    Kerri - I can send you mine if you like? It's pretty simple but useful.

    Hugs to all of you who have suffered a loss.

    Well done to those who have managed to pay some debt.

    I've just been to Boot Camp and am spending the afternoon on the sofa with Downton Abbey after a weekend away. Not sure how i'm going to be able to get some debt paid off as I'm hardly working at the moment, but hopefully it'll pick up soon!

    Have sent it across... mine is really simple, but sometimes that's the best way to keep track of everything :)

    I am going to make February my 'emergency fund month' and try and pay as much as I possibly can into my rainy day account. If I can get £400 paid off in Feb I will be happy.

    We had a big talk about decided
    - Paying car insurance off in full isn't completely necessary - it will be at most £45 a month. Not paying it off in full means we can...
    - Save that money we had budgeted for car insurance, and pay off the DMP
    - Which in turn frees up £100 a month, which can be used towards other debts, and eventually pay off the car insurance.

    Seems like a better idea and means we will be debt free quicker. (or we will feel like we are achieving more)

    Excited! I listed 5 things on fleabay yesterday, and have watchers on 2 of them - I hope they bid!

    Not heard a peep from Ms no show, so reckon she's never going to show. I'll send an email tonight and tell her she has 24 hours...

    3 days to pay day, and I'm looking forward to it!
