Hey Maryland Cookie,

I wandered where you were!
How was Florida? I am going in March!!! eeeeeeek

If it makes you feel better my healthy eating just disappeared after eating some chocolate, I had done well all day!!!

Insanity does seem expensive that was why I was unsure

Have you been before Laura? We stayed on international drive and visited the parks, weather was lovely, really hot and sunny. Still feel jet lagged :0(

I've still got my gym membership, I do try and go 3 times a week, might try and do a bit more, especially as the nights are so dark and horrible, all I do otherwise is watch TV x

Glad you had a lovely time, and the weather was lovely - It has been miserable weather over here!!
I have never been before so not sure what to think? All I know is it is going to cost a lost of money and is going to be 2 busy weeks of the parks! How long was your flight? I have a stop in the middle as it was cheaper that way.

I cancelled my membership but I am starting to regret it because I would use it now, I lost interest in the summer when the weather was nice.

The only advice I can give you is keep saving and take comfy shoes! We walked miles around the parks and spent loads! X

Diary Update:

Things are going really well, I have stopped smoking again... so no more wasting valuable money on buying ciggy's.

I have been paid I have paid £180 to my Barclaycard £220 to my loan (They are not the debts I am specifically tackling at the moment) and I had treated myself a while ago in TK Maxx to some jeans and jumpers which I used my Tesco CC for so that I get clubcard points I have paid off in full which was £70 as I do not want to pay any interest.
I have put aside £200 into my emergency account, if this month goes to plan I will be paying all of that to my OH mum which is the debt I am focusing on at the moment.

I am just about to update my signature
I have been checking in on my survey sites daily to get as many vouchers towards OH's last xmas present as possible. Did a £2 valued opinions survey yesterday which puts me at £10 just need a 50p one to get my second voucher.

Talking of Xmas, I ordered my OH's main present last night... he wanted some costly trainers which full price would be £100 (That is our maximum limit on each other this year) But..... I got some money off doing it through Very catalogue and got them down to £86. I know that is still a lot but me and my mother are going half each as joint present which frees up a little money for a few little things for him.

I have signed up to opinion world..... I saw Monz was having a lot of success on there, but no joy for me yet. I will keep going though.

Im off to update my signature :D

P.s I forgot to mention our mortgage savings fund it up to £2700 now :D £1500 is my money... I am so proud that I have managed to do that as well as continue to pay off chunks of my debt.
