Woo! to the weight loss & the Halifax!
Less woo! (oo?) to OH's grasp of maths.
Still two steps forward, one back, gets you there in the end.0 -
that's the sort of maths i see at work, and they've studied long and hard to tell a debit from a credit!0

You might have to confiscate the cheque book! OH wonders about buyig things and booking things and I have to gently remind him that we are debt busting. He's fine then but it is so easy to get used to buying what you want (within reason) on credit without checking whether you can actually afford it - the times we live in!
Stayed the same at WW this week. If I could get to my goal I would save £20 a month. Even being positive, its a few months away yet.
Very impressed about the Halifax.0 -

Your work sounds like mine. Most of the time it feels like we're not appreciated but then you get one who says thanks and it makes everything worthwhile.

Good to see you sounding so much more positive. Keep it up, genuinely believe that good things will happen and the world is your oyster!
