I'm Back!

Hi All,

I have been away for about a month or so (maybe longer) and feeling a little bit silly. I have just moved into a new house and keep wasting money on stupid things. I'm not even making my lunches anymore so buying lunch at work!

So I am going to be better at this and actually join back in with the challenges and get myself sorted. From what I can tell I haven't actually added to my debt but I don't think it has gone down much either :mad:

I'll work out a proper SOA when I get home tonight. I'm just really annoyed at myself at the minute!

    :hello:

    Dont be annoyed. I had a slip up not so long ago, and nearly added £6K to my debt by getting a car on finance! :eek: I did stop myself but still... anyway, you havent added to your debt which is a good thing.

    Welcome back! :D
    Debt: just my mortgage :D

    Thanks both, I guess I just feel silly rather than anything, I know I am wasting money away but I don't stop myself!

    So whats been going on around here then? Any good new challenges?

    I know exactly how you feel.

    Not sure about new challenges, but the Make £10 a day in May one has just started, might be a good one to try and get stuck into?
