Ooo small bit of excitement for me money wise.
Paid my £200 DD to my dad. Then paid the last £200. So my loan is paid off. I also paid off a big chunk of my next, have a few items to return so should bring it down a little more. I will be debt free by the time bump becomes baby.
My friend who lost her kitten recently had a 1000 piece puzzle made with her kitten's photo on, she loves puzzles!

Thanks MissE001 and Casper
I know it'll take time. And I have cut myself some slack on the spends this week.
That sounds like a good idea Casper. I was thinking of doing a photo book as I have lots of photos all over the place of him, as in my phone, my iPad and my computer, so will put them in one place.SPC 18 Target £200 /0 -
