sorry have been a bit slack in my entries, have a new job so that has been eating up in my time but was going through the entries and am now committed to the cause. June has been a weird month so far but won't complain there is food in the fridge/ cupboards and I have not had to forsake my social life completely so looking on the positive. am about to amend my signature but my payments for may totalled. £855.00
hope everyone is doing well. coming to the halfway mark still feel like I am plodding along but the light is getting immensely brighter. :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:misselvis proud and in motion - dealing with her debts step by stepDFW #107
