    Hi all

    Quick post as I'm shattered. I always know when my iron levels drop as I'm in bed by 10pm and knackered. Back on the iron tablets for me.

    Today was SFD3:).

    Hey all,

    Is lovely to hear where people have come from. Thanks Raven... I do think that embarking on this journey and becoming debt free... you do shed that old life and often friends, partners, old habits too - that no longer serve your new way of living. Hopefully that cleared the decks for happiness to come in...

    It does feel like when my debt is cleared - that ball and chain is going to snap - and I'm going to float off in my new debt free hot air balloon into another World entirely! I can't wait.

    Night all!!!

    Morning! Quick early checking in post as i'm away for a few days now, back Saturday night. Today is a spend day, but tomorrow and Saturday aren't.

    Not sure what the internet will be like so may not be able to check in tomorrow, but i'll try my hardest!

    I'll need a bit of willpower these next few days, but I shall try to be strong!

  • Morning all

    And congrats on the baby news kerri...

    Just a quick one for me today. I have an unplanned spend coming up today. One of our cats is under the weather again and I'm going to take him to the vets. I think he has toothache but he's stopped cleaning himself and has a horrid, crusty, bleeding nose. I've left it a couple of days but he's still not looking great so time to get him looked at.

    Yesterday and Tuesday were sfd's though.

    Good morning fellow yompers

    I will hopefully try and catch up with everyone once I've got DS to preschool as there are lots of posts.

    Had a spend day yesterday as I wasn't very organised. Spent £7.80 at the play barns mostly on drinks and £2.33 on groceries. I'm not planning on spending anything today or tomorrow though. I've bought a monthly pass for the play barn as it's easy entertainment for DS while I'm like a whale :rotfl:Just need to remember to sneak in our own drinks and snacks as well as my knitting/tapestry to keep me entertained. We are planning a family day out on Saturday but haven't decided yet. We might take DS on his first boat ride at the local boat lift. The museum & park is free so we'd just need to pay £14 for DH & I on the boat. I will try & research £5 days out though first.

    Right, catch up with you all later xx

    Morning Yompers,

    really quick catch up - haven't even got time to read all your news as work calls

    As predicted - spend day yesterday - but just the £15 for the pooches. Today is planned as a NSD as would like to do the week's shopping tomorrow.

    So summary is still:
    SFD - 1/20
    Budget £15/£200

    3 x £5 days out - 0/3
    De-clutter 0/100

    Tonight I plan to have a house tidy so hopefully will find some things to e-bay as part of de-cluttering mode

    Anyway - really must go as spreadsheets need attention
