My foot pain has eased off again. Those trainers have definitely made a difference.
Today we are helping my folks move into their new house. It will be great to have them 15 mins walk awayBit of a difference from nearly 800 miles!
I'm taking the kids to their swimming lessons so hopefully I'll avoid the worst of the heavy lifting

Aww just had some lovely news. There's a trail around town this summer, and my little miss's design has been chosen to be one of the items on the trail 😍 She's so pleased, and I'm very proud. It's all her own design and work. I'm guessing we'll be bidding if they auction them off at the end."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

Thank you both.
Feeling a bit grotty today, up all night coughing. Tested negative thankfully. No plans today but chill out and potter at home.

PAD is 'Payment a day'. It used to be a long running challenge on here, but I'm not sure if it still runs. It's a great way of making a difference to your debt/adding to savings without even noticing it!
