Hi all,
Sorry to interrupt the baby talk - I still have a lot of posts to catch up with too!
But.... clears throat... after my second successful ppi claim I am now
DEBT FREE!!!!
I feel so weird but really proud of myself. In a few years I have gone from just over 23K to 0! I've been working really hard so it's such a relief
I need to set myself a savings target now and figure out how to motivate myself to do that - I need a house deposit :rotfl:
I'll catch up on the posts later, I'm too hyper just now :rotfl:

There will be lots more of one of these colours in my house around the time this Challenge ends....
Yes, this doddery old woman is expecting again (No 6)...
It has taken me a while to get used to the idea.
Told DH the news today, so he has this dazed look plastered on his face. We won't tell the other children or my manager at work just yet... First doctor visit on Wednesday.
Anyway in the month I have been off-air, throwing up my breakfast with my new BFF, the porcelain goddess, I managed to pay some more towards this debt. In case I haven't said it lately 'THANK GOD' for this forum. If I was still at my original debt level and 'in the family way' too, then I would be really in Queer Street!
Canucksfan #249 - another $1k paid off. $15300/$17418.95 :happylove
More congratulations!!!! :j:j:j:j:j:j:j

Well, another DD for the credit card gone through and put a little more money aside towards paying off the loan. May have some additional money coming in on payday that could help me pay off the car loan this month. That'd make a massive difference!DFW - DEBT FREEEEEE!
