invest!
