    Having a chilled Sunday here, have cut my sons hair, more because when OH took him to the hairdressers last time it definitely wasn't what I wanted so feel nervous of him going again. It's curly so I have just cut each curl but need to wash it and make sure it falls as we would like. Not sure I would be as brave with straight hair but curly hair is pretty forgiving. I gave my smallest son his first haircut and it came out as I wanted so hopefully this will be fine when washed and bounced back.
    I think I saved about 10 doing this so will send the equivalent over to Felicitous to keep her racing along.

    Thank you MF, I do love my little ones curls. 
    Ginnyknit, I am quite a visual person so it definitely helps to give the extra push. My boys are very precious to me it was a long and hard journey to get them and every day I look at them and know we have been blessed with the most incredible little people in our lives. I love the time I get with them and feel so very lucky. Tomorrow I am going to try and do some Christmas cards with my little one  :)

    Lovely to read about your little 'un's...  I can imagine your motivation will stay strong whenever you think about them (and your) future together. Every bit helps your goal!  :)

    They are my driving force, my desire to improve things to make their lives better in the future comes from my boys  :)
    Various cash outs and roundings today have given my horse a little more go. £29.53 transfered leaving me with 51.88 to find for my mini target.
    MF I did take out the 6.66 in the end as thought it may be a bad omen.

    Had a lovely day yesterday playing and making Christmas cards with my smallest and then watched my eldest Nativity virtually. 
    Worked today which is full of change and feel pretty unsettled atm but everyone is in the same boat and just trying to go with it.
    I have spent a bit of money out of the roof pot but due to this being an account I opened to cash in on an account transfer I need to of made a certain number of purchase with it to qualify. I believe I have hit the condition and will double check but will be leaving well alone now. Wasn't a big spend.
    I have some p3olifi0 money to cash out tomorrow so that will go back in to feed the horse.
    I got paid for some of my own business work tonight.. I don't yet know where I'm going to put the money. 3 options, EF, Roof or mortgage OP. I set up my business and always said anything made from it would be a mortgage OP so I think my heart is telling me to put it there but my head is telling me it should be EF or roof. It doesn't help that I am locked out of my mortgage app (need to sort tomorrow) as would quite like to see the balance before deciding. I appreciate I am lucky to have the decision but don't want to do something I might regret.

  • Not long til you break up!
    Could you do ¹/3 into each, they all get fed and it satisfies any feelings of neglecting one over another.
