    I am getting there very very slowly! Its dragging on! Really really wanted to be further on than this by now.. but everything is sooo expensive.. I have lowered my sky bill and my AA renewal so that should help me.. and we got a tiny raise at work.. so that might help a little bit. even if its just an extra £5 of the debt each month!

    Also started making jewellery for sale :)
    Me and my mum are crafters and make cards and bits and bobs for sale (and presents) on facebook.. and i attempted a necklace so im hoping at some point it will sell and that can go to more jewellery making bits and some debt payments

    if your in the UK you can check it out...

    Not much to tell :)

    Nearly under the £3000 mark on my CC debt... really really wanted to be under in before May but thats not going to happen unless i seriously earn a lot of money on surveys haha!

    I have been doing the odd bit of ebay selling but not lots..

    Busy day of cleaning, decorating and washing.. with a bit of studying thrown in... love the sun makes you a bit more productive

    Ok...so this month (19th April to 19th May) was an epic failure!!!!!

    I have added to my credit card... lots... luckily £100 that i wil be getting back from work as it was paying for my exam... but the rest is not...

    I brought new dress... no need... i forgot to cancel a subscription to a dating site... and my food shopping had to go on there....

    im so miserable... on the upside my exam is tomorrow and hopefully if i pass no more exams hehehe :)

    laters peeps.. after exams are done for good i seriously need to crack on with the surveys and making things to sell...
