    WOW you are doing so well with your payments, you have paid so much. Think of the little targets and aim for those as otherwise you can't see the wood for the trees.

    Hope your family are doing well, I swear its this year. It seems like one good thing two bad ones! But with your debt reductions ticking over nicely you can concentrate on looking after the people closest too you.

    Morning all :D:D:D

    Mum had a good night last night :D She has the appointment tomorrow with a specialist to look more specifically at everything and has tests to go through. So far today then so good.

    Thank you all for your comment and also for delurking :D please feel free to stay!

    This morning I am busy but trying to take my mind away from worrying so thinking about the new venture. Lots of research to do there and starting off with website design for sales of goods. I'd love a farm shop attached to the new benture but passing sales won't keep it ticking over so it will also need to be internet based.

    First things first....make a list. A top level plan of what I would like to do. My DF journey is the planning time so I will be using it wisely.

    I am hoping that as I am getting a 0% (small limit) card now that will bring my DFD closer - on paper it does but we all know how life doesn't like following the paper!

    How is everyone today? It's raining again here. I was reading the riot protection thread on the OS boards last night - scary stuff - what is the world coming to.

    Glad your mum had a good night.
    Good luck with your top level plan and lists. Lists are great :D I love making lists even if I then ignore them :rotfl:
    Cloudy here, rain promised at some point. Some minor trouble here last night but nothing compared to most places.
    Enjoy making your plans. Do let us know what they are xx

    This made me laugh out loud as I have so many lists with lists and a collection of lists that are still to be done (ie ignored!)

  • Well done and a huge pat on the back for what you have repaid!

    Good idea doing your high level planning now.

    I am a victim of the unfinished list plague too, when will the madness end?
    Trying to shift that debt!
  • Another list junkie over here! I knew things had got out of hand when I had a list of the lists that I'd listed somewhere :rotfl:

    Glad your mum had a good night - enjoy your planning!
  • Aw I love lists....have lists for lists too. Start to panic when I go anywhere without my list or when it gets lost at the bottom of my bag, am always looking for a yellow post it and half the time its the one I wrote a couple of weeks ago.

    Great news about your mum, let me know how her tests go.
