misstara's debt diary 2014

misstara

Been struggling to find the time to update my diary as so busy at work and also have an assessment in a couple of weeks time so have been trying to prepare for that. So I spent £14.25 on food on Monday, Tuesday and yesterday were NSDs.

I start work at 1 today so plan for this morning is to go to the gym and the library. I'm off at the weekend and really looking forward to it

Payslip is through for 2nd job so will get £68.18 tomorrow
- £30 food
- £20 social (meeting the girls for a couple of drinks on Saturday night)
- £18.18 loan

The cheque arrived yesterday so has been banked Have decided to roughly third it and put £100 to savings, £100 to me and OH (to put towards a weekend away in the next few months hopefully) and £119.62 to debt.

Payday today so all payments have been made - now at 75% paid

Just caught up with your diary, well done on the job! You've been so busy working hard, going to the gym etc, I'm not quite sure how you find time to keep track of all of your spending AND log in here everyday, but I'm so pleased it is paying off for you, 75% paid!!! Woo hoo. And nearly 100% with your emergency fund too! You definitely deserve a weekend away with OH to celebrate!

Thanks AleMrsT Definitely feel like I'm on the home stretch now.

A spendy day today - went to the supermarket to do a food shop, £19.23 spent and also spent £32.68 on toiletries (£20 of that was on razor blades for me and OH :eek: so expensive!)

The cheque cleared today so have made my payment to the debt :T

I went to a kettlebells class yesterday, the first one I have gone to this year really enjoyed it so have signed myself up for next week. Yesterday I spent £8.30 on groceries and today £5.40 on a few bits for OH (I'm avoiding him as he has the lurgy) and £33 on tickets to see my friends band in May. The tickets are for three of us though so I'll get some money back at some point.

A NSD today

Payslip through from 2nd job and will get £42.97 tomorrow so £30 for food and the rest to the debt.

Payday so have made my wee payment to the loan - now at 76.4% paid

I've just realised that I won't be able to go to the kettlebells class next week as I need to work later and then the Tuesday after I'm meeting a friend for tea after work so won't be able to go then either. I'll have a look and see if there's any other classes that I can go to instead.

I start work at 10.30 today so having a relaxed morning as I know work is going to be busy today. I've got my assessment on Tuesday so I really need to find some time to do a bit more work for that.

I made a Mother's day card yesterday so need to post that on my way to work. My sister ordered flowers for mum so have transferred over £14 to cover my share.

Not managed to post for a few days, have been busy preparing for my assessment which was today, will find out in a few days if I have passed. The last three days have been NSDs as I haven't done much. Having a relaxing evening and looking forward to a day off tomorrow, got a few bits and bobs planned.

Hope you've passed

Thanks Bob, am hoping I will find out tomorrow.

Had a lovely day off, really don't want to go to work tomorrow - one day off just wasn't enough . I spent £13.50 on travel tickets for heading home next month, looking forward to that. Me and OH went to the cinema this evening so £9.94 spent plus £1 on popcorn from £land to take in with us.
