Sorry I haven't updated for such a long time, it's because I have been working hard at my total! The good news is I have paid every single last penny of my debt off!! :j:j:j
The bad news is that this was only possible as I got made redundant
But worse things happen! I can honestly say I've never been happier!!My name is CherryPie and I'm addicted to grocery shopping!!
