    :wave: Hey sweetie!

    I can't believe how well you're doing! I'm so impressed with your drive and determination.

    And saving for a wedding as well as paying off debts?! It sounds gorgeous. I'm very excited about your wedding. :dance: :dance: :dance: Will we get to see pics?

    I know you get fed up sometimes hon, but that's just because you have a double load on your plate.

    Just think, once the wedding is paid for there'll be so much spare cash sloshing around that the debts won't stand a blimmin chance!

    You go girl!

    Love Jacks xxx :D
