    Payday!!

    Have just paid off £895 to clear one credit card which I can now close and £150 off my other one.

    Really happy that I'm making good progress and not getting sidetracked and spending on myself.

    Keep going everyone else on here. It's worth it.

    So I'm now at £4095 / £6000

    Over two thirds of the way there!

    Back from Lanzarote! Lovely time. Managed to put only some petrol on the credit card, otherwise we made our cash last. Good work.

    And back with £100 payment to Capital one. Nearly killed that card now - next couple of weeks!

    No 36 reporting 21.00 pad so now owe 2776/31943 and paid 13800/10000 in 2012.

    For anyone who can remember earlier on this year and my bone cancer diagnosis I have been doing really well since my op. I have got my first surveillance scan on Thurs and now feel sick with what is called scanxiety apparently.....Im sure it will be fine mind you but still feel rotten!!Good thing tho is that it has really focused my mind on getting rid of my debt!!Every cloud and all that....
    Anyway have a lovely healthy Sunday all!!

    Thanks Sarah, I've been ill with [STRIKE]morning[/STRIKE] all day sickness, so pretty rough and hoping it clears up soon. I'm 10+5 now, so still early days. I've got my scan in a couple of weeks. How about you?
