    Thank you for all your kind responses people :p

    So it’s pay day again ( when I finish this last leg I won’t miss working ever day of the week but getting paid weekly and random amounts is ace! )

    So my totals so far for March are...
    £600 extra paid off my debts
    5lbs weight lost
    7 days no booze!
    Feel really proud of that!
    Going to make another payment- I want to get my credit card down to 5k by the end of March that’s my next goal.
    The 5000 was actually a cash advance I got last year to get a camper van- an almost impulse buy that I stopped myself from doing. But I’d aleady borrowed the money and in February when my fixed deal was up I paid it off my mortgage so it’s not money I’ve spent really. I’ve just moved the money I owe on my house if that makes sense. Well it does to me and it interest free until September unlike my actual mortgage !!!128521;

    Well worked all weekend and I’m so flipping tired. I don’t honestly know how long I can keep it up. My life at the moment is work and bed. I was too tired to have a bath last night.
    Anyway still not drunk since last Friday when I woke up with THE HANGOVER ( or flu as everyone else thinks it was).
    Decided to start walking again, I’ve got a gym membership but because I’m always working I can’t get to it ( I know it’s stupid but I don’t want to cancel cause if I do I’ll never go back), so I’ve decided to start walking more. I got a new battery for my fit bug thing then went to download the app to find out they went bust a week ago...never heard off fitbug? Exactly! They were Fitbit’s cheaper brother, anyway had to get myself a new one so spent £100 on a Garmin, which I’m struggling to use, and the cheeky thing keeps buzzing and saying MOVE! So with that I will stop writing and MOVE!
