Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge 2019

Hi everyone, firstly, I must apologise for disappearing so suddenly from this challenge. A lot has happened in my life over the last few months, and this wasn't a priority. I have been adding too my virtual pot when I can, so I've just declared a transfer of £94.70 to get my stats up to date.
The main change in my life is that I am now separated from my husband, and this has also had a huge impact on savings, income and debt. I'm plowing through though and hope to get things back on track slowly.
Hope everything is ok with everyone here xxxx0 -

Hey Rhibi
Sorry to hear you've been through such a difficult time. I hope as time goes by things start to get easier for you in all aspects of your life. Well done for still trying to put a bit by.

Thanks LittleTinks, I have updated the amounts from October and make the total for October and the year as £349.27.

£12.11 added to the VSP this week!
Thanks for your kind words, life doesn't always go the way we expect it to does it.... I'm plowing through and finding a new kind of normal... in many ways I am happier, as things haven't been right for a long time.
I just need to get through Christmas, and in January I can hopefully really sort my finances out!0 -
Yay well done you Seaotter, so what the next direction, do you want to increase your target for the next month, or just sit quietly till next years challenge??

Well done!:beer:
Intrigued by your signature, particularly the amount of books you've decluttered:T. I love a good declutter myself (seem to be permanently on one:rotfl:) but find it so hard to let go of books, even though I'm drowning in them:o0 -
£6.15 transferred to the VSP this week!!0
