Don`t beat yourself up re the lip fillers- the money was given with love and without restrictions.
Your coat and boots sound beautiful...sometimes as new good donations are donated by the stores.
Anyway enjoy yourself- you`ve worked so hard for them.1 -
If spending gift money on lip fillers helps you feel better after a shocking year, good for you!
And so jealous about your charity shop find. Ours never have stuff like that in!Debt free Feb 2021 🎉1 -
Your priest encounter made me think of fleabag... at least you backed off lol
Good on you for your nights out and your lip fillers! Why not? As long as you're happy with it. Worse still having it done and not liking it. It's not like you've got bailiffs turning up to see them
Really hope you get your deposits back. And most of it too!

Sounds like you've been doing amazingly across the board. I'll bet £10ks worth of stock takes up quite a bit of room. Think of the space you'll get back once it's gone! Great to hear you sounding so resolute and strong xxxLoan 1 £5200/£8000

Keep selling 4853emma! Although your profits are impressive, don't forget the amount of money, space and effort your stock takes up. Maybe a 2-out, 1-in policy to reduce?Save £12k in 2025 #2 I am at £4863.32 out of £6000 after May (81.05%)

Oh my life. Does he hear himself? What did your daughter say to that? I hope she is starting to see through him. I think a CSA case is a very good idea. Just wish you'd have done it sooner.
Saying that you're always off on hen dos and luxurious holidays.
Great work on getting back on selling.
