    Sounds like you are going great guns on the organisation stakes ... think you should still count all this in the decluttering because you're certainly decluttering your life and getting things sorted. x



    thanks :) I might have abandoned the declutter counting, I sort of got lost along the way with the counting around about the time I started feeling so rough with the headaches - but I am still on the case!
    But, I feel I do work better with a 'project'. Freezer Stash plan was a huge success.
    The Financial Plan I'm working on at the moment is helping declutter.
    and the business plan I'm really loving doing as it seems such a sensible idea :)
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Wow, Watty, you're really taking the romance of "for better, for worse" to heart! :rotfl: Perhaps you could revise the vows to include "off" after better? 2016's just a short hop away now, if you're planning to get down on one knee in light of this new information!



    :rotfl: now there is a good plan! One I might just consider. "for better off" :rotfl:

    MtM day 8/30 Quadruple your mobile data allowance. Err... I don't have a smart phone. Skip that one.
    MtM day 9/30 Check your tax code. Sensible one! But I'm self employed and have a limited company and yes my tax code is wrong but it gets adjusted when I /my accountant does tax return. skip that one.


    Off for a conference in a moment - part work - part fun. Am leaving day 10 for now. Back Monday. See you all then :hello:

    Hey Watty - hope the confernece was good :)

    Waiting for day 10 too :D - guess this is one of those things where some things are applicable and others aren't - i'm like you where much does not apply x But be nice if some savings / earnings can be made :)

    I'm enjoying reading about your adventures in Money to the Masses, even if not all of the steps are applicable.

    Bring on day 10 !:j

    Delayed reaction but :eek: how did I get lumbered with that role, I'm just building up to doing a walk and trot dressage test! :o


    Was day 10 a bit daunting? ;)

    Because Floppy I have you down as a nerves of steel hardened to hounds eventing type :)


    Weekend away disaster. Came down with food poisoning or something of that ilk. Mr Watty had to get train to where I was to rescue me and the car as I spent all Saturday night and Sunday morning being sick. Have been in bed pretty much ever since unable to face food and exhausted.


    On the bright side its cheap as all I can face eating are digestive biscuits!


    Will be back to continue with MtM when feel brighter/better.
