Do One, Debt!

I think I also need to hold an intervention with myself. Inspired from your post.

Where have you gone. Are you in the pub. How is your intervention going. how are you managing giving up
Smoking. How is everything?

I have not had an intervention with myself...still smoking
Work has been very stressful, and I've had some nice weekends away and out....I have a wedding next weeekend and then summer is over, not many plans in the diary. I am actually sort of quite proud of myself in that although I blew my budget and racked up a bit of a cc debt on Dibs, I actually had enough in different savings and stashes to pay it off in full. My RDF is down to only £220, it was sad to see it go but then again it's money at the end of the day. I was seriously thinking I'd have to put £300 on a new 0% card.
I've also managed to do a bit of "shopping" from my stores of clothes etc. Topped up a few household items like shampoo and conditioner on less that 50% offers.
Money, KonMarie, it's reasonably well run enough for me to manage without going too much downhill if I take my eye off the ball, I guess. As soon as I crack the smoking life will be great!!!!

Well the intervention isn't going very well. Still smoking although a few half attempts to stop. Mega overspending on the wedding recently, and buying clothes, and argh! Today I am making a proper effort to sort myself out. Am about to list some stuff on the bay. I am cooking a decent veg casserole from tea made from stuff that could have ended up being chucked if I didn't use it fast. I am going on my wii.
This is it people, I am to log in here every evening after doing my swaggy and inny. I have no excuse...and if I don't get a grip now I never will.

This post really resonates with me. I hope you can get things sorted. I think you will. And I wish it was easier for us singles. xx

Thanks PSL
Checking in for the day- out to lunch, spent quite a bit. Oh well, had a great time. Got to £20 on inbox and cashed out. 4 items up on the bay, only £8 at opening bid prices, but one already has a bid.

Checking in, missed yesterday as was babysitting and out late. Been out for tea and spent £££s. Looking forward to payday on Fri

Are you single Goingtodoit. I had assumed but maybe I am wrong.

I think going out for something to eat In The evening is perceived as being a luxury if you are in a couple but kind of needed if you are a singleton.

I'm doing lunch out today but would rather avoid it all. Payday soon. xxx

GoingToDoIt

Yes am single and do think it's important to eat out regularly as it is my equivalent of a hobby/night out most of the time. Just checking in. Spent £10 today on a flu jab, a sensible spend I think!!!!
