Morning my beautiful diary friends
I got the downstairs toilet and the back porch done yesterday. Also made a start on the kitchen.
Sold some more items on eBay.
Also got paid today. Wages were higher than expected due to over time rate and Xmas rate of pay.
I haven't hit my £30 a day target this month but I did make close to £20 a day between wages and selling a few things (most of it extra wages) 🙃 so I'm happy with that. Anything extra is better than nothing. I still have some payments to clear from ebay which will bring me to the £20 a day target
Going to try and get some more stuff done today before Work .June 17 £16,000 debt ~ nov 18 DEBT FREE •June 21 £16,308 debt / july 22 debt free •Original mortgage free date 01/06/2059 current mortgage free date 01/05/20461 -
Morning my beautiful diary friends Hope you are all well.
Walked round the house today kids bedrooms need gutting washing that hasn't been put in the laundry baskets etc feel abit deflated. If my mood was low I would cry rant and not even know where to start but I started tackling it after the school run and I'm determined to have it all stewightened out so i can give the house a real good declutter over the weekend. I've got approx 12 hours till the little ones will be asleep so I need to crack on as I have to pace myself and mobility isn't good so it always takes me ages to do anything. I've pulled oh in to help and once the kids are back they will be pulled in and made to help too ... I'd love to post before and after photos but I'm too imbaressed

On the upside the 4th load of washing has gone in . I do about 2 loads a day minimum I'm sure half of it hasn't been worn but the kids didn't put their clothes away they have been dragged across floors and stood on so it all needs re washing. By Monday night i will have it all done and I will have this house sorted to a decent standard if it kills me 😭
Upside is they all have clean uniform for next week now 🤣June 17 £16,000 debt ~ nov 18 DEBT FREE •June 21 £16,308 debt / july 22 debt free •Original mortgage free date 01/06/2059 current mortgage free date 01/05/20462 -
Ordered ds2 a new bed and a shelving unit he has one of the smallest rooms (bit bigger than a box room) so hoping it will enable us to make better use of the floor space 🙂
Also had the appointment through for ds2s neurodevelopmental assessment 🙌June 17 £16,000 debt ~ nov 18 DEBT FREE •June 21 £16,308 debt / july 22 debt free •Original mortgage free date 01/06/2059 current mortgage free date 01/05/20461 -
Hi mumof3, don't worry about sending son to school in muddy trousers. We used to look after a girl of 11 who would refuse to get dressed every morning. I used to put her into the taxi each day, (she went to a SEN school) in just her underwear and hand the rest of her clothes to the lady that travelled with them.
Your doing great, keep it up, mumtoomany.xxFrugal Living Challenge 2025.1
