    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Hey GG,

    all is well in El land ... just not much happening lol, been doing some research on sugar addiction and trying to find the right way of eating for me as i am craving sugar like crazy, but so far i am able to fight it, just dont know how long that will last, so trying to sort it before i find myself stuck at the bottom of a sugar well lol

    also been reading and learning a wee bit of stuff on unit trusts etc ... very interesting stuff but deff something i dont want to rush into as it is best handled with care :)

    went out for a walk with mr el today, they have opened back up a walk that was closed due to a land slip, it was great to see it open, and we got to the stairs of hell, usually i have to stop twice to catch my breath back as it is that steep, but today i managed it without stopping, was so proud of myself tbh

    thats about it though nothing else

    hope everyone is good

    el xx

    That's the TV license paid, the interest transferred the extra to the big mortgage paid and everything settled again till pay day... A quick 10 mins and all the excitement is done again lol

    I have observed though, if we continue to pay our debt off at the current speed, we will be debt free before the 100 month challenge is completed, that gives me satisfaction to think it may be possible ... If it turns out that this is indeed the case then we will spend the rest of the challenge boosting the savings/ cash flow
