Tiny steps still get you to the end result and I'm sure this will help to keep you focused.

Morning All
Been MIA for a couple of days so tired from work, my manager on holiday so I'm doing her job as well as mine. My brain hurts !!!!.
Yesterday was a no spend - today won't be as taking DH for a Fathers day meal. Already decided that was coming out of treat savings, his suggestion !!! who am I to argue. DD was bouncing on his head at 6am so excited to give him his card xx
so to the figures Bcard -4328.48
PAD - 13.59
TOTAL NOW 4313.23
I would like B'card to be 4300 by the 1st July. A nice even number to start the new payment system off. I'm sure I can find 13.23 before then.
Managed to get another £5 amazon voucher from swagbucks so that is £10 in the xmas present fund. Has managed to get DH to sign up to. Hope to have £50 in my account and whatever DH earns too ready for xmas.
Ohh other news HSBC is officially 0 !!!!!
Don't think any more PAD's till Friday as banks squeaky but black. Though do have a tesco refund of 1.41 on its way from online food shop so that is a possibility.
Ordered from kiddicare sale for DD's birthday - play dough and gruffalo dominoes for 6.98 Half price sale on, so pleased about that, a couple of presents sorted. oh did topcash back for 49p lol xx
I'm hoping Monday will be a NSD as in work for 12hrs.
The two items on Ebay didn't sell but went on auto relist, one of the items more winter but the other Brand new River Island top a bit surprised. 100LITTLE STEPS

Evening all
Totally destroyed after a 12hr day on Monday and it was a NSD
No PAD as waiting till Friday though have claimed 2.71 from topcashback
so when that has cleared that will being winging its way.
The usual washing cleaning ironing and shopping here.
Yummy chilli for tea and chicken curry slung in slow cooker for tomorrow as working another 12hr day.
Spent 2hrs making MIL printer work oh the joys
Not much happening and that is not a bad thing, wishing payday was here.
Nearly forgot have reduced EON DD from 92 down to 70 per month, I'm so pleased about this as having been watching usage. So another 22 pounds to fling towards debt though I'm thinking about stashing £15 in another secret emergency fund and the extra 7 towards debt. Any Thoughts ? Have 700 in emergency fund already.
Hope this finds you all well
Must do some swagbucks xLITTLE STEPS
