Frustrating day with a winner of one of my Ebay auctions holding off on making payment - largest amount of all my finished auctions too. Grrr. Found a penny of roadkill which I always love and will drop it into my sealed pot. Tomorrow I should be able to see the payment to my line of credit hit that account (it takes a few days in the US).....and see if I have a few more pennies (literally) to clear it. But regardless, tomorrow I should be able to take the total of my debt down in my signature and I really can't wait for that!

I have started to read 'The Secret' tonight. I have wanted to read it for a while but never could the time be better than now! I know the law of attraction works - I have acknowledged it in my own life a few times but I haven't been putting it into practice as much as I could have recently. So, piling on the positivity now.....which will probably scare my team at work who only yesterday declared my happy bubble unbreakable!
Looking forward to the future and being financially secure - setting my sights on that, not the debt. The debt will be taken care of as I increase my income, pay it off, and start to accumulate a good savings account. Onwards and upwards....heading for the stars! Positive thoughts, no matter how tough it gets. POSITIVE!!! :T

Oooo nothing like a good book. I've got a huge list on my amazon wish list but trying to hold out as I don't want to spend! Going to ask for loads of kindle vouchers for Xmas!
I've not sent the coins off yet but they sent me an email with what I need to do. If you gave over 1kg of coins they will collect them for free, anything under and you need to send it royal mail at your own expense. Just need to get mine packed up and weighed.
Send some of that positive energy my way please! Xxx0 -
Hiya wegle! Positive vibes heading your way......:) I am loving the book. It is everything I already believe but to the extreme. Pop it on your Christmas list - you won't regret it!
Best of luck to you with your coins. I stumbled across €15 in notes so am going to trade those in at the weekend. I have a chunk of Euro coins but I think I'm going to offer them to friends at a good rate. I also have a chunk of USD coins but I know someone who works on a US base so will see if they will buy them from me also. I hope you get a good return but anything is better than the coins sitting uselessly in a drawer.
I am going to have a great day in the office (I am lucky to enjoy my job and the people I work with) and then I am going to come home and make myself some money on EBay....yes I am!Wishing a wonderful day to everyone of you! X

Having a job you love makes such a difference. I enjoy my job, and love the people I work with but it's hard work, and I'm studying as well at the moment (1 more year to go!!), so I have to cram all my work into 4 days. Still It's fairly well paid and it's local so it keeps me happy.
I'm loving the eBay enthusiasm!! :j:j Go! And make your fortune!!!0 -
Hi There, I hope you don't mind me Subscribing.....I think you're very inspirational!!
Keep Going hun...you can do it!!0 -
Oh wow! Thank you DreamerHelen and you are most welcome to tag along for the ride. It's lovely to make new friends!
Wegle, the fortune is slow but I've made a lot of money on EBay over the years.....unfortunately I seem to have spent most of it! No more!
Happy day for me as the EBay payment I was waiting on came through and someone has bid on another auction so that will go for sure....yay! Payment hit my line of credit and I have now paid off that account!!! YES!!! Have to write to them to close it so you can believe me when I say I am on it this evening! I've had that account for 15 years - very happy it is gone.
This meant I could officially reduce my debt figure in my signature and I'll be able to do that again tomorrow when two more payments hit their accounts. Should take me under $21k! *HOK3Y does a jig*Credit Card Freedom gained 14 Feb 2014!!Total Debt Freedom gained 29 Apr 2014!!Savings goal 30/9/23: £72,000/£538,001.....yes I'm serious!Total Debt August 2013: [STRIKE]$21,587[/STRIKE] April 2014: $0!!!!:j0 -

Thank you DH! I am feeling chuffed with myself for poaching a massive empty coffee container from work which will become my mega sealed pot for next year. The little things are so important for the mental boosts.
Looking forward to later today and taking my debt down some more......man that is going to be a good feeling! Under $20k will be even better but that's at the end of this month or the beginning of next. Happy day for me and hopefully a happy day for all the DFWs on our way to freeeeeeeedom!Credit Card Freedom gained 14 Feb 2014!!Total Debt Freedom gained 29 Apr 2014!!Savings goal 30/9/23: £72,000/£538,001.....yes I'm serious!Total Debt August 2013: [STRIKE]$21,587[/STRIKE] April 2014: $0!!!!:j0 -

Hey Hok3y!!!
eek! I remember when I went under 20 k!! It's a great feeling and to tell the truth any time i see that total dropping down I get the same feeling - Imagine one day soon having that final payment left and then OMG!!! No more payments!!! It makes me get butterflies even thinking about it!!
Keep on pushing those numbers down - it's the countdown to the future!!!*
