    So I had been hoping to put more towards the challenge this month, but I have some expensive dentistry to get taken care of so it doesnt look like I'll be able to put anything else aside until next month. Oh well...

    I only just started the 10k in 2010 challenge a couple of weeks ago but i'm excited to see how much i've saved by the end of the month. It might not be a huge amount but anything is progress and i'll be excited to see the total grow over coming months. I'm still getting into the swing of putting money aside but hopefully when i see the money i'm saving it will encourage me to save even more! :j

    Well, this month's gone from bad to ridiculus on the money front so I've decided to bury my head in the sand until pay day and then start fresh... I'm convinced the universe is trying to make my life impossible but I'm trying to concentrate on watching my loan go down at the moment. Only 2y6m to go and then the worse is over!

    My month is going better - paid £500 off one of the credit card, plus a car loan payment came out. All in all, we have paid over £5 and we are now under the £13k mark - hurrah!

    Seeing it as £12xxx is soothing to the soul :grin:

    Keep posting :)
