    Morning :hello:

    Yesterday was eventful to say the least and I never got to do my day eight of shred :mad: will make sure I do it tonight I promise ;)

    Ended up at a&e twice last night :eek: once with bob who sliced his hand open at work and after 7 hours it hadn't stopped bleeding so after abbies parents night I took him up there after dropping Abbie off at cadets

    Then whilst sitting in the waiting room I got a message from Abbie saying her hips had seized and she couldn't move :eek: so cue a rush are bob was glued and bandaged up we picked Abbie up from cadets, I dropped bob and the boys off home and took Abbie straight up to a&e where we were there for 3.5hours :eek: they've gave her a X-ray and they've see. Her pelvis /hips area are misaligned but there isn't nothing they can do until her orthopaedic appointment comes through but god knows when it'll come through :eek:

    So I'm sitting here with sleepy eyes but started work at 8am and won't finish til 5.30pm :eek: then I have the food shop to do tonight need to go to b&m and lidl tonight so hoping to have it under £200

    Sent £319.45 towards the Halifax brings me under my target of £2900 so I'm setting another one for the end of the month.......to get to £2500 by the 28th February ;)

    Halifax will be going up though in April as putting the rest of the holiday on it :( but I'll be continuing to plough all spare money into this card until 18th April then I'll set my next target

    Need to do a balance transfer shuffle on my cards as barclaycard 0% finished at the end of the month so need to juggle the money about on the cards but luckily both cards are offering 0% balance transfer deals :T so will get that done today if I can xx
