Just found my 'aims for 2009' list. They were
Pay off debt Done!
Have 10k in savings by Christmas On track to have £8,500. Would have had £9,500 but paid the venue deposit (wasn't planning to get married!), anything I make towards the rings will also count to this so I should manage this one.
Go on holiday abroad Done
Devote 10 hours a week to creative projects Usually manage about this
Join a gym and go twice a week. I joined, I went a lot for 4 months, and haven't been at all since!

Wow - just wanted to say well done and what a lovely story
Good luck on the challenges!

Sorry I am late - I have to stop off home on my way and have a shower after all the work needed in the other thread.

Dinah - I got it cleaned up, emptied the fridge, cut the grass and took the rubbish out. The estate agents came round and said it was worth less. I took the furniture to the chairty shop since I thought you would not want the old stuff. I have taken the lightbulbs.

Tete - Ban news - Cake! There was an accident! I ate the lot all the hard work tidying up make me hungry!

<Checks out new place and looks in fridge> Any body been shopping yet as the fridge is empty!

Take your feet off my shiny new table! I'm picturing our threads like the big brother house, big makeover and shiny new bling everytime they start a new series.

I bought a slightly battered packet of Jammy Dodgers from the old thread with me, but I think that's it.

Dinah - I like the Big Brother house idea! :rotfl:

Interesting list Dinah! LOL at the 'private outdoor' one! I have a 101 list - crossing some things off out here but some home-based.

It's so impressive you have paid off all that debt AND managed to save £8,500 this year :T Are you managing to save £1000 a month between your two salaries? *puts thinking cap for our future situation*

lol at couscous snack Tete, shame they're not available here I have to admit the last couple of days I haven't eaten so well (not bad just not enough) and fruit and veg is tricky here but will try and up it a bit. Just went to have some juice but it's gone mouldy (no fridge) :eek: And I've been saving that from OH too (he's a jiuce monster) :rotfl:

:eek: I hope we don't turn into the usual residents though! My mistake Poolie, I thought your feet were on the table too but was too polite to mention it :whistle:

Promise the outdoor one isn't what you think - done that hundreds of times!

Yep £1000 a month between the two, which is more than NIM earns, so we live off £1585ish between the two of us.
