    Cheers Ruthy & TH, yep just relaxing and watching sport on TV :) Quite happy feeling today and did a bit of gym, 40 mins cross trainer, so felt good about that. Nutrition has been good last two days as well!
    Debt paid off: £19,999 Debt remaining: NONE!!:money::eek::):j:j:j:j:j:j
  • Happy Birthday BrandNewStart! I'm glad you're feeling a bit more positive today. Depression is so horrible - just like a black hole that you can't get out of - I've been there too so I really sympathise *hugs*.

    Jemma - thanks for your support :). As this month DH has been paid half by his old company and half by his new company, we won't know until pay day in June how much he will get for a full month. But then we can work out what we can afford to pay in debt payments bearing in mind increased travel costs and lower salary. Hopefully we can still pay off by year end but if not, early next year :).

    I think Jemma is probably laying down in a darkened room after the epic post yesterday :rotfl:

    Sorry to hear that you've had problems recently, hope everything is okay.
