  • Yeah I know, even I'm tired today. Fell asleep at 6pm, so just hoping he sleep a bit better tonight.

    £3 from Pcone requested and a 75p Y0ug0v survey done, £3.25 to go to payout! Ips0s has been busy as well, so some progress there!

    Can't even think of anything else to write, my head is that worn out.

    Hi DFOD, caught up on your diary, well done on all that debt busting. Hope you start to get a bit more sleep. Those early starts are hard!

  • The car has returned but the garage didn't give us the total, will let us know at the end of the week. I'm nervous!!

    Few bits and pieces we've had to pay out for and I think September will be a naff month for debt busting, I need to pay for a few things and give a few money pots a bit of love of attention!

    Been organised this week and got the dates of when the 0% period ends of each CC, so I know how long I can string that out for.

    Working at home today so hope to get a few more surveys done in between!

  • Pretty quiet day, finished out the coursework I needed to for my qualification I've just finished, so hopefully that is all done now.

    Will give myself the weekend and then it's onto another qualification. My job motivation is totally gone at the moment though, just can't seem to muster the enthusiasm anymore.

    Few and I mean few, surveys done today. Off to collect the littlies soon, then it's tea, bath, book and bed and that's Thursday done!

    Eighth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    No wonder you've no motivation for work when you're being woken at 4am!!! My brother uses one of those night light things that comes on at whatever time you set it so my nephew knows to play in his room until the light comes on. You'd have to gradually change the time though. He can't sit playing for 3 hours. :D

    Sorry about the car - our handbrake is so stiff I have to use 2 hands to move it. Hope the total isn't too high.
