  • Unfortunatly I cant do evening or shift work, i work for local goverment. My partner is in carsales and works very long hours and also works over a hour away so he gets in at 7.30 at night. I know im probably sounding hypocritical but i dont want to go back to work yet, i want as much time as i can with my baby untill i really have to go back (july). We cant afford to put her in childcare fulltime so will be returning part time (3 days a week) so mil and my mum can have her 1 day and nursery the other.

  • You have done so well already, and obviously really committed to becoming debt free. You will get there in the end with that attitude, but until then dont beat yourself up about it. Your little girl will grow so fast and you really dont want to miss out on that, slowly keep plugging away at your debt and eventually it will be gone.
    Put simply you could clear it faster but miss out on your babys first years. You never get those first years back.
    Anyway, well done on what you have achieved so far... BRILLIANT!
