    Okay - back on track! I sorted out some more (small) money saving, DrDragon just made another over payment on the mortgage (we aim to pay this off as soon as we possibly can!)

    I am spending a little bit on me though as once a week I am going for acupuncture (shall we say money well spent! I managed to do some cleaning over the weekend!):rotfl:

    wellll - not brilliant to tell you the truth! I cannot do any "heavy" cleaning because of my disability so vacuuming etc are out of the window! I can do clearing though so I have been concentrating on clearing the hot spots, making sure clothes are away/in the linen basket etc and it is getting there!

    I have been wondering about cutting up my CC so that I don't use it!

    I haven't got the number jotted down! I think I may just put it in the filing cabinet out of the way though.

    Doing your housework :rolleyes: dream on! :D

    The rotten swines sent me a new CC!!! :eek: - but another no spend day for me today (and yesterday!)

    I had a bit of a shock on Monday - for the first time EVER my blood pressure was up - so I need to really cut down on salt (I have very little in any case), so that is no more crisps at the weekends AND I need to cut down on the alcohol as well - so that is going to save me money as well (cider is now £3 a pint :mad:), so if I am going to the pub for lunch I need to get the money out and that is it!

    I aim to have as many no spend days as possible and to salt (:rotfl:) that money away to pay off the CC - no spend days will also help me lose weight, so it has to be a win win situation! I need to pay the CC off because if I do AND I lose the weight then I will have some money for new clothes :j
