That's a beautiful quote and photo @AntoMac. The quote is so very true and I'll be adding it to my list of quotes 🤗.
I'm glad that you have such a nice time with your mum. It really does make a difference to enjoy life at a different pace. Sometimes, just having silent moments with our loved ones can really settle and soothe something deep within our soul, doesn't it?

Morning, @AntoMac I really like the quote you posted too. It's important to press pause and reflect, something I like to do very often. I do wonder what life will be like when I'm debt free, in terms of what my focus will be.
Anyway, £110 to debt today. Xx4 -
Good morning everyone, my PAD today is £21.99 to various places please

It's most definitely quality over quantity @AntoMac, and I think pausing to reflect is crucial. I also don't know what my focus will be once I am finally debt free @Adeley, but I often fantasise about the better quality of life that I will have.
My PADs are:
£275 direct debit to Barclaycard
£28.55 PAD pot payment to MBNA
£4.15 to the seal pot challenge
Total PAD of £307.70

@AntoMac, that quote always brings a tear to my eye these days. I lost my mum suddenly some years back and it's just so true, you need to make the most of today because tomorrow isn't promised.Life gets in the way...PADding is addictive...Saving's better than spending...My savings diary - Now for a healthier, wealthier me2025 1p challenge #41 | Cash envelope challenge #01 | SPC #017Sealed pot 2025 £6573 | EF £1000/£1000 | Sabbatical £3364/£6000 | Travel savings £1508 | Sinking pots £25714
