My road to being a millionaire - I wish

Lokks like everyone is coming clean about who has been asked onto Martin's show so I might as well fess up. I was e-mailed last week about it but it seems that everyone else has had a call from the researchers and I haven't yet
. Never mind if I take part then fab, if not then nothing lost. I had said I didnt really want to out myself on national television so maybe thats what they wanted me to do. Maybe I should just do it and Martin could help me get debt free quicker. :eek: maybe they actually wanted me to have Martin's DFW babies. I did offer at one point. ( had the op Martin so no can do )
.
I need to get my act together and start making packed lunches again as I am spending loads on lunches. £7.11 today. Bloody hell. Right defo making them the rest of the week or I will have no food budget left to buy goodies. x5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

hi there. Sophiesmum do not be fooled that was a rare occasion. Usually I treat him with the contempt he deserves but for DS's sake I stomached his company. Dont you just wonder why you ever got married to these guys?? or is that just me
Hi tifn. Cake huh?? Well I took a tin of Quality street into work today just because I fancied a chocolate. If I end up on Martin's programme you will see just how many chocs I have eaten :rotfl: .
Bought some cards and a couple of gifts today and still taking money for lunches instead of sandwiches:mad: . I really am the laziest git. So long as I have not added to my debt before Christmas then I will go for it after Christmas with all guns blazing. x5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

Jeez I wish I had shares in the post office. I posted a parcel within the UK today and it cost me £11.80.:eek: . I really must remember to think about what I am buying when I need to post it. On top of that I didnt spend much. Gave kids lunch money and had a chippy tea but all included in budget. Had a chippy tea as I was busy cleaning.
My DS's room is a health hazard. He is now on a plug ban and I am well angry with him. He had food hidden in his cupboards and everything. All cleared up now though. 3 black bin bags of rubbish though. Went to the school nativity today. Thats always good for a laugh. Next year will be my last one as DS will be moving onto high school.Whacked now and think I wil have an early night. x5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

Evening
I had a good day today. We had a rebuild this year in our office and we had lost our Christmas decorations when the builders were in. On our floor we collected £60 to get some new ones. One of the girls was going and asked me to go too. Anything to get out of work for a wee while. She wanted to go to B&Q for the deccy's and I scornfully said 'pah!! No we will go to poundland my girly'. I love B&Q's decs I mean they are gorgeous but we would have been lucky to get half a dozen bits and pieces. Well we went to poundland and got 4 Christmas trees, Baubles, Tiny crackers, Roof decorations, 10 wreaths and 10other green bits of whatever. Paid £50
. Got tinsel in Dunnes and we got back to work with change !! Bloody marvellous I say lol. And looks great to be honest.
Spent a wee bit again today. Cant wait until after Christmas so this stops as I am not even enjoying doing it. Bought more little pressies ( kids get loads of pressies from neighbours etc) and kids both had things on at school so was nearly another tenner for that. £40 for petrol as well and lunch money for us all. I dont know about everyone else but I am always hungry after eating junk whereas if I take soup or smething in with me I'm fine. Oh well I will be a good girly soon. x5 Year plan.

> MIT crawls out from the alcoholic haze she has been wallowing in all day _pale_.
What a night though !!! Went to Jongleurs in Glasgow with a crowd of friends and I am still sore from laughing. The comedians were all fab and hilariously funny. Atmosphere was electric and the crowd were really well mixed with everyone up for a right good time. Started off in mine about 3pm and then returned here at 1.30am to watch the x-factor and oor wee Leon won.
MSE wise I have been cr*p. The night out had all been paid for because we save on a monthly basis for it and I even had £15 change. Went yesterday though and bought 2 tops ( in sale mind you) and a new jacket for me for my Christmas pressie to me. Could I afford it? Did I pay cash? Did I hell !!!. Looked good though lol and that'll be the last for a long long time.
Got a hair cut too so that should do me for a couple of months. Hope everyone is doing well but also having some fun xx5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
