OMG I think I would have killed DS if he had done that to the TV, boys are a nightmare.0 -
Sat with DS this afternoon whilst he watched The Croods and I caught up with survey on the laptop.
Managed to earn a few more pennies but no payouts, also checked bank accounts but no change.
Ihave made a cake and put spuds in the oven for tea, also managed to get half a basket of ironing done.0 -

Hello Penny, my fellow Elephant! sounds like you are doing really well on your debt free journey :T
Sorry if I've missed it - have you a 'debt free' date in mind?
Love oven spuds too!
Enjoy the rest of your break, Stripes xBarclaycard CC TBC

evening stripes, last time a checked my debt free date it was the beginning of 2019,it has probably decreased since then but I find it too depressing to check, so I keep setting myself mini goals and keep thinking I will get there eventually.

It sounded like a lovely day as others said and you got more than enough done for what you thought wasn't going to be the most productive day so well done you, esp on the ironing which isn't the most favourable task to undertake!
Mini goals are achievable and help keep you focused and at the end, the debt will be gone.Debt - CCV £3792
CCB £1383 (took a hit for a holiday)
Loan 1 £1787
Loan 2 £1683

Perhaps it would cheer you up though to see how many months you've knocked off
