:dance:Hi all...Getting there..£450 paid across this eve and I REALLY hope I can get below £11k by end of the week...thanks for all the support guys, and Piq..not a mojito or H@@bs shop in sight!!:D
Getting tricky with the repair bill that's for sure. Plus kids at home which means some more childcare and sundry stuff. Oh well...
Shattered today. Another long busy day...more of the same tomorrow..:eek:

Thanks Kerri..more repair bills so looking tense..
I really need to pay off my work CC which has some domestic stuff on it..at16% APR that's the priority so feel I need to do that first...will keep on doing the Tilly Tidies though. Will finish paying that off next week.
Feel disappointed but ho hum. Will see what I can scrimp and save and push across next week..
On a lighter note...spent £30 this week on DD1s new summer wardrobe from the local charity shops.. she is growing fast..and £1.50 on new jeans for me. So that was pretty MSE I thought...and currently having a glass of wine in the garden..hottest day of the year apparently. Blimey..but very nice :T. Tomatoes are ripening nicely..must raid the allotment again soon!
I also have to remember that 2 months ago the debt sat at £23k odd...so Rome wasn't built in a day!!

Wow Brizzle!! have you paid off nearly 12k in two months?? That is beyond awesome! :T:T:T Absolutely amazing.
Sometimes things crop up that have to be paid for, like these repairs. I don't think you should be too hard on yourself. I am in awe anywayxxx

Hi Breeze...thanks honey. Have to say £8k odd was from raiding savings bank accounts...but it does feel good. Main thing is that OH reckons he can fix the stuff that's wrong with our van..and more generally this debt is not just my secret anymore.
Will keep on plodding as the lovely beanielou says..and check in next week too as I am on hols but will need you gorgeous peeps to keep me on the straight and narrow!!!MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal

I will do a little woohoo dance in my lounge when I read you are under the 11k mark so that should be motivation enough
You are doing fabulously well and should be so pleased with yourself.
£1.50 on jeans! I am impressed! Our charity shops here are rubbish! We like in an area with the highest rate of OAPs in the country (i'm sure I read that somewhere) so a lot of our charity shops are filled with old people stuff!
