Well five pounds from ebay, thrown at debts today.

However got car problems now, can't get into my bonnet. Ford Focus use your key to get in. Lock is okay but clasp under bonnet must have gone. Unhelpful guy at Fords,had no one spare to look at it until Friday and told me how to hack into it. - I dont think I would attempt that, be more scared my bonnet would open on the motorway, anyway left with being unable to top up oil and water before journey down south. Good job in AA !!

Will see mechanic friend on my return.

Well back from my mini break just realised how much I switched off from just being away from home.:)
Didn't overspend at all, as it was hot, didn't crave food every 5 minutes, the weird thing when I got home, kept diving into the fridge all the time oops. Enjoyed sainsburys meal deals sat by the river, with lots of fruit, in the sunshine.
Had a lovely time, was a proper groupie and chatted to the band outside after the gig. :cool:
Added 100 to my credit cards but as my 100 payment to barclaycard went out of my bank act today back to square one. Well paid off 5.24 today as well to round things up. :T
Think I will be short in my bank account this month. Need 180 for car tax so may struggle getting all of it together now. Hey ho life is for living, can be too strict on yourself trying to clear these debts.

Horrid being back in work after a few days off, so stuffy in this office.

Total debt today now stands at 6790.70.:j

Freezer and food cupboards full so will last until end of the month.

Sold some blouse today on ebay, not a lot but every penny counts.

Had a lovely weekend, just chilled in garden bbq, watching footie and a few dog walks - cheap and cheerful. Have a red nose and its not comic relief day for another year.:(

Todays moaning

Tired , lots of gardening, painting and dog walking last night, together with a burnt back hardly any sleep.

Today after work be chilling on the couch with scrummy grandson, who apparently hasn't slept either. Peppa Pig time it is.:D

Needed milk today and chocolate (grandson) cough, Also needed suntan lotion lesson learned walking dog past 7pm still catch the sun, windy then as well. Still not sure how to apply it to my back myself should have got a spray one.

No debt progress to report, going to be a tough month. In limbo unless I get another lodger soon. Need to keep some cash back for my car repairs.

Diet I am useless, haven't pigged out all weekend and put on weight. Way I feel now, chocolate would be good.:mad:

Early night and a cool bath planned tonight. Good news even tho I have lots of baths, water garden loads my monthly water bill is going down 2 pounds a month.

Sorry be bright and cheerful tomorrow :j

Well sat in work and viking stationary order arrived with free fudge. Only me here so pigged out - gone is the diet again today and feel ill lol

Walked around town popped into Peacocks dress and a top for 18 pounds oops. Be great for chilling around the garden and house. Desperate for clothes.

Today sorted out my house insurance annual premium 125 got it down to 91 well decided to pay by instalments 95 result and less than eight pounds a month doesn't hurt as much.

Just need to get into my car bonnet, going to need oil and water, now at a cost and sort out car tax - life is all about money.

Well need to pay friend for Nik Kershaw tickets( holds head in shame) rock chick image shattered.

Sun is hot and home in 35 minutes woo hoo.

Well would be on the naughty shelf if there is one here.:eek:

Yesterday was feeling very weepy, stressing out over car repair costs, family illness, no lodger after next week. all in all overtired, not sleeping well, hating work, hayfever driving me nuts - no excuse but decided I needed underwear, some nice hair products. Total damage with a cute skirt thrown into the mix 66 pounds oops. Still cheaper than the hairdressers.

Blip over. Hair looks so curly and bouncy now. New bra makes a difference but we won't go into that.:rotfl:

Added the yrs car tax 180 onto my cards as well, managed to pay some off today net increase 140.42, including shopping trip 66.00

On track now and car sorted just owe mechanic a drink.

Cheap weekend planned, plus weather looking fab. 1 hour left of paper shuffling and no second job to do tonight. So big clean of my house, sprawl in the garden and work on my tan, then cheer on Italy :beer:

Todays Total debt 6931.12 - Its not good and not clever but hey ho I feel lot better just bit guilty tho.

Calling14

Oh well debt seems to be growing had to put in petrol yesterday again as boyfriends car wasn't working, so drove to his.
Was treated to lunch yesterday as I did all driving.:j

Spent 7 pounds going to a kids theme park on Saturday spent about 7 hrs there so good value for money, took a picnic. Grandson loved it, perfect day out for 3yr old.

Today have a possible lodger viewing at 5pm, don't know any details about the person at all. Not sure even what sex by the name. Oh well will interrogate fully later. :eek:

Existing lodger leaves next weekend, would be so nice to have house to myself but then what is the use when I would be broke?

Will update credit card totals tomorrow as can't find petrol receipt think it maybe in my car.

So tired today, got heaps of work to do, need to make a list as getting no where fast. Oh well its only Monday.:)

Hope lodger is ok.

Lodger was a no show. Wants to call Saturday, but to be honest think my friend had the same one to view his room. Wanted wife and child to stay as well in one double bed !!!. Busy Saturday anyway.

Yesterday got dog walking mate to sharpen my lawn mower blade so saved buying a new one.

Managed not to spend any pennies yesterday. Today Grandson after work, he is usually so tired we stay in and he dozes on couch so purse staying zipped up today.

Pollen driving me nuts, hopefully levels supposed to drop tomorrow.

Have a good day folks

beanielou

Best off without a lodger like that :eek:
