Need to share my good news......

Hi All

I dont have a diary, I dont even post on these boards very often; I tend to simply lurk for inspiration! But i just have to share my good news with someone......I paid off my credit card with the highest interest rate this week!!! :j I also cleared the last of my Next Account.

Im a long way from 'Debt-Free' but im proud that ive finally cleared something and feel like I'm getting somewhere!!

xx
