Lots of things on these wishlists here

I wonder if anyone has managed to get the items they wanted after all these months?

My wishlist for 2017: (although we're already over 1/3 through)

Get to £2000 in savings (currently £1375.03)
Start doing some driving lessons again
Pass my GCSE English (been on an evening course since Sep, got my exams in June)


I'm sure I'll think of some more to add later :)

You're doing great with your savings!!

How much are driving lessons these days? When I learned in 1998 they were £11 an hour which was hard enough to earn at that age!

Looking at £21 an hour now!

Hoping to do an intensive course though, 40hrs, theory and practical around £800-1,000.

Wow! This is a really inspiring thread. Fab looking back at how people have realised some of their wishes :)

OK, so I'm adding mine here in the hope that in due course I'll be able to tick some things off :-

- Funky new laptop
- New dining chairs
- Complete overhaul of Son's bedroom (decor and furniture)

I have lots more house-related spends but thought I'd break it down into realistic chunks.

Anyone else care to update previous posted lists/add new?

I'm sure you'll get the first 2 in the bag.
the third one, you'll also do.
The final one is the most important.

Couldn't agree with you more!

My Mum's having open heart surgery soon (I'm sure I've said about 5 times LOL) so I'll be just focusing on working a bit less this year. If that means I make less money then that's cool. We will be fine.

My wishlist for 2018:
- Increase my blog views
- Monetise my blog more
- Read more (I'm aiming for 1 blog a month, I used to read a lot before kids and time to get back to it!)
- Increase my side hustle income (my overall goal is to give up my p/t job by the time both my kids start school)

Good luck with your lists

My 2018 wish list-
Make enough from activities outside of main job to...
Buy myself a nice new laptop
Get my bestie out of one of her outstanding debts so that she can keep her head above water
Realistically this need to be in the order of £5k so this is going to be MB, surveys, plus my new learnings from here! There needs to be a lot of new learnings ha ha
