Well done on the new diary, you achieved a lot in the last 12 months, ok the debt may not of gone down as much as you wanted, but as youve said you've budgeted, you sets aims, now baby steps, most importantly remember one thing, you are in charge of the debt, the debt is not in charge of you!!

Hi Buffy and well done on the new diary and being a MSEr for a year.
Slow and steady definately wins the race, I am just like you though I want everything instantly, I hate waiting for things but looking back it was this attitude that got me in debt. I tended to want something, buy it and then worry about paying later.
Anyway..........positivity and babysteps we will get there for sure.
Good luck hunProud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712

I missed this last night. Just adding my good wishes for a very debtslaying year..i too have been thinking about being a tad more focused on my debts rather than my beans!LOL
So am going to be busy with menu plans and also with getting rid of irritating debt!Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0
