I just decided to change my bullet journal so I have weekly tasks instead of monthly tasks and wondered how you manage this, but you are not here to ask!!
missing you Tink and hoping all is well?

Hello lovely people

I'm so sorry I have been absent for quite a while. Belated Happy New Year to you all!!

Everything is going good and we had a lovely quiet Christmas and New Year. Work has been crazy as clients tended to ignore reminders that there tax return deadline was 31st January so it was a few late nights to get it all done.

I'm still studying and have an exam tomorrow and I'm no further in debt :j:j I will update my signature shortly with the new amount.

I started a brand new bullet journal this year as I had a present from a lovely friend of a new notebook which I just couldn't resist using. I also got a nightie with Tink on, I couldn't believe it, I love it!!

DIA I have my months listed on one page and then I just jot things down as they come into my head on the opposite page. It seems to be working better for me. I have also incorporated by budget journal into is as I had a separate one but wasn't good at managing both.

So moving day is 7 weeks on Saturday, I have a week off in a couple of weeks so the dogs can spend more time together and also to get the sheds sorted out. I still have a lot of the things from the allotment which we will end up using in mums garden so that will be coming with me. Then I have another week off in April and we are moving at the start of that.

DD's bedroom has been freshened up with a coat of paint and I still have the remaining paint left over from here that I did my room with so I'm going to add some white into it and freshen up my room. Unfortunately mums fridge stopped working on Friday and mine won't fit in hers so that was an expense she didn't need right now.

I really hate living in this place now. What with noisy neighbours at all times of the middle of the night and all sorts of crap dumped outside the front doors. Also I keep cleaning the stairwell but its always a mess.

I'm glad we are moving as I need the spare money now. We have prom coming up this year and also for DD's birthday this year I want to book her driving lessons. Prom is mostly sorted, dress is picked and make up and spray tan booked lol. Its working out cheaper than I thought it would which is a relief. I also would't mind a few days away somewhere but see how that goes.

Well I'm glad to be back and I'm going to catch up on your diaries. Thank you for all still being here for me.

Take care.

So pleased to hear from you Tink!!

Glad you had a nice Christmas and New Year, and I'm really happy that moving into your mums is working out - especially with prom and driving lesson expenses

Yay to your diary updates. You've been so productive while you've been away.

Good luck with the exam today.

Hello lovelies

Well moving day is not long away. We have been busy getting our bedrooms freshened up at mums. DD's is ready now and mine nearly finished. I have done so many runs to the top I've lost count and lots has been hidden in the loft for now.

We've even spring cleaned my mums shed and given it a quick paint so it's nice and cobweb free. I'm really looking forward to it so much now.

A couple of weeks ago I wasn't well at all to the point DD had to call an ambulance. I ended up having a week off work. I went back in for three days and the doctor has signed me off for another two. Don't want to go into it too much but things aren't as great there as they were and my anxiety has rocketed. I'm not sleeping properly, hence the time, and if I'm honest I'm not eating properly either.

I have started to apply for other jobs and was talking to my mums neighbour the other day who mentioned there are jobs going where she works so I have given her my cv today.

Money is going to be so tight this month but my health has to come first.

DD is taking her second mock exams in a week so I helped her to do a revision timetable for those then carried on to her final exams.

I hope everyone has had a good weekend. I have caught up on a few diaries and will carry on with the rest tomorrow.

Take care.

Tink xx

Sorry to hear you've been so unwell Tink, and that things are so rubbish at work. As always, I'm so pleased to hear from you though

Exciting that the big move isn't too far away, hope all goes well

I am so pleased to see you back Tink. Sorry you have been unwell. When things are bad at work it makes life so difficult especially when we have debt and we don't have a partner to take the load as we feel more vulnerable. You are so right to prioritise your health. You are a great debt buster but that can wait. I love how close and supportive you are with your daughter. That's such a positive force that health and work being negative cannot alter. I hope this is a good week for you. DIA x
