    So Boom ... another £600 paid to my STF today .. whoop !!!! And I've got a couple of eBay bits finishing tonight and tomorrow so fingers crossed ... ;)

    I did manage two workouts this morning and it's the first time use of my new washing line .. simple things and all that lol

    I have dinner all prepped as I'm at Job #2 tonight and hopefully there will be loads to package when I get home ;)

    I didnt manage a NSD today but needed the pegs for my new washing line and as that has cost £0 I'm sure I can stretch to £2.40 for loads of pegs :)

    Have a fab day guys

    Last nights sales have all paid up and it's another £100 into STF ... with an extra £20 in PayPal to add to tonight's sales ... honestly if it isn't nailed down it's listed lol ;)
    I have £300 left until the STF is paid and can't wait ... I would love to do that by the end of next week .. fingers crossed :)
    A few things have bids on which are finishing tonight and Sunday ... it's funny how addictive ebay can be lol oooooo bids are popping up as I type .. come on ... I need £300 eeeeeeee geet excited (hangs head in shame lol)

    So on the other front things are all ticking along nicely ... I went to the shops today fully loaded with my weekly cash and came back with change .. I have started the clip system in my purse .. I use the binder style clips (I think they are called that) they are colour coded one is food, one is my fund, one is petrol .. all other cash is in the envelopes at home ready for the week I need them. I have to say CASH IS KING .. it's sooo much easier to budget and I'm not worried about having any unexpected bills or big lots needing to go out.

    Boys are due in any time .. one has extra maths class tonight as he is doing the further maths papers next year and stays back. Just going to make dinner and it's ham and cheese omelettes for them and I have some meatballs that I have cooked for after work tonight which should last for a few meals ;)

    Oooo while I think my mams neighbour came the other day with 10kg of chicken breasts for £16 but they were frozen .. I bought them and put them in the freezer but need to figure out how to break them up ?? He has a meat company and regularly asks if they want anything ... I use loads of chicken so win win ... if I can ever get it broken up lol

    So I think that's it for now .. fingers crossed for eBay tonight ...

    A couple of late payers and just made a transfers over to STF ... only £100 left to go .... I really really want to try to get this over the weekend ;)
    I'm so chuffed with how I'm doing :)
    I feel so much more organised with my envelopes clips and sinking funds ... gotta say Mr D Ramsey is my fave person ... he's a bit like a guilty secret though as I haven't told anyone about the debt so can't have him blasting away all the time - well in public in anyway ;)

    So what can I do to make £100 this weekend ??
