Yippee

I got paid yesterday and have enough to pay off the small balances on the overdraft and credit card and to stay in credit for the next month.

I've worked out what I want/need to spend this month and should have enough left at the end of the month to throw in the savings account to pay off loan/overpay mortgage/save for new bathroom.

Big huge thanks to all MSErs for help, advice and support. :kisses3: :D

    :T Well done Jessicamb, tying up loose ends and getting rid of the small stuff helps you focus more on the bigger picture, as well as giving you a much needed boost. Great stuff:T

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Paying off the little ones gives you that boost to keep going with the rest.
