    Thanks hun :p

    Now, do we save it for a rainy day or offer full and finals :confused:


    set aside 10% to splurge/treat the kids...

    use the rest for F&F of niggly debts, assuming DMP will allow it?

    Keep your offers low and clear as many creditors as you can, it will be so liberating!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
