Monday 4/02/08 What small dfw thing have you done today???

sophiesmum_2

When we start out on the DFW trail we do loads of "big stuff" that makes quite a difference to our situation. These include having our lightbulb moment, cutting up the credit cards and cancelling Sky and the gym.

But once we have done the bigger stuff, we often feel that we are not making the same amount of progress, when in fact the small steps are helping us form good financial habits and helping us get closer everyday to staying in control and becoming debt free.

Examples could be charging your phone up at work instead of at home to save your electricity, hanging the washing out instead of using the tumble dryer or leaving your purse/wallet at home to avoid the risk of spending.

So be proud of those small steps, they really are important.

Today I will;

• Check for clicks
• Check online banking
• Try and have no spend day
• Put some books on Amazon

Have a good day everyone. Hi to any new posters.

Morning everyone :wave:
Today I will:

• cook dinner as per mealplanner
• dry clothes indoors
• review savings accounts - now want to keep that money and do new kitchen PAYG, so to speak, as I've already paid for all the white goods and appliances, now need to pay for the units and labour... so if I can limp along over the next two months with the wreck I have, I should be able to do it and still savings intact
• go over budgets and mealplanners for the month and cut off at least 10% - that will to straight towards kitchen
• apply for Jan travel expenses - also to go straight to kitchen
• set up seperate spreadsheet for kitchen savings from now on

That's it, on a mission now! I hope everyone has a good day!

Up the top (under your log in bit) it says User CP. Click on that, go to Edit Signature... you should be able to then.

Remember 5 lines or less though otherwise it doesnt work!
