Down but not out- further adventures of the 'I want it now' thread

Nichelette

Thanks Maria. I haven't done the sealed pot one because I already clear my purse out and anything that's 20p or less goes into my money boxes. I'm quite good at it but I always cash it up when there's enough for a bag full. Speaking of that there probably is now but I haven't got the energy to sort it out lol.

mariagti

I do too, but have decided sealed pot can have the 10p's to £1 coins and my normal saving boxes can have the coopers and 5p's as they fill up fast.

Ive now joined the make £5 a day challenge!!! lol, Im going to have a go at everything!

jenjade

wow you guys are motervated i might go for £5 a day every day this year that will be £1,825 which would be good for the house deposit fund

mariagti

Go for it Jen! That would be a good lump sum at the end of the year.

Nichelette

That would be good Jen, plus if you're as lucky next year as you have been this year you'll have that money in no time!

Have any of you got any new year resolutions, or is it too early to be thinking about them? I just really want to look after myself better this year. I'm always stressed and running about like a headless chicken, I haven't even died my hair since the end of July so I have enormous roots (though they aren't massively different to my natural colour as the black has faded a lot, well, apart from the greys which are a couple of inches long now and getting really obvious/embarrassing ). My skin isn't great lately because I haven't had time to look after it, and I'm eating rubbish because I don't have time to make home cooked meals. So there we are, I need to try and make time for things and not get so stressed. I'd also like more toned thighs, but I can't have everything lol .

The £365 in £365 days sounds like a good one. I might do that could save up for xmas presents or something next year.

I need to sort my skin out too is awful at the moment. I am going on a diet starting Jan as I am the heaviest I have ever been eek. Better get on the wii fit in a min.

mariagti

I'll join in on that! My skin is always awful, and for the past 5 months ive had a spotty rash on my chest which is now also on my neck in patches and collar bones. I think it may be connected to the folic acid i was taking as i have stopped taking it for 3 weeks now and the rash is starting to go. Ive been meaning to see the doctor about it.

So i will also be cutting out the junk food and try to look after myself, im terrible for eating sweets and chocolate. And because i love sugary sweets so much people from work love buying me them!!! lol, bless them think they just want me fat!

jenjade

i do't know about resolutions i am still feeling a bit low and not motervated enough to set goals yet maybe i will have to do my late this year

mariagti
