So today I have made a to do list as long as my arm... I have already been to gym and done washing up, so thats two things ticked off. At least it keeps me busy in this grotty weather. I am half job hunting, feeling a bit lost in my current role and looking for something to inspire me and sink my teeth into. Problem is, I currently quite like my part time and own boss combo... I just need to stretch my brain a bit!
Anyway, short and sweet today. EF is now up to £280. Got prolific open just in case I can squirrel more! Have a good day!Debt as of 29/12/25

Nothing new to report. Currently sat in bed with sore throat, and tight chest but will be getting up shortly. Normal day for me, a bit of patchwork and then working all afternoon, could do with fitting in a shop but might wait until later.
Trying to get organised with Christmas presents today, working out what I've got and what I need to get. Trying to get on top of it all.
How's everyone's Christmas shopping going?Debt as of 29/12/25

Hey there. I’m catching up following holiday and then a sickness.Hope you’re doing well with Prolific, mine tends to go in fits and starts but I’m always keen to take advantage when I can.
Of you’re working part time but enjoy the autonomy and flexibility could you perhaps look to join an OU course to give you something else as a challenge? There are lots of free courses, including language courses to consider.Keep at the EF, it’s building nicely ☺️Life gets in the way...PADding is addictive...Saving's better than spending...My savings diary - Now for a healthier, wealthier me2026 1p challenge #7 | Cash envelope challenge #01 | SPC #017EF £1000/£1000 | Sabbatical £4220/£60000
