No we are not, you are right. Not sure I am losing focus, just bored with myself droning on and on about the same ole thing.
Will remotivate myself to get 'into the groove'.
Plus, its that great middle of the month thing..........I hate this time, no money and two weeks to go.
MSE - NSD today, thats the third this week but you know what I haven't noticed the financial benefit of not smoking whatsoever. How did I ever afford it?
Neices coming for weekend, they are ok as no need to 'clean' for them! But I will now be like you folks with kids, have to find 'free' stuff to do and of course will be bring a picnic to whereever we end up!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

the middle of the month is a real killer isn't it? we've gone through the highs of paying things off and now we have to 'survive' until payday. Wish i was paid weekly sometimes, i'm sure you feel 'richer' when you're paid weekly as you're only short of money for the odd day, not for two whole weeks.0

I would love to be weekly paid, you would feel like you were making lots of progress if you could make payments every week.LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

You mean there is a life away from the laptop?

Hypno - the only life I could mean is ironing, washing, cleaning, walking dogs - things I thought were morally wrong to do in the dark and now have no excuse!1st debt - Next [STRIKE]£583.32[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£408.71 [/STRIKE] £0 :j

Personally, I think it is fundamentally wrong to do those things at any time of the year.
