My journey to a debt free life

Don't worry too much about the rules, they are pretty much the same as they have always been.  It doesn't happen often on DFW & MFW but some parts of the forum can turn a bit nasty, which leads to people reporting posts, sometimes for nothing.  In my previous persona (which I lost the login for) I was reported & warned (6 months after the fact) for telling someone it wouldn't be a good idea to do something because it was illegal!  So go figure!  They are just trying to avoid dealing with complaints.  That is why discussion time which used to be right at the bottom of the forums has been stopped for a year & I think has now completely disappeared.

Loving the money saving of doing your own decorating. Must have saved you a fair amount. 

It went very dark here so I didn’t do the outsidey jobs I’d half planned to do……it blew over. So annoying when it can’t decide what to do.  We need a thunder storm to clear the air 🤞

I was hoping for a storm too, OBL. It's quite dull today & cooler, but I'm glad that the garden has had some rain as it is badly needed.

It's chucking it down here and looks fairly ominous so I'm hoping we might get one tonight 😀

I used to visit DT and The Arms so know what you mean, they have got rid of both permanently apparently 🙁

It will have saved me loads of money,I will need to get someone in to do over the stairs I think, I will have a look myself first but I don't think I've got the balance to do it now 🙀

We got someone in to do over the stairs, far too dangerous for me 🙀

Yesterday was a NSD mainly because I was at work 😀 it was a nice shift and quite a relaxed day

Today has not been a NSD because I met my mum for lunch and had some bits to buy. My mum gave me some money to treat myself so I bought myself a new backpack style handbag that looks like brown leather but is in fact vegan, it's from  Accessorize  I have a normal shoulder bag but it's hurting my shoulder so I thought a backpack style handbag would be better, there's plenty of room in it and a handy zipped pocket inside, they had it in the shop but I wanted a brown one and they only had black so I came home and ordered it online. I've had it delivered to the store so that was free and I just have to go and pick it up, there was also 30% off online 🎉🎉

I also bought some new undies because I needed some,I'm ok for everything else though so shouldn't be needing to buy anything clothes wise for a while

Im working tomorrow so will be off early in the morning,I have Monday off and the plan is to get on with the painting 

Money saving things
Dried two loads of washing on the line and got it in just before it chucked it down 🎉🎉
Taking my own food to work tomorrow (pasta bake, fruit, yogurt )

I spotted those fluffy rollers in Wilko yesterday so will definitely purchase when I paint the kitchen 👍

Well done on all the painting. Like me back in Jan! I am starting the boys room today (once I have kicked him out of bed).

Been a bit lax catching up lately, the forum change really threw me too.
