    Happy Saturday! Looks like lots of fab mse activity going on. I hope everyone enjoyed thier wine :)
    @jadewest94 - you sound so positive! Keep going!
    @allydowd - you can eat those frogs! I actually have two plastic frogs on my desk that were given to us on a managment course as a reminder to eat the frog
    @DawnW - you sound busy in a really productive way

    Well it's pretty nippy here. could not get warm yesterday and smart meter was showing shocking amounts of money spent. Still, it is what it is! We went to pick the shopping up yesterday and took the car for a short run to keep the battery charged. Most disconcerting to find that the car and house, and our neightbours car and house appeared to be covered in red spatters. My neightbour was convinced it was bloody bird poo but I thought it was either actual bird blood (the buzzard got something perhaps?) or something that was in the gritter when it went past. Either way it wiped off easily. 

    Plan today is to get out for a walk I think. Have avoided it for a couple of days due to cold weather. Also need to do a NEBOSH section before OH is up. 
    Other plans involve finishing my jeans off. Just need to put the hems on before I can wear them.

    Have a good one all

    Well done @jadewest94. Will you be closing the cards once they are paid off?
    Yes definitely! I have another 5 to pay off and 3 loans. :sweat_smile: I am focused and determined to do this!
