I just wanted to let you know that I think you are a true inspiration. I read your story from beginning to end and you motivated me to start my own diary (of sorts).
How you have coped and fought just leaves me speechless and that doesn't happen often
I'm gonna continue to follow you (if that's okay?) because without you I wouldn't be here fighting the fight.
Much luv and keep going you're nearly there - lucky you x
Come along for the ride - you are very welcome to the nutty upside world that is mine.
Thanks for your kind words - I'm trying hard to stay motivated.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

£353.50 for the cable - hubby was expecting more but I'm a very happy cherub.
Going to Belfast tomorrow - very excited. However, I have to drag my a$$ to the Post Office with around 20 parcels first. A total of £360 has been transferred to my bank account from paypal, plus a load still to be paid for - and even more to list:eek:.
And another £78ish sitting in paypal. Using it to buy some Nike Body Armour for DS for Christmas presents.
Also have a bundle of surveys to get through in my inbox.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Well thanks, LBM's are scary. The journey is tough - if it was easy we would all have done it earlier. Good luck, and thanks for reading all of my utterings.

Have a great time in Belfast!!!!!! And I think that's a good price you got for the wire ... OH has finally agreed to sell his electric guitar that he never uses ... although he did pull a face when i said the money would be used for debt repayments!!!
Just sneaking on here in between house**** and playing woohoo ... am slowly amassing the starts so maybe I'll be able to cash in a few amazon vouchers ... must get writing on dooyoo again ... they were fab for amazon vouchers (i never took the cash option just used the vouchers ... got loads of dvds for the kids that way)
