What Small Debt Free Wanabee things will you do this week? w/c 15th August

ooitsme

Hi!

I'm new to this thread but it might provide me with motivation I need at the moment! I'm a single mum, self-employed. I'll work out all my debt and pop it on a signature after work.

Constructive things I'm going to do today is minimal as its a busy one, but I'll start off by taking food and water with me to work. If I have time, there is one bit of paperwork I really could do which would be a start towards removing something from my credit file which should not be there!

Enjoying reading all your posts!

Apologies for going AWOL, normal service will be resumed from September as we're off to America tomorrow. Have been keeping the DFW faith and am feeling lighter and brighter than I have in a long time - life feels good.

Catch you all in September, love and best wishes to you all x

Happy hols Ziggy

Morning guys

Welcome ooitsme great thread to get involved in as we are so nice and supportive! Everyone who joins the thread loves it and some of us have been around for years!

Going out today for a birthday picnic at a park just checked the details and food is being provided :T petrol is going to cost about £7 though but seeing as that includes a free lunch think it's a good deal

Need to nip into town and get an action figure bubble bath and a bar of chocolate for the gift also need to pick up gifts for mil, whose birthday it is today as well. Planning to print off a picture of dgd and grab a frame, get a bar of chocolate from hotel chocolate and a bunch of flowers. Hopefully sub £10! Will be going out for dinner tonight....

Today have sent off bank/pers details for temping work starting tomorrow. I overpaid tax back in April so when I get paid for this next week I *should* get £139 back as well as paid for hours worked :T

Have paid for courier service to collect a bike seat purchased on fleabay.

Also to do
Take out things from boot of car before driving miles to the picnic

Other than spends above buy nothing (will be breaking my buy nothing new challenge to get a photo frame just goes to show I need to be much much more organised around birthdays/gifts)

Water veggies later

Ok think that's all I'll have time for. Happy Tuesday everyone :j

Bob Thanks for the new weekly thread.

DNMS Congratulations on your start date, how many days a week will you be working?

Foxgloves Yippee to having your oven cleaned. Ours could do with a good clean, I know this is something we will both ignore if we can.

ooitsme Hello and welcome.

Yesterday ds was invited fishing by a friend. The friend is a few years older and a very experienced fisherman, he is off to college in September so we are rarely going to see him, it was so kind of him to take time out to help ds with fishing as well as supplying all the equipment. Dd went to her regular gym class. Whilst she was there I popped into Morrisons to buy a few bits and stuck to my list as well as getting a £5 voucher.

OH is at home today as I have a course I need to attend this afternoon. As the weather is looking good I'm going to strip our bed and get that washed plus 1 other load.
