Marathon training isn't going well. I am really fed up. I just can't seem to get into it at all. I had a huge headache yesterday and that meant I missed a run. I can't seem to push myself past 7 or 8 miles at the moment. Worst case scenario is that I have to walk some of it but I reallly don't want to.
Hope you feel better and more motivated Cheeseface. Still well done on the January overdraft!Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

You did very well to keep out of the overdraft! Well done. And hope your marathon training will suddenly leap forward. Sometimes you just hit a plateau don't you in sports, but if you keep going you will get better. Bit of an analogy for this debt free game here too if you think about it." Your vibe attracts your tribe":D

Thanks! I'm hoping I will just wake up one day very soon and have a good run.
Still on track spends wise. We have £12 until Saturday. I had £30 but the window cleaner came so I had to give £16 to him. I also had to pay £2 for school breakfast club as I had an early appointment today. We don't need anything except our evening meal on Friday and I could make something out of the freezer/cupboards anyway.
Financial gains today, £100 cashback from life insurance following annual renewal. However this will go towards today's financial losses. I have been having trouble focusing on my computer and I need new glasses. I should be able to claim this back from my health insurance though.
I also put some of my crochet blankets in my Folksy shop. I make them for fun so I won't make any kind of profit on them, even if they sell. Hopefully I can sell enough to cover the cost of my yarn.0 -
Good idea to see if you can get a hobby you love to pay for itself - fingers crossed!
