  • Yeah he sure will be, that's what I am trying to focus on now is the changes we will need to make later in life if we keep going the way we are at the minute.

    I want to be able to enjoy our wee OAP years not have to be worrying about money & that's why we need to change while we are still young enough.

    A&E - hope you are okay my sweet!

    I would also love receiving those letters, such a good wee motivator.

    That's great your DH got such a good deal on the laptop & a 200.00 OP is brilliant :j

  • Hi all...just a quick update. What a ridiculously busy week! Lots and lots of work when possible including multiple jobs on more than one day, commitments to meet with friends and my slimming club (nice but bed was calling) and quite spendy on some necessary things and some silly impulsive purchases to save time (Te$co). Wish it was the end of my working week but 1.5 days to go yet. Looking forward to getting chance to catch up with diaries, and roll on payday next week as OP's are limited this week (boo)

  • Grr....Can't sleep! The cats are happy to have mummy awake, but mummy would like to be snoring at 6am on her only day off lol

    Had a nice afternoon with a friend yesterday (£13 spent including £4 essential medication). Planning to do as little as possible this morning then go and make dinner for the parents followed by tea out.

    Happy Sunday all x
