    Last day of the month for me today, overspent budget by £95.06. Christmas was at least £60 ish of that and one or two horse feed purchases included, so overall - I am pleased.
    The figure will go up a little bit as last two shops at aldi have not gone out yet but are not amounting to more than £20.
    Unexpected vets bill this week amounting to £145.50 but at least she is feeling a but better now, also change in diet for monkey pony as he has diarrhoea and we are trying to control it for him another £40 ish.
    This month we have paid off £3142.31 from the credit cards, very pleased with that. Another £1000 in the account waiting to go but I need to update my full spreadsheet to make sure I am not missing anything and leaving us short.
    Me and DH hoping to get away for a night week after next, much needed and well deserved, will be a last minute cheap deal in this country.
    I have a little but of time off, finish at 3 ish on Tuesday and don't go back till 30th Jan :)
    £250 shopping, diesel and any other spends
    December 16- January 15 £345.06/250.00 -£95.06
    £2 saving a day for christmas 2017 £0/£730
    Total debt paid off before 26 December 2017 £3142.31/14,053.85 = £10911.54 left to go
