Hello MIT
Great to see how well things are going x:j0 -
Thanks KP. All going well except that I am so busy that I haven't had time to turn around. July however will be slightly quieter thankfully as I am knackered.
But hey I'm in the £8k's and I am so so thrilled. I'm really getting there. Probably be dead by the end of it :rotfl:. Joking obvi
Not be too long until my holiday and I am really looking forward to it. I did a days overtime and also have my payrise and bonus at end of July so that should cover the rest of my costs so can still keep paying debt off. Earnings will be down a bit this month as I have been getting over £1k every month and will probably only get half of that this month but I'm really not bothered as I really need the break.
One of my clients has bought another massive house. It's over an hour away from here so not feasible to get involved but they have asked me to house sit for a few days and to test drive it with a few friends. Such a hardship :cool: It is in the middle of nowhere and it has 10 bedrooms etc etc etc. Jacuzzi, gym, cinema room blah blah. Surrounded by fantastic Scottish countryside so it will be fab.
Anyway am off to bed so take care all. I'll be back soon xx5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

Nonnie me too. My debt seems almost normal now instead of ridiculous. Just need to keep my motivation up.
Won £25 on lottery this week so I can pay that off but definitely less cash this month. I'll do my best though and get it down as much as I can
My niece and her boyfriend have bought a Wee house so I am buying them their washing machine. We got it ordered tonight so one less job to do
Both kids working tonight. DD is going to T in the park again this weekend so I'll be on standby 'just incase' 😂5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

I loved your diary!! Took me a good few weeks to get through it all - it is like my new favorite book! Need to start on your old diaries soon to get my fix now I've finished!! I don't know what it is, but way you describe things and talk about your job, cow of an old boss, what your kids are up to I just find you hilarious! Especially the things you tell about your son, sounds like mine...he can drive me round the bend at times!! And my daughter isn't far behind him! :rotfl: but if you don't laugh, you'll cry!!
You are doing so well!!! In the £8's now...that kitchen will be getting installed before you know it. The end is in sight!! :j xxxStarting debt £18,675.63 :eek:

PLMBL I only have 1 niece on my side of family and don't really see ex's family so she deserves to be spoiled. They have saved so hard to get on the property ladder so any help I can give then I will.
Reality check God love you reading all my drivel. Glad you enjoyed it. I'm not on nearly as much as I used to be as I am so busy.
Laundry and cleaning a bit quieter but am going to head in on 3 Sundays to normal work and make up difference with that.I need spends for my holiday. Only 6 weeks until I go away. Passport arrived today so hopefully all will be well.Very very hot there just now mind you so I might end up not moving from the air con
I sent the kids a text the other day with some house rules. Was told I was 'ridiculous' by DS but I posted it onto facebook and every Mum on my friends list stole it for their kids. Here it is :rotfl:

Don't leave jackets lying- hang them up
Don't leave bags lying.- put them away
If you drop stuff when in a cupboard/ drawer etc pick it up

Put away hairbrush, hairspray, iron, ironing board etc etc after use
Close cupboard doors
Put dishes in dishwasher but scrape them first so they wash properly
DS do kitchen every night you are in
DD keep washing up to date. And also sort it and split it up instead of just leaving it lying. Full job to be done please
