    Has a bit of fun today. I got it free with the car but this is me driving this. I did a lot more and was on two wheels at one point, but he couldn't take a picture of that!

    Morning,

    Weather is awful this morning and was so stormy in the night. 

    I'm working a little this morning, dropping DD at her dad's and then I need to study. Hoping to be finished mid afternoon so that I can get going on my jigsaw and relax with a book later on. I've read several over the last week. 

    Hopefully I get a good balance today of everything.

    I read a post with a quote on about a fisherman and a business man. I can't remember where it was and on whose thread. 

    If anyone can remember,please can you let me know? Thank you

    Happy NYE everyone. 

    I'm off to a pantomime later with the family and then home to relax. I don't really celebrate new year and will likely be in bed by 10pm. I've hurt my back again yesterday lifting a heavy bag so I'll be hoping for sleep!

    I'm happy with my debt paying plans from Jan onwards. I hope I can achieve what I set out to. I have no resolutions as I never stick to them. My biggest target, and its been one I've been working on the last few months, is balance. Balancing debt paying with also ensuring I am not restricting myself too much. 

    Hope that everyone has a peaceful start to the New Year.
