Thought I'd post the above as the leccy keeps going off.
Sat down and done some financials. It's very squeaky but hopefully we can manage it. There are a few things I want to do next year so need to think up some cash making ideas and be strict on the shopping.
We are hoping to go to Sri Lanka next November as its our 25th wedding anniversary. I'm waiting for some costs to come through, I do know its not going to be cheap. Also need to save up for the party.
I'll have a balance outstanding on my credit card from getting the car. This needs to be moved to 0%. I was hoping to get this paid off in 12 months but think my expectations maybe a little bit high.
Ideally I'd like to go and work for the business full time but I'm still not sure it can sustain me.
Also need to get back on the weight busting wagon. Really want to be a stone lighter by OHs party. Still plenty to go after that but baby steps. Will possibly chart my loss on here.
Hope you have a Happy New Year

Also so forgot to mention that the last guests in the house have damaged a window. We're going up on 13th and having a different window replaced. I'll get the chap to have a look at the damaged one but not hopeful.
Good Wishes to you as well Knitwitch.

Well compared to last year I'm 11lb on top of what I still need to lose. I've really lost my motivation to exercise and need to find it. I've only done a couple of park runs all year and completely stopped doing the exercise dvd I was doing.
This week I want to go swimming, I think for now if I set one goal a week and take it from there.
