Thats another fine mess I got myself into

No that will happen and sooner than we think (well thats part of my dream)

It does however seem that once you clear debt you become a MFW and then I don't know what!

Today I was thinking that if we are debt free in 2/3 years, we could be mortgage free in another 10. I would be 55 and have no mortgage and considering we only got this mortgage when I was 38, that would be so cool but hey, back to baby steps for now.

I was also thinking about my credit rating which is by now pants, and then I remembered no credit ever again, dont have the pennies dont buy the goods!

Herewego

The way your going that debt will soon be history, well done on MM and ebay didnt take long to makesome extra cash.
You are sounding much more positive than yesterday hopefully we have our RED back fighting fit, the occaional wobble does us good sometimes as we can reflect on how far we have come or even where we could have been if we hadn't had our LBM. I often forget how bad it was at the start with the sleepless nights and fear of the post arriving.

Now isn't that funny - you posted just as I was looking at snowball and specifically Ricardo! According to it I will be down to owing him £2998 in Feb 2011, currently £3400.

Now I am still convincing myself that I have to build up a 'surplus' (also known as reducing o/d) in business account between Sept and Jan but my mini goal is to get Ricardo down to £2999 by 31.12.10 because I will NOT owe him £3000 in any part of 2011.

So while I have to 'wait' to start throwing extra at personal debt, this will be a good mini goal to keep me going

I love the post coming but still just when phone rings!

Ouch ouch ouch! But they will grow back - when I did the marathon I lost several toe nails - had manky feet for a while, and painted on pretend toe nails (!) but within a few months they were back to normal......until the next time!

Good news on the miracle £20 though - and good for you for enjoying chips......yum yum yum!

Can I really get an acrylic nail over top of nothing as it were - that would be good because its going to be ugly

IS there a chance it wont grow back?

Yes, a sculpted acrylic can be put over it, but it will take a bit of time to see whether or not it will grow back or not. If the trauma is too great, it won't, but it might just be one big fat knock and it might. Be nice to your feet in the meantime and don't let it get knocked again in order to stand the best chance of it regrowing.

Cant leave silver bags out as DH loots them frequently. Right now can't afford to save £1 but someday I will!

I know that feeling: I see all the people saving £1 or £2 coins and I think 'That's not spare change - that's actually quite a lot of cash!' :rotfl:

I still feel physically sick! It is starting to throb again badly but that is to be expected.

I, as per direction from NHS Direct, cleaned both and stuck a plaster on. They said that the nail thats hanging by a thread will fall off but to keep plaster on so I dont rip it off

Work is not looking good for tomorrow which is pants but still cant put any weight on my toes, three of which are badly bruised

YUCK!

My SIL does not pay with anything with coins, just paper money! She throws all coins in a tin and pays her caravan fees with the coins each year - about £1500 :eek:

Nice if you can support that lifestyle, I guess. Here's to us being able to do that sometime soon! :beer:

And Reddie....what the hell did you do with that hoover to get in such a state? Did you drop the heavy bit on your foot, you poor dear?! x

I was wearing flip flops and I think it fell on my foot, I really have no idea how I did it, but am I glad my toenails were short or else I would have ripped my leg off!

I am normally not at all squemish but this has taken me to another dimension!
