Right everyone, I've been mopey moperson for the last few days and have been really down about everything for some reason
.
I've decided that I'm going to take a couple of days off from everything, and then will get back to it with a vengeance.
That doesn't mean I'm not going to do *anything*, but I will only do it if I feel like it, and if it's not a chore. Just going to have a few days to myself.
I'll still be around, but just going to relax and get my debtbusting mojo back
Stopping and re-charging the batteries sounds good for the soul jwil. You take care of yourself - have a cuppa :coffee: - have a giggle :rotfl: and take the time to enjoy the important things in life xCC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -
Well done on clearing Target 1 :T:T:T:T I guess it's always going to be a bit of an anticlimax, but I'm sure you'll feel better soon.
You can pop me down for £1k, who knows if I'll get anywhere near thatI don't have a minimum payment for mine, but I did pay something yesterday, so I'll count that.
Have a good afternoon!
Ta jwil - £1000 it isCC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -

I already direct my debt-busting at one target - currently the Cap1 Credit card in my sig. As there is 896 left on that, I'll put that down as my target for March but I can tell you that barring miracles, there is not much chance of me achieving it. Still, any extra repayments will help and I LOVE the idea of breaking it down into little chunks.
I'm going to have a think about different money-raising chunks but meanwhile, count me in, DDFW.
Yeah peaceandfreedom - its good to have you with us :TCC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -

Haven't been on for a couple of days due to car problems...grrrrr...ah well it will get sorted. Glad to hear that you are taking a break. You need that as its impossible to keep thinking money constantly. Makes you ill if you are not careful. Enjoy the break.:)

I've just received a £5 amazon voucher. That was good timing as I'd just spent £5 voucher on a cable due to the fact I can't find mine :mad:
Got home to discover DH had got the fencing guy around for a quote. *sigh* It needs doing urgently but it's still money."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Unexpected contributions are always good! I'm shattered too so will be disappearing soon. Hmm, another not 7pm log off, I haven't done very well this week, oops!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".
