    Thursday already!

    I had a very full day yesterday as I went to a funeral, round to was 7 hours of driving 😱 then dd had training in the evening. So full on. But it was nice to go to the funeral she was a colleague in my healing modality and I have inherited some of her bits, which is lovely, and a job I need to start today!

    So today dd is back to college and will need driving, it's his she has a car as my car is going into the garage, so I need to get it there and then walk home, it's a couple of miles and OH is away, hopefully the rain will hold off another 2 hours! Oh I think it's actually raining now☔ eek!

    Today's pad is only a pound. But it's still something, and I want to keep up the motivation of making a step forward everyday. I had to do a few money moves yesterday and I need to pay for the car today and go to the bank to pay in some money. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bigger payment!

    Pad

    2nd Sept £10.00 3rd Sept £1.00

    Sept total £17.00

    Cc now £2124.00

  • Friyay!

    Still trying to sort out the money moves I did for the car. It cost me just under £600 for the mot service and brake discs and pads which are needed.

    But they didn't look at the air con, so it's got to go back in! Eek

    Also got charged interest, boo, so today's pad to the CC is £22.26 to cover that.

    I'll try and update totals tomorrow.

    Been a very hard day today with 2 of the children not coping and MH issues. It's been very draining!

  • Right so CC is currently 340 higher than it was, which is part of the car bill.

    Eek!

    However, I should have some money to pay this 340 down. DD borrowed my card to buy concert tickets and had given me cash, so I need to pay that in to then transfer it!

  • Busy but nice day today, went to see my nephew in his new, first home. He moved in, in June and I got fed up waiting for an invite!! So I sort of invited us over 😁😁

    Was actually really nice. Tiny little house in a town centre, but super cosy and cute. Perfect for him and a short walk to work!

    When we got back I settled down to making the power point presentations I've been putting off, which I'm giving tomorrow morning. So I couldn't put them off any longer.😱 Took around 5 hours, eek! But 2 done and I won't have to create them ever again!

    Now to get to bed and rest 🥴

    Pad £5

    Sept total...£34.26

    Cc total has gone wrong, still need to sort out. 🫣🫣🫣

  • 💟 Let's do gratefuls💟

    For delicious pizza and salad for tea

    Hi dfw,

    Pp both done, not my best, I get too flustered! But it's good pushing myself out of my comfort zone sometimes.

    Currently on car while DD is playing a football match. But bored, looking at what courses I could sign up for 😁😁😁

    No idea when my mum will move, she is currently away visiting my brother. The not knowing is very stressful! It's the same with my eldest they are also waiting for the last bits to be sorted su they can move in. They have to leave their accommodation on Saturday, currently nowhere to go except the hotel the Gf works in. They can have a really good deal of £25 a night but only for a week. After this week I have no idea what they will do. They can't come to me as they have a cat 🙄🙄

  • Home now and staying at an overwhelming pile of someone's else's stuff filling up my lounge. What's worse is it me who put it here!

    Basically I have inherited a car full, and I mean car full of belongings grin the ladys white funeral I went to. Everything is connected to the healing modality I do and it's very niche, so it can't be passed on to just any one!

    Ive been slowly looking through and trying to decide: keep, charity, sell, take to the headoffice.!!!

    She was a lovely lady and took great care of her stuff, it's very sad to think she will no longer need any of this. 😢 Takes me right back to my sisters passing and inheriting all her bits from the same healing modality. I have about 250 books of my sisters, all spiritual / alternative and too interesting to not keep! Now I have another 30 to 40 books to add that collection and 1 bag for charity and 2 bags to move on.

    And so many files and interesting bits🥴 . I really need an office to put stuff rather than the dining table where I have to pack my stuff up each time we want to eat at the table!

    Anyway, I will get there, and get my lounge back, at some point 😁😁

  • Righto

    PAD today is £2

    Sep total is £36.26

    CC £2122 (this is where I am except for £40 I still need to transfer, but it's currently in cash, not the bank!

    Back on track
