Forgive me DFW world for I have spent pennies I dont really have. I have just bought some 3/4 length jeans, I ripped my only pair yesterday and need some more down the yard. I have only spent £20 so not as bad as could be. Knowing my luck they wont fit and will have to return but fingers crossed they work ok
I was good and went thro quidco so if they do fit I should get some cashback.

Good morning, tfi friday
Cashback tracked so thats a good start on purchase, only 68p but all helps, lets just hope they fit now!
So random news last night which may affect me, I dont know yet, Ex got engaged to his new OH. They have only been together a month. I think its a bit too soon, she doesnt really know him yet, I am not going to diss him but there are things she maybe know about, like his debt (far too much and way outstrips mine). One of the reasons we split was I was always trying to pay debt and he was always buying new things, got so fed up in the endI know I am to blame for some of my debt but it could have been better, but here I am and dealing with it now so at least I have learnt my lesson
I dont know how this engagement, poss wedding will affect me, obviously ex is still on the mortgage and I dont want to sell, but at the same time cant afford to buy him out yet, its all questions and things running round my head. Just so many things to think about. Just have to wait and see. I dont want to go barging to ex and demand answers as want to be in a better financial position first, dont want to rock the boat per se. Just need to keep an eye on the situation and watch this space.
Good weekend planned, got friends birthday party on saturday, need to take food but that is already in freezer so good to catch up on bits. Staying at OH's parents. Be minimum spending need to get fence paint to finally finish my fence but should be under £20Debt 13-1-25 - £39K!!!
