You’re being so kind and generous to everyone else. Don’t forget to be kind and generous to yourself too even if that occasionally means saying no…3

Today was hectic as we had pre planned a time I wasn’t available and getting keys was an issue.I do think sometimes I need to be kinder to myself. I take a lot on xSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330

Morning,
I was watching The Pit Pony last night. Buffy’s thread suggested it for teachers and it really made me think. I’m still thinking now!
Got a few things to think about as well. My first is a coffee machine. They’re well used in my house and I don’t currently have one. A brand has an offer on them at the minute so it would be worth me buying one. I’m waiting to see this months childcare cost though as she was off the first week and it will be reduced.I’m owed £65 for a machine I sold, I just don’t have it yet. The new machine is £79 and that includes enough pods for a month so I’ve earned the money and it doesn’t change my budget.All the big bills are out tomorrow. That will bring lots of positives. Mortgage lower than when I first went single, loan an extra £500 paid off. Emergency fund has started and my attempt to save is on its way.I’m looking forward to cooking today. I really enjoy it.XSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330
Starting afresh.

We have a coffee machine and use it everyday. I don’t mind paying out for something that will be used. Was thinking of buying a waffle maker for my GK’s to use when they stay here, but then thought might as well buy the waffles already made from the shop, as they only stay a few times a year.xx:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.003
