Debt free in 1,000 days.......

Hi everyone
I know that I have had more than my fair share of diaries
. However, due to slipping off the DFW wagon again, I need a challenge to focus my energy on clearing my debts.
I have 10 debts and will therefore clear one every 100 days until I am debt free. I will do this in order of the size of the debt - smallest to largest. Easy in the beginning I know, but I am hoping to clear my smallers debts in less than 100 days and then add that accumulated time onto the other debts.
So my challenge runs from 1st October 2009 to 27th June 2012.
My first debt to clear is my Barclaycard with £175 on it. Needs to be cleared by 9th January 2010 (scary that 100 days from now, we will be in a new year :eek:).
Please please please can I ask my readers to harrass me with numerous PMs and posts on here if I don't post for a few days. I am a nightmare for not posting on my diary and then slipping out of the DFW habit for a while. I really want to complete this challenge so I can stop worrying about my debts.
Thanks for reading. Will post more later.

I wasn't sure if my post made any sense when I woke up this morning. I was so tired last night when I wrote it. I went to see the Paul O'Grady show with my friend yesterday so was tired from travelling.
It was really good, saw Olivia Newton John and Nelly Furtado. Paul is really funny, even during the ad breaks. It was a great day out and I only had to pay £2 for the coach, £9 for my meal and £5 for a tube ticket. Bargain!!
Anyway, off work for the rest of the week but have got 1 mystery shop today, 4 tomorrow and 2 on Saturday. Will earn about £80 from them.
Going to get started on AQA early this month and stick to it.
Have a good day everyone

Not a bad first day. Did my mystery shop and got some free batteries too. I have also done my 100 questions on AQA for the day.
I'm going to see if my luck is in on BP before going to bed.
Night everyone
