OK, so the happy fluffy bunny of yesterday is still there, Just feeling more of teh Monty Python kinda fluffy bunny today, you know the one, cute fluffy and distinctly unthreatening from a distance, get near me and i will tear your throat out.. and yes i'm talking to YOU miss rude bovine from the bank i've just spoken to..... And you're from Norwich!!! Cat Fight? Norwegian Blue, 9pm saturday? see you there!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: i'll splash you with my drink or talk endlessly to you about the virtues of customer service and politeness or flick the end of your nose.... not sure which yet...:D
Draw back of doing what i do, you sometimes have to speak to people with absolutely NO interpersonal or helpfullness skills at all....:mad: :rolleyes:
Aaaaaaaaanyway, and breathe P and breathe...:cool:
Well I received the dreaded pay statement from work today showing commissions we're going to be paid on payday, managed to work out a rough amount and initially was a case of :eek: :eek: :eek:
If i receive the amount i'm expecting i would have had about £49 spare at the end of the month, However i then realised i can close my barclays spreadbetting acc on the 24th and they have already agreed on the 24th they will send a cheque out to me for £100 as soon as i close it, so that has helped out somewhat.
But it's looking like another month with no major overpayments which is a
bug ger. and it's looking as though March is going to be exactly the same unless some of my business starts to be offered and able to be claimed.
I still have the £450 with mum and my goal is (as it's a short month) to get through february with no need for that money so if March is totally c r a p then i can get through unscathed. I am Just so worried now about loosing my backup money that each month i am trying harder and harder to not use it, crazy hey.
So more ebay more amazon more everything to come... Waiting for my e-mail from bingosky to come through then will try my luck on that. need to sort my little matched bet out to (will bring a fiver anyhoo, better than a slap in the eye with a wet kipper. Baby steps as Hypno says.) I just want to get to a position again where i have decent surplus money available but unlike the good months last year i don't need it to a) repair and MOT the car b) pay for christmas c) give to OH. It would just be nice to say, ok, £200 off that one then....:rolleyes: got £100 tracking in quidco now so that will help.
NZ may well be out of the window in May unless this picks up a bit, although in the main it will be a freebie, I still need the money to eat and to do some things to, esp as my best buddies coach goes to all the scarey places like bungee jumps.... noooooo way evereverevereverevereverever:eek: but it would be nice to know i could if i wanted to...
You see i was talking to someone the other day and realised that only £3800 of debt is my own. all the rest was "on behalf" of others shall we say...
Last time i went to NZ, I ran up £800 on a credit card. And i don't regret a minute of it, and that is probably the only debt that i don't regret having, However i don't (thankfully) have the option this time and as such need to make sure i can cover some spending money (about £300) in cash....
Bring back the bingo I say!!!!
However 25th February will herald the decent into the £25,000's:T which is something i am incredibly chuffed about!! I think when i came back in June last year i was in the £33k's somewhere, if i can be on track to have knocked 11k off it in the year since June then i will be happy. Right now i'm on track to have reduced it by 10k. not fab but still is the equivalent of paying a 10k loan back in a year...:cool:
SO heres the plan...
More ebay,
More Amazon
Try to actually get hold of some mystery shops to do, keep missing them as they've all been barclays and i am already a barclays customer. dammit.
Quidco my typing fingers off, get back into it and see how much i can earn..
erm.... Hope and pray that business picks up...
Well that is an incredibly long and rambling catch up, for which i apologise...
Have a good day y'all back to work for me followed by a drink with the lovely hypno (not seen her in aaaages, can't wait!!) a quick gym sesh, of to an appointment at 1830, home, pack bags (staying in northampton tomorrow night and getting to enjoy the virtues of a free bar:j , followed by _pale_ the next day!) then a very early night as a very long day ahead of me wednesday.....
Big hugs, lots of love, and if i've bored you to sleep by now.....WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I'm off for a cuppa...:coffee:debt @05/11/11 £12210.63!! slowly chipping away!!:heart2:impossible is nothing.:heart2:0 -

Hi P,
Pheeeeeeeeeew what a post, hope you're OK after talking to that numpty don't you hate people like that. In my job I just get candidates who either don't bother to turn up to appt. or think they know it all already (yeah right that's why I'm qualified and your not matey!) or like yesterday the two rolled into one. Had a go at his manager told her the candidate was wasting my time!
Anyway apart from that I'm fine, been busy decorating the nursery, dd has been painting too ah bless.
Well done with the debt busting even though it's a bit tight at the mo, come on you £25k's0 -

Are you still managing to get any running or exercise done or is it a bad idea with the pregnancy? Do hope you;re ok and really great to hear from you..
