hi all
i haven't been on for like a week - i sold my car, still don't have another one, so every minute I'm on the laptop I've been scouring ebay for car!
Shadydaz, youve quit smoking!!!??? Amazing well done you!
I've been on a wedding craze last few days, got the flowers and cake sorted, so the suits are next before the dresses come in. I thought I'd been so calm about the whole thing, just enjoying in, but I've now had two bad dreams about it - one that my dress was wrong and one that I didn't get my nails done in time (serious stuff), but I'm thinking that I must be stressed subconsously!

Yep, More to do with my mum having a stroke last Tuesday than trying o save money. She is in Belfast and I am stuck in england at the moment. She is ok but needs to take it easy.

See now I feel rubbish because so many of you are doing so much better than me, even with lower salaries and higher commitments! Well done all, you really are inspirations.
So I will slog through until pay day on Friday, but there wont be much left in the kitty to put towards my total - stupid January with its long wait! £700 of my paycheck will go out in a DD to the debt fund, but after that I dont know what more I'll be able to put away in Feb.
