That's right - every penny counts!
I'm good, feeling bad for spending too much this weekend but reckon if i'm super good for the rest of the month it'll all balance out. Was nice to spend some time with OH.
I really am so chuffed that you sold the car - what a great start you have made to paying off the debts :T0 -
well done on the car and on ebay. You've had a fantastic week, you must feel great. Time for a cup of tea and choccie digestive to celebrate.:A Let us be grateful to people who make us happy: they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. Marcel Proust :A0
