The Ultimate Incentive muddles along

Well done on not adding to the credit cards,it sounds like you are in the 'paying off zone' how was the week-end?

You're really smacking that debt in the mouth over there! That's awesome news about keeping off the extra credit card spending too Fingers crossed its an upward trend.

Sorry I went all MIA! Oscar wound up in hospital with Oscar last weekend as he got bronchiolitis But it's just down to a cough now so he's back with my mum!

Finally had our family secret santa swap last night so I can crack on with the present buying and be "done" with Christmas - hopefully by December 1st! Need a trip to the actual shops this week to get things from Lush/Joules but we're actually spending 50% less than normal on gifts for everyone this year so I'm really pleased. Making the majority of things has really helped and (I think??) everything looks nice!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Oh no Cinny, Ben had that when he was little but amazingly he was only in the hospital for about 6 hours. Glad he's out again now.

Christening went well but it's been all consuming for the last week or so. Hoping by tomorrow night to have the house back to it's normal state, today I've had a very floppy Ben on my knee all day, then at about 6pm he was sick everywhere several times and now he's happy as anything.

Taught yoga again this morning....£22.20. Should have been £24 but a child got into a handbag and the resulting chaos meant lost money that was never found.

Covering another yoga class tomorrow night, utterly messed up and forgot it was mums birthday!

Glad Oscar is out of the hospital, poor thing. Is horrible when they are poorly.

That's good the christening went well . Good luck with the to do list.

I am currently sat in the cold waiting for someone to come fix the boiler...nightmare.

Nearly at 2% paid off this month, £15.95 to get there so going to pay that off now for the sake of liking round numbers.

Letter to say an account I closed months ago is £34.86 in credit and to call if I want a cheque sending... so on hold to Amex.

Cinny91

Thanks everyone! Back at the doctors today and he has a burst ear drum and subsequent infection little lad is going through the wars atm. Just let him sleep when we got home from the doctors so only just got him to sleep now. Be better if I didn't have a viral infection myself and was living on more than lucozade!

Amazing going paying off 2% this month :j

Aww hope Oscar and you are feeling better soon Cinny, sounds like a hard time at the moment for you.

Well done on paying off 2% of the debt Dinah, you definitely sound like you're in the zone at the moment.

£29.02 through from my eBay lady for our first sales, not loads but it was just kids clothes and it's 29.02 I might not have had for a long time if I hadn't sent it out.

Having a decorating day. My goal now is to get the kids in the their new rooms as a Christmas present (probably Christmas day rather the heir hand Christmas eve just because new rooms might cause a bit too much excitement and bens first night in a bed may be a bumpy ride (literally))

Hey £29 is the equivalent of a yoga session - but you didn't have to do it - brilliant. New rooms is a great Christmas present (agree re the bed). 2% gone is excellent especially in a month which has been very tough. As always onwards and upwards you are on your way. What is your goal for December another 2%?
