  • Hey everyone,

    So back to work, had another busy but fun weekend.

    Out on Thursday with my Sister and the 2 little people, we headed to the Transport Museum & met by bestie there with her 2. They have set up a beach over there, basically just a huge sandpit, everyone loved it!

    Friday headed out in Loch Lomond to have a picnic with my work friend. I took my Mum and my niece and nephew and she brought her 2, we had a great day in the sun, paddling about in the water.

    Yesterday I had a chilled day at home alone, my Mum is staying with my Granny this weekend so I had an empty! Gone are the days when I would use this as an excuse to have a crazy party, instead I watched the Handmaids Tale, such a good watch if you haven't already seen it!

  • * Be debt free (Debt £6,649.97)
    * Have an emergency fund
    * Have a rainy day fund
    * Buy my first ever home
    * Be healthy and happy

    Dxxx

    Debt is now at £3,709.66, paid another £100 of there this morning to get it down to that total. Will be putting everything I can in to this, want to start 2019 with no debt!

    I have started both my EF and RDF. EF has £140 and the RDF has £350. Could just pay this towards the debt but it is a good feeling having some savings in the account so for the minute will just keep it building.

    Working on the last 2 still!

  • Morning all,

    Good start to the day for me. Slept in then when I was about to run out the door I grabbed my handbag and somehow the strap got tangled and the bag ended up upside down, every single thing in there all scattered over the floor :rotfl:

    Still managed to make it to work on time though, how on earth I do not know!
