  • Come on wee Lassie you can do it. You WILL do it, I have faith in you. I'm gonna really miss you when I am debt free. What will you do with yourself then? Mortgage free wannabe? I missed your first ever thread and I see two years ago you were on £61k then, so is that your next target?

    Happy new diary F_F

    Now you can see that the light at the end of the tunnel isn't a train, but real sunshine!!

    In all seriousness, have to say how impressive your achievements so far are - not only have you paid off most of your debt, you've continued to have a social life & have the occasional budgeted treat - have said it before, but will say it again as it is so very true

    :T:jYou are an inspiration:j:T
    I do not make mistakes, I learn lessons.
    I work to live, not live to work.
    I love to live & live to love.
    Good enough is exactly that.

    You don't think you're getting rid of me do you?! I'm on your FB now :D I fully plan to wangle a visit in your general direction once I start my new job!

    Honestly, I don't know what I will do when I'm debt free. I'm going to be £130 per month better off, which I would like to think will give me a more comfortable standard of living, but I know it will more likely be a cushion for when mortgage rates go up again. I wouldn't be this close to debt freedom if it weren't for my staff mortgage...:o I suspect I will become a MFW, but I won't be as concerned about little spends as I am at the moment.

    One thing is for sure, I will be buying more shoes :D

    Thanks for all the Happy New Diary thoughts guys :T

    Today Mr Fresian and his sister are off to a family wedding, so I have the house to myself until tomorrow. I have assorted plans, but the real Things To Do are:

    • [STRIKE]Wash bedclothes[/STRIKE]
    • Wash general clothes
    • Clean bathroom
    • Tidy away Washing Mountain (Clean clothes to be tidied)
    • Dishes
    • Sort out Massive Eyebrows :o
    • Dye hair
    • Sort out anything that is going on Ebay on the next free listing day
    • Bag things for charity shop
    • WATCH DOCTOR WHO!!!!! *squee*
    I also have my usual round of comping to do, which I'm going to do in between everything else, and in addition to all this I have to go to the supermarket. Sheesh! I think I'm going to get the bus to Aldi and see what they have in the way of cheap veg and so on. It's not going to be until this afternoon anyway as I have to dye my hair before I leave the house :D

    What's everyone else up to?

    Morning missus

    Like you - wash bedding is on the list as tomorrow is supposed to be the hottest day so far & DH is off so I want no work to do tomorrow
    Waiting for postie to come so I can see if there are any more bills to be paid off (sad - I know)
    Then off to shops as neighbouring village is having a street fayre & I don't want caught up in traffic

    The rest - will see what mood takes me

    Have a good one F-F
