Happy birthdayA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Thanks guys.
I have been given a lot of baking stuff by Mr AJM and my mum, I can't put off learning to decorate my cakes any longer!
What a difference a year makes though. Mr AJM's son text last night to ask if they could meet us for a coffee today so he could give me my birthday present, a year ago I never ever thought this would happen. It means a lot to me that I have been accepted so easily by him, quite looking forward to today.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200

I had a lovely day yesterday, lunch was nice and Mr AJM and I had a posh meal out for dinner.
I have just been for a 3 mile run (the first one in nearly 2 weeks and the first of anything in 10 days), HDK was starting to put me to shame. I pushed myself too far though so I had a consistently high heart rate which resulted in me feeling quite sick for the last mile and a half. I intend to address this in 2 weeks time but I am expecting a fitness test at work soon so need to keep up with running at whatever pace happens.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200

I seem to have lost the knack for updating!
Everything moneywise seems to be going well at the moment. I am currently sticking to my planned OP schedule and putting any extra joint money towards our holidays. I am £9 a day spending of my own money again this month, anything I haven't spent is being put aside (not in my ISA). Mr AJM and I are planning on going for a personal shopper session at a department store so I am putting the money aside for the inevitable large bill. If I am lucky enough not to spend it all or find bargain I can transfer the money left to my ISA.
I have a few things to chase up for our monthly outgoings or to price match. I am going away with work for 3 weeks soon so want to sort it by then. I can't spend much while I am away so that will be more money savedMFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200
