Shout up if you do start a diary, I would happily subscribe given your splendidly positive outlook.

Agree DIA.
Today is child minding day normally but It's DGD first birthday so I am redundant for a while . Going later to help with tea party .
Cheques have cleared from lloyds for packaged bank account . I received £422 .04 .
I am paying £300 off CC2 , then I owe EF a £108 for the night away and afternoon treat for dear friend who helped me get the money.
When I get the money from Northern Rock £312 that will go to EF. I am paying the money off CC 2 today as I feel if money is in current account I could well find something else to spend it on.
I said no clothes until January and I have stuck to this. I may well extend this until Easter.
