  • :wall::wall:Miscalculated my finances and left myself short for the month. Having to use the credit card to pay for next week's train tickers. It's only £28 and I will be paying it all back next friday but ugh.

    Forgot I had to pay for some business related expenses that I won't get back until payday (next friday). My dd is due to go out but I think that will be after the bank holidays now, otherwise no more payments from me until next week

    Is it just me or is April dragging for anyone else? It seems to be going on forever! Maybe because I'm not making payments due to car insurance...

    Currently staying at the boyfriends :) had a bit of a chat about what he wants to do in the future and he is very much on board with the cottage idea so hopefully will have two savings pots on the go when he finishes uni. He seems excited and that's exciting for me!

    Gonna write up some May aims to keep me motivated as April is boing for me!

    Yep, April is dragging on for me too. Pay Day was 3 days early because of the bhl long weekend so the last week and half is going to drag as I'm trying to pretend my money hasn't been paid so my budget isn't skewif.

    #174 Sure is and I have not been able to make any overpayments this week! Payday for me next week so going through my excel budget sheet working out where to "dump" over payments to! Hope everybody is having a pleasant Bank Holiday.
