    So here we are in September. School uniform's bought. Kids back at school and nursery. Just finding my way again. Budget got mashed due to summer holidays.
    Now in the bracket of 23k to pay back. 3 months time and we will have paid off another 2 creditors. Hoping that I get a promotion soon (which is looking promising) and then I will increase payments. The end is creeping slowly into sight.

    Nearly the end of October, where has the year gone? Debt slowly creeping down. 5 months time and we will be below 20k. Having to search hard to to remain motivated at the minute, feels like we've been on this dmp forever. I suppose though the last 6 years have passed quite quickly and the next 4 will move just as quickly. Think I just need a boot up the proverbial!! L2B.x

    Got a job interview in January, hoping for promotion to be made permanent and then I will increase payments to put end in sight!!

    Christmas shopping completed on a budget and it feels good!
    Merry Christmas guys. Love L2B.xxx

    Happy new year!! 2 months left before we drop below 20k. Feel like I'm starting to see some real movement of our debts now! Had another debt drop off this month. Becoming a tad obsessed. L2B.x

    Thanks Kei. Interview date now pushed back to feb, but gives me time to prepare. So I'm seeing that as a bonus.
    Staying focused!! L2B.x

    So tomorrow knocks us down to 37 months till we are free of this debt. This countdown is helping me stay focused cos everything else is upside down at the moment.
    Life is fraught with challenges, so I am hoping that these things will make becoming debt free feel even the more sweeter.

    Time flies and I am starting to dream that we can acheive this in less time than we initially thought. L2B.x
