  • Pay day so savings has a boost of up to 2500 didn't get to 3k in the end was too tight and an unexpected bill sadly.

    But all in all positive and now another long time until pay day again.
    Hope all are well.

    Your savings are going well despite not having reached the target you set :)

    Not Updated for a while due to one thing and another

    Savings now up to 3800 - Hope I can keep it at this.

    Still in my family cycle of financial abuse :( which has then led to to issues with plus one - which with deep breath's I think can be resolved.

    So placing that energy back in to trying to achieve another £200 To get to a nice £4k goal.

    All bills paid today so not doing to bad. Need to budget again for the month and stick to it.

    Maybe I will get back on 3bay or something .

    To do for today will start with a declutter, House tidy and a me tidy ( lol ) the garden will have to wait I would have thought.

    Hope all are well

  • First updates for ages

    Savings up woo hoo . Now about £4,500 with no debt. Go a day out or two booked this year instead of a "proper" holiday.

    Need to clear out again so will soon get back to selling and back on here posting.

    Thinking of you all and hope all is good.

    Lovely to hear from you Sam :T:heartpuls

    Sorry to hear that the situation with your family is still going on though, it seems rotten when you work so hard to save. Have you got any help to talk it through - a counsellor if it's a bit too sensitive with plus one?
