Well, just spoke to HSBC and they have defaulted me as my payments haven't gone up enough in my DMP. Ah well. Hope it will go to the DCA soon so that my payments aren't eaten up totally by interest every month

Hi all,
Well, I'm going to take it easy today and hope that I'll feel a little better for it too. I think I over did it yesterday!
Got to take passport app to post office and send various things - presents etc. Also got to get a few bits at the shops (top up shop) but shouldn't have to spend too much.
Returning to Slimming World tonight - I know I've put on quite a bit, but I can slowly get rid. Slow and steady eh?
Got a few bids on Ebay items. Need to list some more todayGoing to list some of those free DVDs from the paper and a Tumble Tots bag (BNWT so hopefully it'll go for more that 99p!).
Hope all are well today - not a good line drying day so might have to use the dryer if it continues to look as rain threatening as it does now!

Hi
Well feeling pleased as I was able to hang the washing out today (small things eh?). Have just taken some heavy duty painkillers and feeling a little out of it, so forgive me if I carry on today!
I had an awful shock at the bank - checked my balance and realised there was only £100 left for the WHOLE month!! Then I realised I'd spent loads of money and not transferred the money back in from all my different savings pots (birthdays, clothes etc) so quickly did that when I came back. I couldn't get anything for OH apart from (ahem) a car duster - wow, exciting. But then he rang saying he wanted a stand for the TV that costs a bloody fortune so he's not getting anything else if he's considering wasting money on things like that!! I have actually got birthday money saved that would pay for it if he really wanted it and then he wouldn't have to use living money...I'll think about it!
HAVE to get things listedon Ebay now so that I can get some holiday spending money as the DMP is beginning to bite now. the last olympic challenge really did take the edge off! I know I should use it towards the debt, but we have such a long way to go, I'd rather have a little spends so that we all don't go mad.
This Flylady stuff is really getting in my head now - it's quite scary! Today I did my morning routine and the zone mission AND a 15 min declutter. Madness!

Hi Sea, my enthusiasm with flylady lasted about 10 mins

Yes - I agree - but you can see the effects much more quickly than any of my diets lolCCCS DMP:Feb 07
