    I like what Hypno said, and I like what DT said, and urg, and lucielle - and am with everyone else too in wishing you joy at finding more of a life, and less of sitting at home in front of the computer. Our own patterns of use, even of this forum, need to change, its true - I've been ruminating about it myself. But if people who are debt free are role models, then you're a role model too, Taxi, of what people can go through and come out the other side.

    Thats not enough to stay here on its own, even so - but to keep yourself on track with your recovery, or building savings, or having adventures, then this is the place! :)

    that sounds brilliant idea the new adventures, - start a new chapter, even if its once a week to say you've done the accounts, or a month later when you've got that gold award from the weight loss (you can tell who doesn't do weight loss classes)
    Totally see where your coming from and agree the net takes up a large part, your a special lady, and yes you've come such a long way, u take care xx

    WISE WORDS AS USUAL...I guess you're right it's about getting the balance right.I just feel that I don't have much to contribute anymore especially as I don't have to stick to budgets or anything.
    Perhaps I can keep it going just updating on my adventures ..when I have a life.

    Morning everyone..am thinking about letting my diary go as don't really have much to say anymore.I spend too much time on the internet and want to spend my time more productively.
    I plan to spend time going to the gym,doing my garden,time with the family,sorting my house out etc etc.

    I will still pop on and see how you're all doing sometimes.

    Thank you to each and every one of you that have helped me on my debt free journey and those that have been around for my cancer journey.Don't know what I'd have done without you all.xxx

    Hi Taxi,

    I understand you wanting to move on with life, but it would be lovely if you posted occasionally just to say hi. I know we don't know each other really, but it feels as though we do and it would be nice to hear that you are doing well - a bit like that friend you don't hear off for ages, then get a phone call out of the blue! :)

    Do what you have to, though, but we won't forget you.

    Big vinegary hugs,

    Pickle
    :)
    Please call me 'Pickle'
