I've also decided to save a penny a day according to the date, I think that makes about £54 a year. I'm up to 10th of the month (so 10p)(this was an idea from someone earlier in the thread), when I have added that up I will put that in my sig too. Initially I've got loads of copper coins, so that's one way to get rid of them
I think I will join you on this one, it sounds simple to follow Thanks for the idea :T0 -

It's the thought that such decisions have such a huge impact on their lives that scares me and the OH the most!
We're only just getting our head round making the right decisions for ourselves! lol
But, I think you are doing the best thing. Analysing the situation from a family point of view and weighing up your choices. ie, you're making an informed decision. I'm sure it will all work out well
Im sure it will, although im not confident, we always feel that we are making the best decison at the time, then generally it comes back to bite us on the bum!!, It feels like the right thing to do though so there we go!!angelicmary85 wrote: »:eek:

Sarah could you please put me down for £10.00 again please! I paid £75.00 off yesterday's little shopping spree so you can add that if you want...I'm not going to include though but it may help bump up the daily total!

Well, I think that's normal. After all, you can only make a decision based on the information available to you at the time.
Sometimes it doesn't work out, but then you learn lessons from it and are more aware of what you should be checking out/ questions you should be asking for the next time.
I think maybe we all put too much pressure on ourselves to be perfect, when in the end we can only be the best we can be. So long as you are striving for that, then that's the important thing.
It's lovely to hear some parents who care so much. I was lucky with my parents, but I have far too many friends who weren't so lucky. I think that just caring enough to TRY and make the right decision is far better than not caring at all.
God, I sound like an after school special! hahahaha
Hope everyone's having a good day. I'm having a good, busy day but it's dark here already. Booooooo! lol
