Payment A Day Chapter 18

PAD total for 30 October 2022 is £135.41
@Deleted_User saved the day yesterday with a large PAD!

My quote was meant as a positive, sorry. I believe that being thankful for those we still have and treasuring the memories of those we have lost is important. 

I’ll try and come up with something more uplifting next time!

I hope you're mum is doing better @shell16, you've had a tough year, but I hope your mum is getting settled and the trip to see her is not taking too much of a toll due to the distance.

That quote got me in the feels as well @LittleMissDetermined, as it made me long for the moments when I had absolutely nothing to say to my dad when he was having a dementia episode, but I miss the opportunity of that silence if it makes sense?

I've put £18.15 in my virtual pot for the penny challenge.

No apology needed for me AntoMac, it’s very true that we need to remember how important the present is x

I think the quote did that perfectly so don't worry 😘. It reminded me that I need to slow down and enjoy the silence now and then and appreciate what and who I have around me, and yet it also remind me of what I have lost and cherish. Life is so very short, and we do need to slow down to appreciate it as we are often focussing on targets and forgetting that living exists in the moments where nothing much seems to happen. I think giving ourselves permission to do nothing is sometimes the best gift of all.

My sister paid me back what she had borrowed from my emergency fund, so I have put £100 to the emergency fund.

Fantastic PADding everyone.
I know September was over £17K but it’s still a brilliant amount

That was my thinking @Keedie
It’s like the John Lennon lyric ‘Life is what happens to you when you’re busy making other plans’ from Beautiful Boy, which I sing to my old boy cat   
PAD of £6 to debt.
Your sleep pattern seems perhaps even more erratic than mine!

Have a good Tuesday everyone.
