Here is a motivational quote for you Mrs B

Really sad day in our house. OH got up to find that one of our cats Miss F had died in her sleep. This was so sudden there was no indication yesterday that anything was wrong.
We will so miss her spirit, love, cat kisses and purrs.
Her brother knows something's wrong but not quite what

Hello dear diary and readers
I've had the case of the blues and apathy, although I have been reading diaries and threads I have not felt able to post.
Well after an unexpected bout of norovirus on Monday - it's cleaned my system out throughly and now I feel new :rotfl:
So on my agenda:
1. Personal finances
2. HM Gifts
3. business
4. Decluttering
5. Knitting club/charity
6. Groceries freezer, menu planning
7. lent
8. fitnessAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

100 day challenge
When I got the case of the blues I stopped the 100 challenge to pay a small amount off to my Halifax
So Day 1. £5.50 + £5 the latter is to recognise I have not bought the latest Pr1m@ craft magazine
SPC
Just a small amount dividend of £1.36! ( from a 21st birthday gift - the dividends use to pay my car insurance :rotfl:)
Owed to Joint Account
Negotiated the last 4 years NI I paid from my pocket money account should have been joint expense, so this has been knocked off the amount owed. Reduced by £503.60 !
Subscriptions
Having read some thought provoking threads I have cancelled my magazine subscriptions Pr1m@ paid quarterly and W @ H paid annually, the latter was dec so will have this to end of year. However, it means if I am desperate for a magazine I can choose one of a variety. Hoping to wean myself off altogether - saving this year £60
So my overall personal debt ( not joint that's significantly higher ) is £1186.99 ) this I am focused on to get rid ASAPAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
