Well done on the payment!

Thanks 😊I started paying my £50 a month today but decided to add £20.77 to tidy up the total but as you can see I messed it up and now have another odd amount 😂 I should have checked their amount matched with mine before I paid. Never mind I will soon whittle that down

Great to hear B is happy with her new food.

And well done on the payment - £60+ is quite an achievement and it looks to have pushed you past the next thousand in repayments!

Thanks Cherry. I am starting my self managed DMP which is at the moment going to be £50 a month. £32.00 comes from the garage rent and I make it up to £50 from my available funds. If I get any extra money that will also go towards debt. I think I will get extra wages this month for working a Sunday so as that isn't accounted for in my budget I will also use that. 

B seems happy with the food and she hasn't thrown it up so fingers crossed it helps

Failed on the washing front as I forgot to bring it in ,hopefully it won't rain overnight or tomorrow until I can rescue it . 
I had a lovely shredding session this afternoon, it was so satisfying shredding all my mortgage statements and the letters telling me my interest rate would be going up .......not anymore 😂

I also cleaned the bathroom and swept the floors downstairs. I've washed the filter from my Henry Hoover today so when that's dry I can change the one that's in there because that needs doing as well. This filter has been on the floor in front of my washing machine for ages but I couldn't face washing it and in the end it took less than 5 minutes to do . 

I don't know why I put off doing these silly little jobs, I would rather move the object around the kitchen all the time instead of just doing it and putting it away. I'm very up and down with my housework at the moment. When I'm in pain I obviously don't want to do much so things get left then I get overwhelmed. I always clean and tidy the kitchen before I sit down in the evening so I come down to a tidy kitchen in the morning and I always either sweep or hoover the floors everyday no matter how I feel but dusting takes a back seat along with the windows and those extra jobs like what washing the hoover filter. I did clean my kitchen window yesterday on the inside but need to do the outside tomorrow if possible.

I also had time to finish reading my latest book which was The Bullet That Missed, as usual it was very good and I was sad to finish it. I've downloaded two books from kindle unlimited today so will start on of those next. I am doing a challenge on Goodreads to read 30 books in a year but I think I've set it much too low as I'm 3 ahead already 😀

Tomorrow I am going to see my Mum and Dad because my sister has gone home so it's safe for me to visit now 😀I'm also having my hair cut which I'm looking forward too. My hair appears to be changing. It's very short anyway but it's getting softer and a bit fluffy, I'm not sure if it's an age thing or an effect of the steroids or the calcium D3 tablets I have to take. My nails have definitely improved since being on the calci D3 tablets I shall be sad when I don't have to take them anymore.

DD popped in on her way home from work to bring back my decorating sheets so I can crack on with mine as soon as I have some spare time. I'm thinking Saturday will be the best day to get going with it because I'm not seeing anyone so will have the whole day to paint

"I don't know why I put off doing these silly little jobs, I would rather move the object around the kitchen all the time instead of just doing it and putting it away."  That's me to a tee.   

Glad B likes the food - perhaps it smells good to dogs.

I always manage to do that   You'll soon sort it out.  Good luck with it!
