Diary of a Poor Person aged 46 1/2

mrscmr

oh dear me... shame on me cos i havent been on for ages and ages...

life moving at fast rate! no time to think even.

we're ok i suppose... working harder than ever in my life... debt going down... having trouble with mbna but infact having more trouble with egg - they are grimsters.
our credit cards and loans stand at 124,333 which means we have paid off 87419 since nov 08.... leaving our biggest number at 487k which means selling the house at 575k paying off the mortgage at 363k leaves us with enough to pay it all off and then start again. have given us a target of this by end of year. dont care if live in rented... just want debt gone.

found out child #3 has adhd so thats being investigated as to the best course of action

how everyone?

Hi mrs cmr, glad to see you hope you are well, house sounds like a good sell :-). My minds blank on ADHD but I'm glad you have a diagnosis...
All is well in land of happy well numbers are reducing etc etc :-) xx

I there mrsmcr. WOW that is an awesome amount to have paid off. Well done.

haven't had a look at the site yet but it is on my to do list for tomorrow

looking forward to the next installment

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis, but on the other hand, if you have had a feeling that something wasn't quite right, then getting a diagnosis might be a bit of a relief.

Hope all is well mrs cmr keep doing what your doing, i think a summary of events is in order like a bullet point of where you started and wherw we are at now its amazing really from the first post to the last few pages of posts we have seen you make some real differences and some great changes my god you even have been on the tv and in a magazine xxxx
