I remember a guy saying it in my first ever real job and it stuck from then .. when someone asks who im doing and I say plodding on .. sometimes they look at me like im carzy lol


thanks on the start front, this week and next is going to be a bit quieter as I don't have as much listed but fingers crossed a few things will go ... its weird between ebay square colouring and dave ramsey im becoming obsessed .. suppose theres worse things to be addicted to though lol


my oh came in the other day and I was doing my leslie sanson workout with dave podcast on .. he just laughed x

Thanks BL .. meat to say can I ask if you've any tips on becoming DF as I see from your sig that you've done fab
Nothing for the DBM today but I did get up extra early and worked the car boot sale for my dad ... that's a few ££s into this weekends fund !!!55357;!!!56397;!!!55356;!!!57339; ... I'm taking the guys to my dads bootsale in Cambridgeshire for a weekend away so hopefully today's wage should cover any purchases we make .. they have some fab stuff last time we came back with everything from Marc jacobs boots to a Marshall amp .. good job I have a trusty Volvo estate lol !!!55357;!!!56834;
I'm hoping to get a few more sales on Sunday but didn't remember the bank holiday weekend when I listed but hey ho I'll see how it goes
Another NSD for me today and normally it's my shopping day but with being away I'm going to try to stretch it until we get home .. fingers crossed .. we don't really need anything for while away as my Mam and dad look after us.
Just been up to check on the boys and one is flat out snorting with his guitar over him lol .. I'm a little worried as he seems to be tired loads .. I keep an eye on the electric usage so I know he isn't up playing on pc, I think I'll monitor and take him to the docs if I need to.

So that's me signing off for the day .. up from 5 and just gotten in from Job#2 .. last day at job#1 before the bank holiday weekend tomorrow .. yay !

I just kept chipping away really.
I found the challanges helpful.
Particularily the NSD challange & 1 debt versus 100 days.
Snowballing too.
If I can do it anyone can.
Most things are a need rather than a want.
REmember out of debt is out of danger

Thanks BL .. some wise words of wisdom there hun
I do like the NSD challenge and at the minute im just super focused .. just hoping that it sticks

You can do it

Another £50 off the CC via eBay sales .. whoop !
Mind I did have a bit of a speedy bank holiday weekend as we went to my dads car boot sale .. luckily the wages I made helping paid for some of the things I bought and the difference I already had put to one side .. food wise I packed a few things for me (trying to stick to diet) and my mam and dad sorted the boys and took us out to lunch

I got some amazing bargains .. washing machine is on they will be on the line overnight ready for tomorrow

On a plus I never did the food as usual on Thursday due to us being away meaning this weeks grocery envelope still has the full weeks shop money in and I only need to get enough until Thursday ... I might even try just picking up essentials and seeing how much I can get away with not spending lol

So cracking bank holiday for me (apart from the sunburn) ... hope everyone has had an amazing time .. booo back to work tomorrow lol
