Tomorrow is the day

October 23rd, 2006 at 10:49 pm

I'm opening up a savings account tomorrow for my challenge money. I'm meeting my boyfriend after he finishes work so I will go to the building society before I meet him. My money has been in my room for ages so it's about time I put it into a savings account.

On Friday I am going to phone to try and get another driving instructor. I don't have any money until Friday otherwise I would phone before then.

My boyfriend owes me money. When he repays me it's going straight into my challenge account, along with all of the other money I have to add.

I haven't started Christmas shopping yet. Although I have been looking at gifts online to see if they are cheaper.

Desperately seeking a new job

October 19th, 2006 at 07:42 pm

I was working the other day when a girl who I have worked with for years handed in her notice. She's still going to work in customer service, but at least it's another job.

My job is annoying me right now. I don't know if it's because I've been searching for another job for months, or because I'm not happy with the pay... People are leaving all the time. I don't like my hours either. I'm never usually like this, I'm just in one of those moods.

I suppose I should be happy that I have a job.

I applied for some jobs last night so hopefully a new job will come along soon.

It's worth it in the long run

I've been on the internet looking for a new driving instructor. I think I will book a block of lessons and hopefully book a test after that. My theory expires next year so I have to pass before then. So, I am sticking with driving lessons.

I may have just quit another habit

I quit my driving lessons today. I'm not getting the hang of it and it feels like it's a waste of money and time. I told my instructor. He thinks I should get back to him at the weekend and think about it more.

still adding money

Well my challenge total is increasing very slowly, but the important thing is that I'm adding more to it. I have £3.20 to add to it. This is savings from shopping and money from walking my dog.

Previous total: £90.90
Added: £3.20
New total: £94.10

As far as my spending is concerned I have paid some bills and spent money getting to work. Taking my lunch to work all weekend. I have to help my mum buy a fence for our garden, hopefully it won't be too much.

I really should have...

A while ago I decided to quit a habit and add the money that I saved to my challenge money - I haven't done that yet.

I came back with money from my holiday which I said I would add to my challenge money - I haven't done that yet.

I decided to open a savings account for my challenge money - I haven't done that yet.

This month I am going to do all of these things.

£3 to add

I saved £3 today so I added that to my challenge.

New total: £90.90

more money

October 2nd, 2006 at 04:11 pm

I just walked my dog so I have £1 to add.

Old total: £86.90
Added £1.00
New total: £87.90

I bought some things today and made some savings. I will add that once I total how much I have saved.
