sorry for not being on lately, been mega busy with work, got some amount of overtime this month and next month which is leaving me very very tired.

Plus i've met someone hes lovely and treats me like a princess, he's bought me flowers every week since i met him and well fingers crossed eh??? lol

budget wise i'm doing ok still in credit and have managed to saved £540 so far this year would have been more but paid for new lino and paid off my tv this year so i'm still chuffed i have that in my savings xx been putting £15 a week away via standing order so it's adding up and nice to have something to fall back on i guess.

spent £20 topping up my fuel £9 in aldi getting bread milk cold meat and milk, spent £13 in tesco getting chips, work trousers, new underwear for DS for xmas and a new vest top for me, signed DD up for street dancing lessons which will cost me £34 a month but it'll defo be worth it xxx

DS is signed up for swimming lessons so that cost me £40.50 for 10 sessions but he can't swim at all bless him so nows the time to get started xx

hope everyone is well xxx

Hey Abba,

all seems to be going well for you and things. I have had changes of circumstances and finances. and really feelin a bit scunnered but trying to scan the net for solution. Keep up good work. I reckon I need to get back into the MSE snowballing and get a grip and keep the grip this time!!

Enjoy the break! and good for you on the last car payment! well jel ! lol.

Take care

abba1772

i know what you mean about the snowballing, i really need to start that again but with xmas now coming up i'm just using the money i'm saving for not paying out on the car for pressies this year but come january i'll be clearing my card before summer next year............just want it gone and its frustrating as it's the lat of my debt except my student loan which i will probably never pay off lol xx
