Not a good start to may yesterday but had a riot with friends and family this weekend.
Feeling rough in work today so drinking on a school night needs to stop this month.
Cant remember if i set a target so will aim for 14 please @cathybird for May, this should cover not drinking on a school night! Declaring 1/14 today!4 -
Managed 1 yesterday and declaring early 2 for today.
Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!4
