It's amazing how the little spends add up isn't it xx

I think are the month you had you don't want to leave yourself too short, aim for being debt free by the end of March, if you get to being debt free before the it's a bonus but you don't want to make yourself I'll because of it........the end is in sight my lovely xx

I say leave a little leeway - better to get to the end of the month and pay over any extra, that way it's a positive

Total spend was £80!
So need to track better this week.


On track with £10 a day until pay day don't need to spend any excess really


Didn't pick up the shoes so hopeful these will be redelivered - will try and sort that tonight online with the post office


I have got £70 in my travel pot for work - But some of that will go tomorrow on Travel home. ..


I was hoping to be able to pay any excess towards the debts later this month.


Its so cold and windy I don't really want to go out at all tonight.


Flat and wardrobe need an overhaul :-( I'm owed about £150 from work which I cant get back til 1st March by then will be £200!!

Hope you're shoes turn up soon

How are you feeling have you been taking time for yourself xx

I just got a one year badge ;-)

I have sorted Valentines for +1 still stressed about work, debts, health and I know I have to sort this out sooner rather than later.


think maybe with just so much to do don't always know where to start... going to try though, Just exhausted and wish I could be more positive at times.


Need to arrange redelivery
Need to go home and asses weather damage to flat
need to actually take a day or half day off work - so I can do other things.


Need to make an action plan for work so might invest in a new notepad to motivate me to write those lists in a shiny new pad .


Am getting a bit better at looking after me , dyed hair and did a face pack.


Have set aside 3 days at work this week to update jobs but Im not sure if I would be better taking a day off or if I did I would end up working it so its a bit pointless.


Making a list of all my wardrobe - what can be sold and what is to be kept. This is my final phase of my capsule wardrobe. xx
