    Thank you for my star Sue :)

    Gosh, i am so glad this week has been a 5 week month. I have needed the extra time after Christmas.

    I haven't potted much but i have decided February is going to be my month. It has 4 full working weeks Sat-Friday and this just makes me happy!!

    £300 target please! Saving towards a deposit for a mortgage :)

    A £2 and a 50p for me today, was very excited when I got the £2 coin in my change - I really must get a life.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    My son's Kilimanjaro pot for Meningitis Research was building up nicely but unfortunately his collection pot was stolen from my workplace by a patient so he is having to work extra hard with raising more funds :( Hard to keep him motivated, but all for a good cause...

    That's just disgusting, i don't care how little money you have you done steal charity money!

    I don't remember how old he is but tell him to keep going. Maybe set up an online donating page and write on social media pages about what happened. People are good at coming together for things like that.

    That's a great thing to save for. What is the point in saving if it will not improve your life and your future :D

    Thank you for my new star Sue :) They should introduce gold stars at work you know. I'd love it but i don't know about anyone else haha.

    Pay day tomorrow so that will mean more left over pennies for the pot.

    I went to the shop at lunch for a friend and he gave me his 25p change :D potted

    £1.20 potted today. I've hardly been on here thanks to us having 'the phone call' at work last week (I'm a teacher) but it went well so I can breathe now and come back to the lovely world of MSE!
