  • Thanks guys! For now I don't really know what the next target is. I'm just enjoying breathing without worry, really.

    Scottish, yes it looks like we will be moving at some point soon, probably towards the summer. And yes, we are REALLY looking forward to Montreal, thank you! It'll be strange to go away just the two of us. I think that's when the next set of goals will be made, when it's just us, with no pressures from work or small children to distract.

    One thing that I have learned though - when you start on your debt free way, your debt free date looks a LONG way away. It comes round quicker than you think. You will pay off bits earlier because you're determined. Our original date wasn't until 2010, or maybe 2011 I think. I was devastated when I worked that out, and was determined to find a way to get it gone quicker.

    From now on we're going to try to save. Maybe not ALL the snowballing money, since it'll be nice to have some treats finally, but a good part of it.
