Good thanks. It has been a busy couple of days. £8odd through on prolific and vinted sales cleared so added onto CC. Manic couple of weeks for me with GCSE exams next week, now is the time I am in demand for my time
I've been working 8-8 most days which on the plus side means I am not spending much!
Diet is going good... I have got back on it with regards to recording my food - I find it really makes me think about what I'm eating and more veg means less bloatedness.
Morning of work, then home to sort washing and do some more sewing. I've nearly finished my niece's christmas present, then it'll be onto my sister in laws! Fabric already sortedDebt busting 2022 Total £15842.68 £0 (100% paid since 1/1/22)- DFD: September 1st 2023[/b]

Sounds like you're very busy indeed! All your extra work will pay off when you get the money through
Enjoy your afternoon!

Bit of a nothing day today. Went on a jumble trail and bought a new top for £2. Saw a lovely winter coat which would have been a right bargain if it had fitted😂
£50 from parents friends for using my garage. I said they can use for free but every few months they transfer some money , so £25 on CC and £25 in savings.

It's nice of them to pay you even though you said they could use it for free
I'm not sure what a jumble trail is but £2 for a new top is a good buy!

A jumble trail is just a load of jumble sales set up. A housing estate nearby set up a trail where loads of people were just selling stuff in their front gardens. A bit like a car boot without having to transport stuff!Debt busting 2022 Total £15842.68 £0 (100% paid since 1/1/22)

Morning all,
A nice sunny day today. Starting my sister in law's patchwork quilt today at patchwork... this is spreading my Christmas spending over the year 😄
Not much to report this morning, a bit of me time this morning followed by food shop (unless there is enough in fridge/freezer for another day!) Then working this eve. Plan to only spend on food!Debt busting 2022 Total £15842.68 £0 (100% paid since 1/1/22)- DFD: September 1st 2023[/b]

It's a glorious morning here too, I'm hoping it lasts
Handmade gifts are always wonderful, added benefit of spreading the cost too

Me again, just cashed out £10.77 from prolific... adding straight to CC/loan - I still want to focus on both at the same time just to see numbers changing!
