INOD - look like you are doing really well. I read your diary regularly so just thought I'd show my face
. Good luck.

Hi mfm green redeem.co.uk it's all one word, damn you autocorrect. Sign up ASAP as this is the last month m&s vouchers can be claimed and you should manage £5 off a £25 food spend for 100 points or £5 of a £35 non food spend for 90 points. These points should be easily earned in under ten mins.Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

Thanks people for visiting and I hope you got the necessary cure for insomnia rachie. I've been on and reading but not doing much posting. Money seems to have evaporated this week without any purchases though I did pay £20 cash for something that would normally go on the credit cards and had £5 to go to the work lottery fund. Am about to fire up the desktop and do transfers to the mortgage etc and update my sig. I go on holiday next Sunday and have so much to do. Also, it would appear my freezer is on its way out. DD will be here while we are away so I'm hoping that will lead to its standard reduction in content before we need to buy a replacement on our return. I can't do a run up to Christmas without being confident about my freezer.Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

Hi INOD
I've been absent myself but always pop in to catch up. Hope you're okay, great to have a holiday to look forward too. Last year we had a hols that didn't touch the credit card for first time ever. But one day I want a holiday where we also have zero credit card balances, and that will truly be a relaxing hols.
Have a great one.

i am such a muppet. good job this site is here or I wouldn't have felt guilty about not having done the transfer and then wouldn't have noticed that I forgot to pay my credit card this month! hopefully the money will transfer on time as it's due in on Tuesday. It will however mean another TT due tomorrowMortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

Today I woke up feeling dog rough. OH has had a cold all week and I think he generously shared a bit. So far, I have done nothing but get on the wii for the not so weekly weigh in. Am back down to 14st 6lbs. Really must remember to weigh in Saturday morning this week before heading off at ridiculous o'clock next Sunday morning. I've updated the goals for 2014 thread and that's probably been the height of my productivity. Did manage to get what was probably well needed sleep so will hopefully be firing on all cylinders tomorrow as I've shed loads to get done. Today I am grateful for
A reassuring phone call from one of my sisters

Having enough food and fuel - it's when you feel rough that you can really appreciate the basics

Feeling heaps better this morning. Have so much to do pre Friday in work and pre Sunday at home. Determined to be relatively unstressed when heading off particularly as I anticipate being 10 days without internet. Right, gotta go. Key tasks for today, sort out currency and stock take of drugs in case any expire while I'm away.Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.
