    Up early watching England play cricket in Bangladesh - my main indulgence these days is Sky Sports - but it gives me chance to check the finances and make a payment of £35 to one of the balance ccs.

    Morning all

    Trouble sleeping here too Erme but it's down to stress levels from work at the moment looking forward to pay day next week followed by a long weekend to myself.

    Have a good day all

    Sorry couldn't find a way to multi quote more than three keedie but slept ok last night. More than what I'd like but I can work on that....rome wasn't built in a day - basic reality - only up for 3/4 hour in night - not the 2-4 hours (or longer) it has been - for that I praise the Lord

    I have a simple mental health wellness plan
    • Sleep well
    • Eat well - keep an eye on junk food!!!
    • take meds

    Welcome Penniesinmyjar, you've discovered a great asset to achieving financial freedom!:T

    My PAD is £5 today please Erme - and I'm glad that you're able to sleep with less night time interruption. Your MHWellness Plan sounds very similar to mine - albeit in the reverse order; medication, eating well, me time and sleeping well :D
