    I have a diary Karenut, I think more people read it than I realise/ It's great for keeping my on track and leeting me rant - and it was especially good for me when I was off woth depression - just getting the stress all out there and realising it's not just me, was extremely useful.

    You don't just get my debt-busting tales though. I'm afraid being concise isn't always my favourit thing to be so you you also hear about other random things going on in my life ;).

    I'd definitely recommend it!

    Thanks Niccatw, will give it a try - its just knowing where to start thats the problem!! :) xx

    Hmm.... I'm still stuck on 4. I was having a horrible day yesterday so I caved and bought a bottle of wine so I could have a small glass (turned into 2 large glasses :eek:) when the children had gone to bed.

    And now today I've just called in at the shop and bought some bread!:( Pah, I really need to focus as I still have 11 NSD's to go to reach my target.

    Well done on reaching your target cw18 :T

    slowlyfading, sorry to hear you're feeling down (((hugs)))

    Spoon, thanks for all the encouragement and well done on reaching 14! Hope today is a better day than yesterday for you.

    Happy Tuesday everyone,

    Morning All
    as predicted no NSD yesterday but have hopes to-day however coughed all night and didn't fall asleep until around 6.00am and then didn't wake up until 9.30am!!!! Good job I'm the boss! So way behind and running around like a headless chicken.

    Oh dear, littlekel... fail.... I hope BigMumma doesn't see that.
    You're doing brilliantly to get any NSDs at all - there is just so much temptation around us to spend money. As long as this challenge makes you think about spending money and hopefully getting more organised, then you've achieved something.
    Chin up and keep going, we're here to support you.

    I'm declaring two for the weekend just gone, I was hoping for yesterday but, errr well I got side tracked and popped to Asda, but I did do all the shopping needed instead of going in dribs and drabs.

    Oooh I can declare for today too.. So that's 3 NSD's on top of my total :) I think I am going to make it..yay!!!

    Well done to those that are on track, hugs for those that are falling by the wayside so to speak!
    Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17
