    Hi everyone!:hello:

    I hope you're all well.

    I'm trying to catch up with MSE, it's been ages since I was on here. Looks like I might have to sell the house I live in (it's only half mine and I can't afford to buy out the other share) so I've been busy with that. It's a big nuisance but it's probably for the best. Ok I admit it, I was devastated but I'm trying to be philosophical about it!

    I haven't really had much change as I seem to be using my debit card all the time. Now I might get rapped on the knuckles for this but I had to borrow €2 out of the jar but I promise I will put it back! Rosepink, could you put me down for €60 - I'm nearly there and I'm hoping to reach that before the end of June. Then I can start over.

    I hope you're all having a good Monday.
    Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! :)
    Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

    hey nuala, welcome back, we missed you on here :)

    im so sorry to hear about your move. hope you are ok!! *hugs*

    dont worry about the #2, as i see it we are on here to save money so if it were me, i would rather spend a £2 i have saved than to take out a £10 in my bank and end up spending it all!
