September's Step-Up!!!

Still can't update my signature, grr!

Anyway, evening everyone

Managed to bag a bargain coat at a charity shop today, £13, had a look online, it was £70 :j

I had three jobs to do today: work out, shopping and cleaning. Work out - done. Shopping - done. Cleaning - well, 2 out of 3 ain't bad... I did, however, write descriptions for all the clothes left from the auction lot, do a bunch of washing and make a very nice apple crumble! So that makes up for not hoovering, right?

Quick update on my tallies:

Food £62.03/£100
Transport £106/£100
Misc £80.77/£200
Beauty £7.64/£10
Food bank £0/£3
NSD 7/18

Hope everyone's had a lovely weekend x

Sat and sun Spend days today was not expected but forgot loo roll yesterday. Annoying and I need suet for Stew and Dumplings on Tuesday so I might not make the 18 now am a bit peeved but ill try not two. Its difficult being on two courses starting in September and I need things but hey ho they are planned at least.

No exercise really this weekend. Still need to donate to trusell must do that next week.

Everyone seems to be doing fab! Keep it up!

Still can't update signature. Mmhhh?

Anyway, confused. My spreadsheet says I have got £8 pounds left but my account says £34. Unless sth from the weekend hasn't registered yet. So will go over my budgets again, Grrrr... However, I know where every penny went. Also the cheque for my driving licence only cashed now, so that's another £50 quid gone. I maybe put the bike stuff on my normal card rather than the CC. Will wait a few days and check my account again.

The next 5 days should all be SFDs though.

EDIT: sorted, my spreadsheet was wrong. I said I spend 300 on gardening when the actual bill only was 277.

Hello all! Also can't update my signature!

So still on 8/18 SFDs - today is due to be one (then I might actually be half way there!!!), and then tomorrow going to the market.

And 16/30 AFDs! Yay!!! I have to say - I rarely drink alcohol anyway so not really that tricky for me!

Have a good day everyone! Eugh - dislike Mondays! x

Congratulations littleskintdragon ~ so pleased baby dragon arrived safely!

had 3 sfd's in total so I'm now upto 8/18

Paid DS1 college money, DS2 dinner money, £2 to DD1 for a maths revision book and ordered 7 sets of books online for birthday and christmas presents for grand total of £36.85 (including extra 10% off and free p+p ~ some of the books had 8 or 9 books per set). I'm really happy with this cos I think Christmas pressies should all be bought by end of November AND budgeted for too

Also done a little top up shop, but will need to buy more tomorrow (couldn't carry it all home!)

Have a great day everyone!

Well reporting in today will be a sfd making a grand total to date of 11/26

Haven't a treats budget oops I know we should not be having treats so added my meal out yesterday for 10 pounds to my food budget.
Havester good value chicken, fries and peas, unlimited salad bowl and 2 drinks that price.:j

AFD including today 14 that is saving my at least 5-10 pounds per week on wine. Not sure if it is helpiug in weight loss need to find some cheap scales somewhere?

Happy Monday folks. kept off the naughty step now:eek:

SFD for me today. It has been an easy enough day at work. Managed to scramble one last OT shift for the month on the last weekend... was hoping for another but couldn't get it... ahhhh well it will still enable a massive hit off the debts in November as well as October..

Been reading more travel blogs inbetween working REALLY hard ...teehee!!!

Am starting late tomorrow and "might" go to the cinema tonight but the showing are all so dire it's almost not worth it..... ahem... I might...*cough cough* .. go to the gym instead. I think it will be more beneficial...

Anyone up early enough to be scared by the Insanity work out infomericlas thingies from the USA.. I want to try it (and not with knock off Dvd's before anyone suggests this) but at a not-so-MSE £99 I think I need to start using my gym membership a little more first...

It's only recently that I have REALLy been noticing my 1.5 stone weight gain. I used to be all muscle with a 19% bodyfat for those that care......You can't see the gain per se but I can.... I have no tummy over-hang etc but my jeans are very very very uncomfortably tight and I do not feel sexy at all. I know I can whole-heartedly get rid of it but with debt busting encompassing my entire being at the moment I am suitably drained - so perhaps a little at a time and at least try to get there for something other than the sauna...

I think I might go there for a fat loss weigh in. That should scare me enough.............I know though once I am into it it turns into an obsession and I can only really deal with one obsession at a time. I just need to use my time a little better I think...

Right.. enough.... I am making myself sick thinking about this...;-(((
