Reading my list makes me tired. I've just realised that while I've been very industrious (for me), I've been doing stuff not on my list but that still needed done. Annoying or what?Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

Just lost the post I was writing
I suggested you go back and edit your original list, adding the things you HAVE done, then striking them through to reward your effort.
Then I said, if it were me, I'd go and get a cuppa and a snack to celebrate my effort (and ability to procrastinate)
Inspired by you, I am going to actually get dressed nowx

Add it to the list, then score it off again. It's what I do
Phew re the HKD. Though it's none of my business how anyone else spends their money, I did think <holy moley> when I was thinking USD :eek: . In that case, that's not stupid money for a lifetime bag0% card was £1126.91 / Now £1502.37

Echoing everyone re. loving the bag! I'm a bag person myself as being tall my feet have always been too big for designer shoes! My designer bags (from pre-money saving days naturally!) have been the things that have NOT ended up at the local dress agency (unlike my un-designer bags)!:DFinally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟
