    I think I am going to burst!!!!!! Checked my bank account this morning to find work has paid me £800. Surely a mistake as payday was last week..but Hubby had a similar payment so when we got to work he checked with the Accounts Guy and IT'S A SURPRISE BONUS!!!!! He didn't thnk anyone would notice until he brought the letters round later.

    It's enough to pay off the £716 left on my CC!!!!!!!!!!! I can become debt free today (apart from the trailing interest that'll be on my next CC statement) I could cry I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!

    Woo hoo well done! DF roll of honour to follow!! :j:j:j

    My shoebox gave me £100 in change!

    Wow I knew it was heavy but that's really cheered me up!
    I've just paid it of the card:T
    I've also decided to pay the remaining 200 with my savings so the card is done!

    I've been looking at my totals and I'm a bit out compared to my sig, so need to update

    my loan is currently at £10,617

    So outstanding debt is £10,617 which means ive actually paid £3383:o

    New total - #051 £3383/ £14000

    Fantastic to just have the loan, well done :j

    Right, I have a huge amount to report! You may have noticed that I've been a bit slack on here :o well, I've been going to bed early and drained of energy because I'm expecting again :) I am only 10 weeks, scan after the BH next week so not "official" yet but I thought I would come clean with you lovely lot to explain my lack of commenting on here :)

    We are possibly mad given our debt but...the other good news is DH has got a new job with more money so that will cover my loss of salary on Mat leave and we can still pay off the debts about £1k per month. :j:j:j

    So I am very sorry about being a bit crap on here! I have kept up with the spreadsheet so that's ready to upload but I feel so sick that I can't stay on the computer for long to chat it makes me feel queasy!

    Have a lovely weekend all, lots of :money: fun :T

    Wow I have my Mum here for 3 days and come back to some fantastic news.

    Congratulations newlywed on closing all those accounts.
    Congratulations his missus on being debt free, you must be sooooo chuffed. Can you call them about the trailing interest?

    and a MAHOOSIVE congratulations to Spagbol on the bubba and to Mr Spagbol on the job :D:D:D

    and as if that's not enough it's sunny here in Cardiff too :)

    For those of you that asked, I'm not 100% sure how to do the google+ thing, so I've put a google+ button on my website in one of the sidebars. It appears, from blogs I've read, that the more +1's you get the higher in a search you come. So if you'd like to +1 the website, search for Fabridashery :) thank you very much in advance xxx

    I'm getting on the free listing action this weekend, going to go through and see if I can use my phone to list the full 100 items, would be fantastic to see a whole load of boxes go again. My recent purchases of tshirts from ebay have been fab, but my spending is over now and it's time to really knuckle down to get rid of this debt or I'll never own a house!
