    Thanks everyone, he is negotiating his start date with the company and hopes to hand in his notice on Friday.

    I do feel like a weight has been lifted.

    My NSD's are going okay, I totally forgot to update my target so thanks to Cathybird for the nudge.

    I have potted a few £2 coins recently as well as shrapnel. I am looking forward to counting all that lot up.

    Had my soup again today, I have one more left for tomorrow and planning on making a risotto on Sunday for next week.

    I am very impatient....I really, really want to get rid of the BC but can't (yet!) Roll on pay day, I can then :D :rotfl:

    Afternoon diary,

    DH went back to the doctors today for a blood pressure monitor to be fitted, he has to wear it overnight and hand it back in tomorrow morning.

    DH has a hospital appointment next week for his heart, he should be all clear then (I hope!)

    I had an AFD yesterday, I won't hit my target for this but it is certainly better than in the past.

    This weekend, I will go through the budget and see where we have made a saving with the recent changes.

    I brought my lunch with me every day so far this week, I am determined to hit my target on this one.

    I need to think about my list for this weekend and I really need to sort my goals out for November.

    Afternoon,

    I have written down the budget for the new figures and we are approximately £50 better off.

    As DD has a camp next year that money is going towards it rather than having to 'find' it. We owe £180 remaining on the balance, once that has gone, the £50 will go towards DS's IOW Cadet camp next year.

    DH needs to get in touch with Sky and try to get the bill reduced. I will [STRIKE]nag[/STRIKE] remind him gently that we need to sort it. Plus he needs to sort out his form for the HMRC.

    Amongst other things for the end of the year, I need to think about next year. DS will be 16 :eek: for a start and my mum will 70.

    This weekend I plan to spend as little as possible, we only need a 'top up' and DH gets paid the next weekend too.

    Looking at the overall debt and I will know for sure once the new year starts, I am hoping that 2020 we will at least halve it or more...to be debt free next year 'would' be fantastic but I'd be happy with half.

    Harrumph! Just done some calculations and I can't get rid of the BC this month :( but it will be down to £100, so November payday I can get rid.

    BC account checked and it is £100 more than I thought it was. So I definitely went wrong somewhere along the line.

    Never mind. I pledge that it will be gone by November Payday!!!
