misstara's debt diary 2018

Didn't go to the gym as wasn't feeling great. Got blood tests next week so will see if they show up anything as I haven't been feeling 100% for a while. Nothing to report today except a NSD

On a late shift so will get a post in much earlier than usual. A spendy day so far, I've rejigged the budget and paid the electricity bill (used £30 from the emergency fund for this), bought travel tickets for going to Glasgow at the end of the month, bought OH's big Christmas present (it has temporarily gone on the credit card just until I contact the credit union and get the savings out) and also been to the supermarket where I spent £4.75 on cloths, wipes and air freshener for the car and £7.73 on a few bits.

I've been out in the garden clearing the leaves, my plan for the rest of the morning is to organise paperwork and give the flat a quick tidy before work.

Oops haven't posted for a week been a busy stressful one at work, still not feeling great physically, mood has been quite low and I've had a horrible cold so not the greatest week. Feeling a bit better now so will try to get back in the habit of posting daily.

I'll get £107.81 tomorrow from 2nd job which will pay for the room in Edinburgh next weekend plus the petrol to get there. I've got a shift booked on Saturday which should cover food plus we're going to count up all the coppers we've been saving and that should hopefully pay for some treats at the Christmas market . Really looking forward to getting away.

Spent this week feeling horrendous again but I think that's the lurgy finally over . We're off to Edinburgh tomorrow and then after that I really need to knuckle down to getting Christmas organised and paying off debt
