Been to the bank this morning to lift out my £200.00 to cover me until next payday.
Going to try to save a bit of it aswell, have a nice big smoosh bottle filling up with coins so gonna keep all that separate and try not to spend any of it!
Wish me luck!

So husband has been paid today, made the payments to the CC and the balance is now..............
£1996.26 :j:j:j
The initial payment I made was leaving me with just over the £2k so I paid an extra £10.00 to bring it to the next bracket :rotfl:
I am so happy I used my savings to pay that chunk off yesterday
Any regret I was feeling is now gone, next month our debt will be in the hundreds - hundreds people not thousands!!!!
Can't wait to start building the deposit savings in February 2018.

Morningggggggggggggg,
So I am in work right now and my office reception has been changed into a hotel reception because they are filming Sherlock down stairs!!!
How cool is that.
Keep peeking out the window to see what they are up to, there are New York taxis everywhere!

Yup it's been mad the last couple of days.
They still have the flags up today so they might not be done but I'm not too sure.

Hey lovelies,
Oh god I am eating for Scotland today, just can't stop myself :mad:
Was up 1lb this morning to 15st 6lbs so of course I just stuffed my face, like that is gonna help.
When will I learn!
On another note I had a surprisingly low spend weekend :money:
Still gonna be a struggle to get through the month cos I did what I always do and spend a fortune the first week of the month then have to live like a pauper for the rest of it
Need to stop that, it's horrid having to scrimp and scrape, I hate it!!!
So December that's not gonna happen!
Haven't made any changes to the debt, will need to wait until next payday for that unless a lotto win comes up!
Got a crockpot ages ago and made an Irish Stew yesterday, was so good! Surprised myself really and DH went up for 2nd helpings :T
Looking for more recipes now, he wants a massaman lamb curry next, he thinks one cooked meal has turned me into Nigella :rotfl:
Hopefully won't poison him!
