    Each debt paid off brings you closer to being able to save for a treat hun, maybe you should have another sheet at the side of the debt and mark down the same amount - it will gradually build up and will show you how you can save for a great treat/holiday when all this is behind you
    Must use my stash up!

    Afternoon Helen, hope you have had a nice refreshing sleep and are raring to go for the afternoon session!

    We are being v. lazy in our house. Haven't left the house today yet, but the children seem happy taking items from the re-cycling box and making 'stuff' with sticky tape.... who says you need money to entertain kids! They are preparing a show for us as we speak... I shall report back...

    Thanks Pesto hun....I really appreciate those lovely Words....Hope you are doing well this Afternoon.

    Well I have had some lovely well-deserved rest and I'm feeling MUCH MUCH better now.....Not sure why I was so depressed and down yesterday but it wasn't much fun!! I'm glad that I seem to have Worked and Slept it off....Feeling MUCH more positive now....

    Just about to start again....Until 7pm tonight and then an hour's break and then back on for the Final Night Shift of the Week....

    I may not get to £425 for the Week but I am hoping to get to at least £350...possibly slightly more....

    Next Week things WILL be better....and I WILL get to that magic £500....

    Aww Pesto....sounds like your kids are making the most of their Summer Holidays.....I always feel so sad when kids these days seem to spend all their time playing video games and eating bad stuff....

    Hmmm...do I sound old? :D LoL.

    I AM feeling much more refreshed now....
