First stop the scales... :eek: ouch.. back where I started from earlier in the year.. no surprise as I have done nothing since being ill back at the end of September.... So 10.13... goal weight is 10..... watch it pesky lbs.. I'm coming for you.....!!
So today...
Sort paperwork for visits ready to start running around this week..
30 minutes on Treadmill...
Get surveying... need to revive some old survey sites and do the one's that keep sending me emails...
Go to supermarket and only buy what is on list...!
Update online spending diary.
Order online christmas stuff that I know we want..
Bubble Bath and early night so tomorrow I am full of beans.. should have done this last night.. durr...
Right that will do for starters..

Ok, lots of tapping away on the computer but no money made bar 10p from one poll....
Have signed up with a few new (to me) survey sites and been onto all my old ones, have some points already in some so will concentrate on those and see if I can get my Christmas 2015 voucher savings started..!
Done meter readings now £241 in credit so all happy
Paperwork ready for running tomorrow..!
Been to supermarket and only bought 2 items on list.. but forgot to get milk... ummm.. may have to pop round the corner for that one..
Updated spending diary.. horrendous overspending on groceries during October.. dd was responsible for quite a bit of that.. should be okay this month and no school hols where we were both home and feeding vistors..
Not done online ordering will leave that until nearer the weekend I think.. and treadmill is ready for me in about an hour...! Right dd has just got home so time to get her sorted, ring work and go get some milk...

Hi Puzzcat,
Brilliant start to November. You are sooo organised. :T
Hope you got on ok on the treadmill last night and works going ok today.
I really need to get my meal plan sorted out, haven't done it yet as couldn't afford to do the food shop till today and not sure if I will have time. So thus I have no clue what to do for dinner tonight.
Annoyed as when I get disorganised that is when we end up at the takeaway :mad:.
Keep going girl, you are doing great xxx0 -
Well done on hitting 10% of debts paid! Nothing like seeing those figures go down, or the percentages go up whichever way you look at it!Feb 2014 to now
Unsecured debt at highest £56,511/now £9,328 83% paid.
Mortgage £85,342/now £28,846 66% paid
2018 overpayment total - £5,500
Mortgage and debt free by August 20200 -
Hi HB and SS, lovely to have some visitors!
Yes thanks treadmill did its stuff and 30 minutes walking achieved.. think I will give it a week or so until I start running, poor body is so unfit it needs to be built up slowly me thinks...!!!
Will hope to get on it again tonight depending on dd's plans and mum's taxi being used....!
Nothing exciting to report today, morning in the office and off out shortly to do some visits..

No treadmill last night as mum's cab was put to use and then I was too lazy to bother.. now that won't get me slim will it..!! will aim to do better tonight after dropping dd at work and before cooking dinner..!
Spendy day.. got new windscreen wipers, my old one's were knackered and it was getting dangerous driving in the rain..!! Also started christmas shopping....!!! But as there is a budget for that it has to be done sometime..!! Will aim to go to town on sunday and get a proper head start on it...
I also need to order flea stuff for my moggies as they are a few weeks late now.. and travel insurance for the next year to cover both dd and I... maybe I should take the money for the windscreen wipers from the car fund rather than my normal account.... Also need to do my mileage claim for October....
Think that's about it.. have a social at the weekend, gathering of people round a friends for fireworks/jacket spuds and chilli I suspect as that is normally on the menu, and very nice it is too.. will decide nearer the time if driving or cab or bit of both.. its only a couple of miles away so not tooooo expensive...
