I love it when they do that, when I moved back home fudge lived in my mums lounge and the minute we went in the kitchen he would squeak!!

I am meant to be starting the week before I go to Florida so excited!! The extra money is just a plus for me!

First payment to consolidation loan went today, didn't make a huge impact on my total but every little helps.
Payday is 7 days away, I still have £22 in my account, and haven't touched my £300 emergency fund I do need fuel in the car but going to wait till red light comes on, I'm just hoping that is next week.

I have been busy back at the gym, and putting a lot of my spare time into that as I want to look my best for Florida..l it's only 6 weeks away all my spending money for that is sorted.

Still checking the survey sites daily, I got a £10 Amazon voucher from it the other day and a few days later someone hit my wing mirror and cracked the glass, I used some of my Amazon voucher to buy some glass to stick on the top saved me from having to use any of my emergency fund

I have switched my bills account to Halifax now as the give £100 to switch and then £5 per month every month £750 is paid in much better than what I get with my current provider x

Hey Laura, hope your ok, hows your valentines weekend going? Did you agree on what you were doing? We're having one of the supermarket dine in meals!

My friends come back tomorrow, so I'm handing the piggies back. I'm really gonna miss them, they are so tame.

I've been !!!! at the gym lately, I really need to get my mojo back and get my butt into gear. We go away in June, I'd like to lose a stone before then. How long are you going to Florda for?

Hey Maryland cookie lovely to hear from you,

I got spoilt in the end, he turned up with a rose & chocolates and took me for a lovely meal on Saturday. I had a lovely time.

I have been to the gym 2 times a week for the last few weeks, apart from tonight I stayed in to watch the football (I support Man United) not very girly I know but I really enjoy it.

How have you been? X

Hey monz,

Hope your well
I'm still here, I have been reading other diaries and taking notes!

Loads going on, I'm off to florida in a couple of weeks, and it's the last day at my job tomorrow... Feeling a little sad, but have the whole week off after that so I am going to have a massive clear out and hit my debts with it.

I have saved £700 in my emergency fund thinking I may need it as only get paid for 13 days from my current job and unsure when I will be paid from the new one :0

Update time

So I haven't been up to much, have had to be extremely careful with money due to changing jobs, I won't get a full months pay from old job and may have to wait till 26th April to be paid from the new job. I start on Monday!! Eek.

I fly out to Florida on 23rd March and will be away over my birthday I turn 26 on the 26th, I'm not to excited about birthdays anymore.

I am currently on holiday for the rest of the week so have spent time sticking everything I don't need on eBay for more money. I have updated my signature and pretty pleased that I have saved £700 emergency money which is lucky as I will probably need it this month

I go to the gym most evenings now to improve my fitness now I'm not smoking membership is only £16.99 per month with no contract which I think is good, aswell as doing surveys!!

Once I am settled in my job and pay is sorted (April) I am going to chuck the extra I am earning at my loan as it was money I never had before, aswell as still saving for my mortgage & emergency fund. It will be tough but so worth it in the end . I want to be in the best position possible when OH moves down in June so excited!!

Hope everyone is doing well xx
