Given that you were anticipating a lower income, does this mean the extra bit can go towards achieving some of your aims?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 11st 12lb determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

the storm for me last night was very disappointing! Hope everyone is safe and sound.
I have a lot to do this weekend re work and sorting out gifts for people.
The depression has kicked in big time as it does when something is changing or finishing. Had an terrible hour or so at school yesterday with some kind of anxiety attack. Luckily tho my new work friend invited me round for tea after school which was lovely.
I am late for work as I sit here typing.
best get a shift on.

I wish I could invite you for tea! We could have yummy things and nice wine, and make lists and plans.
Something that is helping me (not much, granted, as I'm still a bit of a mess) is trying to be conscious of when I'm feeling really depressed, and reminding myself that although it's horrible, time IS passing, and time is the thing that helps the most.

Yes I am a big fan of that Snaggles X I just keep thinking ok. you won't feel like this for ever. just keep moving forward in tiny tiny tiny ways.
Today was actually very good, if not productive. Work was good and then I went to visit my friend and her puppies. Really made me want to get oneluckily I knew they all had homes. But it was nice to dream for a bit.
the dogs went nuts when I got home sniffing and licking me for a good five minutes. Am looking forward to spending more time with them when I am off.
Have to check the banks accounts XXNevertheless she persisted.0 -
