    Envelopes sound a good idea have 2 cars and I know they just keep putting it up.
    Well i have 3 birthdays which i completely forgot about. February is going to be a tight month and march even worse as I wont get very good pay in February.
    Well it is Monday again I have lots to do at work although on the bright side 3 wks and it is half term.
    I have completed 10 days 12 hours of no smoking. Using zero nicotine patches. That is a saving of £82.
    Have a good day everyone.

    Laptop still not working. I am now on day 23 of no smoking. I have had a really rough week at work job 1 think I have to start looking for a new one.
    Received a letter from Barclaycard about 2 of my cards they are changing the default to Sept 13 which is better although they have also in the same letter asked for remaining money as a final demand rang and they said ignore ?
    I must get ready for job 2 have to set off a minute. Debt still there.

    Well half term at last. Bad news last week no longer any discount for DD gymnastics so I have decided to set up a storm which means I won't hopefully notice.
    Why are children so expensive. I have paid a 12 th of my payment to my mum hoping I can become debt free by 2015
