Payday!!!
I have transferred over to holiday fund. Over a healthy £1,000.
I transferred to house deposit. I still owe this money (£90 eek) but will pay this back while I can over the month, will not struggle through this or beat myself up right now.
I am back on my healthy eating, starting back on shred and will go to gym while I can. I am finding myself too depressed and the gym helps me feel positive on things.
200 points away from £50 cashout and just missed a survey ahhh lol

Morning Monz,
So glad to see that things are better for your little lad now, your mother's day sounded lovely!
This parenting is tricky stuff isn't it? DD is off to High school this year and I'm terrified, I remember the awful time I had there
Kids can be so cruel. I'm just making sure she has a safe and happy home as sanctuary.
Brilliant potting for Florida :cool: You'll be there before you know it. xxEmergency Savings #73 = £1,500/£2,000

Sounds like a busy week ahead Monz, even I'm exhausted after reading that!
Yay to Payday, that's always a good thing0 -
Last night was parents night and he got a great one. Minus her mentioning that sometimes when he sits down he puts his hand on ground n looks about... imagine that at 6 years old clearly something wrong with him... joke i went well maybe you should correct him and say pay attention but he is young. they are stil making out like autism and that.... he likes to touchthings like !!!!!!!! anyway came back from parents night and bumped into a boy in his class at the park.... spent next two hours there and he had a brilliant time.
27 days to payday and after today off for a weekxx
