    Ohh no Neverending, that's awful, something like that really puts a spanner in the works. Hope he is ok. x

    Thanks that's definitely worth knowing. He's home now and doing a lot better. Sounds silly having a moan about parking but by the time you've been done a and e the clothes drop off and daily visits it adds up 😂

    Thanks. He's doing okay. Will be seen as an outpatient now for follow up and possible surgery.

    £10 off most stressful cc today courtesy of prolific💪🏻 also managed to put £5 in my alligator saving fund to try cover bills for lack of wage next month (nearly there as I cashed out my LISA after realising it serves me no purpose as I have pension ready and I’m no longer a first time buyer due to the ex getting the house). My snowflakes are more valuable going off the emotional stressor of the cc, so I alternate them between debt payoff and alligator prep 😵‍💫🥳

    bit of a nightmare not having wages next month. :(. what happens if you cash out your LISA ? do you lose your bonus and pay tax ?

    I lost £100 luckily I didn’t have much in it so this was a low amount compared to what it could have been, relief!
