  • Aw they defo don't. 

    Lucky enough my 2 are still puppies - 2 and 3 so plenty time before we need to worry about that. 

    I'm going to plan to fill 5 envelopes this month - will be the very small ones but it's a start.

    I’ve managed to hold on to my small figure envelopes so far but can’t add any more until pay day on the 15th. I’ll be moving up to folding money then, and more of a temptation to open them when I’m broke midway through my pay month.

    i keep looking at my sticky and stained carpets to remind myself of my goal. I had to trim another chunk off the living room carpet after my busted vacuum cleaner got a thread caught in its roller.  It looks horrendous. It IS horrendous. I’m running the rug doctor over it later this week. At least then, it will be clean and scraggly, and not the filthy, wretched rag it currently is.

    i dream of springy new carper with toasty underlay and sound proofing.
