    Hi all,

    Never posted in this thread before but am feeling proud and positive of how organised I am for the start of 2012. :j

    Today I:
    Hung all washing up to dry instead of using the tumble dryer.
    Created a new spreadsheet of my finances for the year.
    Started a new DFW diary.

    Will be back again tomorrow. :D
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...

    Orange Fairy your game has inspired me so much - the world needs more people like you!

    Glad to hear I'm not the only person with too many so-so clothes and not not enough e-bay motivation.

    I think realistic goals that almost seem too easy are key. Maybe I'll just list one thing tomorrow!

    Night all!!
