Glad your shoulder is improving. Hope you find your notebook soon!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0

I think I spoke too soon about the shoulder woke up on my back last night went to move and felt something ping :eek: pain started running down arm again.........this is going to take a long time to heal I reckon but got a cold compress on it just now which is reliveing the pain.
Might be able to clear the finance today :eek: hubby got a wee windfall :T so he's gave me it for holiday but I'm tempted to fling it at the finance so I can start prepping for our holiday :cool: will need to rejig the figures and what pennies I have and see what I can do......it would be amazing
Also need to phone tax credits and inform them of hubby's wages now we are in a new financial year as don't want to be paid the wrong amount dues the new financial year but I need to get my accounts in order.......I'm nearly done with them thank goodness just need to put through some more receipts and we are sorted :cool: so that's my plans for today
Working 10am til 6pm today so not too bad I guess hoping shoulder eases up and it's really starting to annoy me xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
Oh wow! Clearing the finance today would be AMAZING! Three weeks to clear one whole chunk of debt? Wowza!
Hope the shoulder eases up. I've got back problems and I always find I'm lulled into a false sense of security with it. Just as I'm thinking 'wow, my back hasn't bothered me in a couple of days', it comes back with a vengeance. It's like it saves up the aches to unleash all at once!Sealed Pot Challenge 075
