Gosh this is late!! where did the time go???
My December total is 255 out of 350 budget
I knew this was going to be a learning curve and i took it steady too. I think i need to take a closer look at what im spending everywhere else as perhaps the groceries weren't the worst problem!
Thanks for all the tips anyway, i know i still have a long way to go and i will be taking it gently so i dont fail0 -
Well done on coming so low! especially with Christmas in the month. Your'e doing the best thing to take it slowly... don't throw the string away. You always need string!
