Well I am here after a nightmare week, managed whilst nailing down floorboards to hit a pipe, discovered leak 4 hrs later. Unable to turn off stop !!!! as the useless kitchen fitter I had, had boarded up the stop !!!!. Too dark to attempt to find the one in the road. Luckily managed to get hold of an ex boyfriend but lives 35 mins away, thankfully he came out. Now all dried out lucky it was sunny, couch outside, wooden floor anyway, just a few holes we made in ceiling to stop it collapsing and a sticking swollen lounge door, just a bit of paint will sort it all out. Phew.
Got just bedrooms carpeted today, so no spend by me work owed me money. Look lovely a bit shag pile ish hehe but make the house warmer in the winter.
Paid a small sum off my cards today at least debt should move in the right direction now. DETERMINED. Not brave enough to cut credit cards up but will not spend anymore.LBM 13039 1.1.13 Now £0 Finally Debt FreeMortgage free Oct 2019:)EFund/savings £25000 10/11/220 -

Thanks abba1772 did not realize how horrid IBS was until I had such a bad episode of it. Thankfully settled down now.
Paid a wee bit off my card 77.60 total now stands at 6598.30.
Feel a bit flat at moment, need to have some fun and enjoy myself this weekend. Stayed in all last weekend, except for dog walks to avoid spending.
So having lunch out today with a great mate who is always bouncy and makes me laugh. Need more friends like him. Off this afternoon hoping weather improves and will get some exercise in.LBM 13039 1.1.13 Now £0 Finally Debt FreeMortgage free Oct 2019:)EFund/savings £25000 10/11/220 -

Cleaned my house yesterday instead of clothes shopping how this board has changed me.
Well Its Friday decided to throw money at these cards before the weekend, played Tilly rounding down game and balance now stands at 6500.00.
Sure I have reached this figure before but this time different, no spending/secret balance on my credit cards.
It's my birthday Sunday so hoping I get some cash, as bought myself a Queen ticket for next year, have hinted in the right direction, Fingers crossed.
Have a great weekend folks xLBM 13039 1.1.13 Now £0 Finally Debt FreeMortgage free Oct 2019:)EFund/savings £25000 10/11/220
