    Doing not so bad with this.

    Spent some recently for birthday gifts and Christmas so staying on track with this.

    Waiting on a £50.00 cheque to come through from Populuslive which will be this month at some point so this is going straight into the savings for something or other.

    Also got a £15.00 Amazon voucher this morning so will just keep that on my account until I have enough to order another pressie.

  • You have come so far Dolly. A long time ago in 2016 you told me that 2017 would be our year and I think you were 100% right. You have done so well.
    It's brilliant for you but it's also great for us to read about too.
    You've encouraged me to plan and Ive started my Christmas shopping and have the parents bought for. This is my biggest cost and it's done!
    Good luck for rest of month (and beyond) and thank you for all your updates. xxx

  • Ah thanks PSL.

    How much better do you feel knowing that big cost is out of the way for Christmas - I love it!

  • Morning lovelies,

    Back is still sore, got some paracetamol & codeine from Boots so they are helping.

    If it is still sore Friday will call the Drs in the morning to go report it to them so it is recorded.

    Consulted with Dr Google, wouldn't suggest it.

    Had such a busy weekend. Shopping & lunch with my Mum then up to my best friends for a drink on Friday as she got engaged last weekend.

    Yesterday I met a friend for lunch & shopping, spent too much but had a great day!

    Feel like I haven't had a minute & didn't get a chance to do my grocery shop so will need to do that today after work.

  • Dr Google is the work of the devil and only cures the ability to sleep soundly.

    Hope all is well xx
  • Yeah doing good lovely.

    Had a busy and expensive weekend so in work trying to balance the funds out, needed to take a wee bit from savings but not bothered as had a lovely family afternoon tea at Dobbies yesterday so was worth it.
