    The May total is the £300 or so overpayments :o - but I am still very pleased with it - and it is not the end of the month yet. Am going to carry on trying to average £10 a day until then.

    Basically I am throwing all the money that comes into my bank account (which knocks the O/D down - then at end of month I am going to pay at least that amount off the cards. The O/D is cheap credit but I want to knock it down a bit too as I hate seeing our pay disappear as soon as it hits the account.

    I am hoping by the end of the month I can overpay the cards by £600. Fingers crossed.

    Yes - did just that Hypno - but now in bed (with laptop :rolleyes:) as have a bit of a headache. Bashed my head on a fence post earlier (don't ask!) and have been sore ever since (don't worry - no dizziness, pupils fine, no nausea - just a bump and a headache!). So am getting an early night. Work will have to wait till tomorrow.

    Talk to you all tomorrow. G'night.

    Still have a bit of a headache but nothing major so am ploughing on. Doing the list thing is a good incentive for me (though probably not the most scintilating reading for everyone else! sorry about that :o) so here is today's plan. Seeing as how it is a work day will have to prioritise those work things I didn't get done over the weekend. On top of these I have a meeting for 3 hours over lunch and training club tonight.
    • Invoices (work)
    • Review submission (work)
    • Case study (work)
    • Print more flyers for workshop
    • Check paddypower thing and do WR
    • [STRIKE]Pay bills[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Sweep kitchen[/STRIKE] (sorry Amp. - with 3 hairy dogs the "glance" approach doesn't hack it - have tried it and end up wading through tumbleweeds of dog hair! :eek:)
    • [STRIKE]Washing load[/STRIKE]
    • Create monthly budget spreadsheet
    Think this might be doable! :)
