Hi all,

Thank you so much for making me feel so welcome! I love this year being the "year of possibilities" as DreamerHelen creatively put it!!

I used to get some brown envelopes and try and work in cash each payday (which didnt really work for me that well as I would spend on the card when I was out (and cash at home) and then end up putting the cash back in the bank!) soooo... clearing out the tin of brown envelopes, I actually had £100.00 there!

Officially off the blocks and I cant wait to join you all for this crazy ride! HNY to you all and my signature has been updated!

£100/£2,000

DreamerHelen, I know what you mean about not having loved ones around for Christmas. This was the first Christmas since we lost my m-in-l and my dad, so we were all a bit down over the last week.

Anyway, my 3-6 month fund now stands at £85.

Morning Peeps

I think I'm feeling better at last....Still a bit bunged up and coughing every now and again but overall I think I'm on the mend...

Started eating MUCH better from yesterday....Need to get some weight off me....So I'm going to try my best for that this Year...

This Year is still the "Year of Possibilities"....and I'm setting out the Goals that I want to achieve this Year, both personal, saving and professional Goals....I need to feel like I've achieved something by the end of this Year....2016 was such a rubbish Year that THIS Year needs to be better and more successful... xXx

Here's to the Updates....

Happy New Year everyone!!!

Helen - You totally summed up last year. For me too it was a year of emotional turmoil and unhappiness. I think drawing a line under it (if it was a bad year for you too) is a great plan... '2017 : The Year of Possibilities' - I love it!!!

For me - a big part is looking at what I did well, what I didn't, what can I let go... and what will I carry forward. For me personally I also need to take an honest look at myself and see why certain patterns repeated for me over the last few years - I can't help feel there must be something I am doing/not doing that is contributing. It's all in the realms of personal relationships... If I can just apply the same determination and energy to working on those as I have my financial issues I'll be sorted in no time haha!

So - Jan 2017 off to a good start...

Amount added = £250
3-6 Month EF = £2300/£4500

Keep up the good work everyone!!!
