Hey!
I think once you find out yours and your OH's new pays and work out exactly what kind of budget you have a month you'll feel a lot better.. sometimes it's the not knowing what you have to deal with that can be exhausting... I think it's definitely an up and down journey becoming debt free, but as long as the debts are going down, then you should be feeling up... so long as you don't have a poorly baby to deal with!
Hope you enjoy your weekend anyhow!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270 -

Hi smarties
Hope you are feeling a bit happier and not in pain now.
It is hard to stay motivated sometimes as Rags says you feel like 1 step forward and 2 back. We will all get there in the end, we are all here for eachother X X XDebt at LBM [strike]£17,544[/strike] :eek: £5700:TOver £14,000 PAID OFF :T
2020 the year of less - Less debt, less waste, less spending, less stuff, less stress!0 -
Ahh thank you all of you, yes its good to be in the same boat so we can all help and advise.
Today i went to mums (used to be a hairdresser) and she cut my hair as it desperatly needed doing. So that saved me going to the hairdressers, so money saving there.
I also had homemade lasagne for tea and salad that mum made for me, and my family so another money saving bit there.
Hope you are all well x0 -
