Well new diary and new attitude lots of debt ,oh turned down for promotion he will be home soon not looking forward to the fall out from that,house is a mess and the trees have taken over the garden .So whats a ghirl todo .
2014 holds the following
2 weddings
2 hen dos
1 stag do
and anything else that turns up .
One of the things my oh has to do in his job is accounts so I'm starting an old fashioned ledger and off we will go .
For 1 year we will live with what comes in and make sure it is used effeciently to make payments and reduce debt .
I am going to walk every day some where, I'm going to make do and home cook (i've been doing a lot of that lately)
I am going to declutter 1 black bag worth every week starting to get sales on facebook so will plug away at that .
Oh yes and I'm going to clear the trees from my garden so I can see the sun shine again .
