Hi, never spoken to you before but have read lots of your posts ... :rolleyes: and just noticed that even though you are feeling fed up you are still making time to help other posters. Where you've been makes you who you are, I guess, and if we all had the benefit of hindsight...well maybe we'd be on here making critical posts about people who got themselves into a mess and are trying hard to get out of it....so maybe it's not a bad thing after all
Oh ignore me, no work tomorrow...cheap bottle of wine

Thanks wyebird.

Thats really nice of you. :kisses3: (you are female, right? :eek: ) :rotfl:

I guess I'm just not gonna be happy until I'm where I want to be! :undecided

wyebird

Yeah, I was last time I looked :question:

I know, sometimes (often) I think about where I "should be" if I had made more sensible decisions...but I didn't and I'm here and it could be hell of alot worse. I don't need that large mortgage free house and three holidays a year do I? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Like you SS I often think i'll only be happy when I get to where I think I want or should be. But recently I've come to the realisation that where I want to be just keeps moving further and further away:mad:

I'm trying a new philosophy - enjoy the jouney cos the destination might not be all it's cracked up to be!

I think you are doing a great job in inspiring and supporting others - If you didn't have any debt you would never have had that oppertunity.

God I'm depressing myself!!!!!!

Anyone else still kicking themselves for getting into debt? :wall:

Every day. Don't think I'll ever stop

Well I've just paid £500 off my Capital One card with my A&L 0% overdraft. The Cap One interest is 16.9% and I'm paying about £25 a month in interest so wanna get rid of this as soon as and by doing this will mean a month earlier so I reckon I'll save about £20 odd in interest! :T

Not long until payday when I reckon I can pay another £400 off the Capital One card so only about £650 to go! :dance:

You really are doing sooo well.

You started off with a debt similar to the amount of mine, yet you lot will be long gone by the time I'm in your position :rolleyes:

Mrs_Sparkle

SS you're doing so well. I remember when your debt was a similar size to mine but you've raced ahead hun. You'll be debt-free in a couple of years at the most and you still have YEARS ahead of you to enjoy all that debt-freeness.
