hayley_jayne's diary to get out of debt in two years!
Comments

Hi hayley_jane, I started reading through your diary (you have the same name as my niece so it caught my eye!) - I'm so so sorry to hear about your horse! I've never had one myself, but I remember how awful it was when we had our last dog put down, they become such a big part of the family!
On a brighter note - massive congratulations on the baby! She was certainly a healthy weight!! Hope both mother and baby are doing well! And well done on still managing to stay focussed on your debt when there's been such a big change in your life!

Thank you
We are both doing well, I am just itching to be able to drive again now. Only 10 days to go *woo hoo*

So sorry to hear about your horse, i kow how much he ment to you. i dont know how you have managed everything with a new baby. i hope you are getting some good nights sleep. we seem to have one or two nights a week where he is awake untill 2 or 3 but normally he will settle ok
we only qualified for the child benifit not tax credits, i set it up to go into my empty isa to save for him. i didnt want to get used to having it.
My main expense right now is nappies, cant believe how many he goes through!DFW NERD NO.656 DEBT FREE 24TH NOVEMBER 2010 TOTAL DEBT AUGUST 2007 £39000MFiT T2 NO.56 WE OWN [STRIKE]25%[/STRIKE] 31.5% OF OUR HOUSE SO FAR!0 -

I also managed to get 93 vintage ladybird books on ebay so that is my challenge sorted for a few days! (until half way through the 27th November).
I also went to ToysRus and bought the baby the 'I love my bear' Graco Travel Cot. It had £20 off so was £79.99 and also bought the matching playmat for half price and some white with pink polka dot storage boxes for her nursery.

I feel quite grumpy this morning. I think I had so many good intentions yesterday and then didn't do half the stuff. Maybe I need to be more realistic as the time seems to vanish with having the baby. I'm in on my own today as OH is at work.

I really need to get a to do list going as well. i cant seem to get anything done. Are you keeping any of DD's first clothes. I have put DS's coming home outfit in his memory box and the reat are sitting on the sofa waiting for something to happen! I dont like the thought of parting with them at the moment.
I will email you back about the diet, as soon as i get on the scales, for some reason i cant find time to stand on them.
Have fun with your to do list, must find time to go make one myselfDFW NERD NO.656 DEBT FREE 24TH NOVEMBER 2010 TOTAL DEBT AUGUST 2007 £39000MFiT T2 NO.56 WE OWN [STRIKE]25%[/STRIKE] 31.5% OF OUR HOUSE SO FAR!0 -
please don't forget about freecycle for baby furniture, people often get rid of big items that are difficult to ebay on there for free.
I take if you are thinking about selling the baby clothes, you aren't going to put them away for another one ?:rolleyes:

Sorry to hear about your horse. My old boy is 30 and I feel we are on borrowed time with him.

I am keeping her going home outfit tooI have filled a big box with baby clothes for charity and the rest I am going to ebay. I am pleased as I often donate to our local Help the Aged and they have just put a bag through the door so I can leave lots of things for them to take without having to trek to the shop myself
