Hi everyone
I am feeling a little more positive this week, trying to get on top of everything at work and !!!!!! boss has been nice as pie since last week lol.
Not massive amount to report so far, I only did a 45.00 shop at the weekend so that needs topping up tonight after tea. Managed to get eating back on track and I've lost 3lb since Saturdayhad a patch test for a new salon which I'm booked in for next weekend for my birthday so looking forward to that one xx will update totals soon to reflect s****y spending lately lol xx

Hi Everyone,
Sorry I have been AWOL, as most could predict this hasn't been too positive for my finances.
I am however, back with a vengeance....The only positive being Christmas and both DC birthdays are paid for. This means I can really focus on keeping my spending down, replenishing my savings and working on the CC's again!
Hope everyone is doing well, I am WFH today which is a good thing for me for SW but also money so today will be NSD #1 ( I am Aiming for at least 4 a week)...I have £27.58 in the current account which I am hoping will last the week, the only thing I know I need is catfood (£5ish) and have £20 to go back into my acc from work.
I have completed some prolific surveys today and have just over £5 in there ATM, going to let that build up before I withdraw and I am also going to get sticking some bits on eBay again. I did really well last time, then seemed to lose momentum as my spending went out the window. x
