Ah I'm back
Hawaii and New York were both equally AMAZING! I love them! I got home this morning and back to reality! Damn it's cold over here LOL - been having regular 31 degrees in both NY and Hawaii.

Nah, back this morning at 7am - OH went straight to work!!!! CRAZY! I'm at home and about to go for a nap! I'm shattered.
There's soooo much to tell, but the highlights are:
Hawaii was AMAZING and so hot and so sandy and perfect! The people were lovely, the beaches were lovely and ahhhhhh it was awesome!
New York was even better! I'd never been before and I fell in love with the place as soon as we got out the cab at the hotel! The people are incredibly helpful and friendly and there's nothing I could say about it that was bad! I have sooo many pictures, maybe when I've sorted them all out I will post a couple for you to see
Now I'm back I have to look at debt busting again - Egg card is going this month, and hopefully about £800 from the Loan, but need to crunch the numbers before I make any paymentsAdam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

Just sent off £700 to Egg to clear the balance after my monthly DD goes out in the week that should be it gone and I can finally close it. After I've taken a chunk out of my loan next week I will redo my snowball as I think I should have taken a big step in getting towards cutting that DFDAdam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...
