  • Not been on for a while but the pennies keep going into the pot :D

    Things r very difficult with money, to the point where we have none at all to live on, which makes every penny into the pot much more important to be able to sort xmas next year out.
    Christmas Crazy :rotfl:

    Love de-cluttering, to the point I don't really own much anymore. :rotfl:

    2014 IS going to be a good year :j

    Good Morning All,

    Have no money to add to the pot yet today, but I am going to have a rummage in the car later as I am sure there is some loose change....I did get some money today as it is my birthday :j but I am not going to add it to the pot (sorry!)

    I am being treated out for tea later by my OH (what a lovely guy, we have only been together nearly 9 months, but he is the best thing that's happened for a very long time ;))

    Anyway back to work, least I have tomorrow off.

    Enjoy your day all :D

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLONDY24 :bdaycake: HAVE A GREAT DAY XX

    5p rescued from a pot shoved in the back of a kitchen cupboard, dont know how long he had been there but he was very dusty and looked quite lonely, so being the good samaritan I am I popped him into the pot to be with the other 5ps who I know will offer him the support he needs to get over the ordeal of being forgotten.

    Miss Lily was a bit perplexed though and did give me a look which plainly said 'wheres the rest of the pennies mummy' but we have to go to the post office again for ebay stuff sold (current total standing at £95! some of which will be fees, some toward the CC and hoping for at least £10 for my pot :D) sohope for a few more clunks this afternoon
