Hey, everything's going really well! Been so busy getting ready for Xmas and so busy at work trying to get everything wrapped up before I leave! What with Xmas I only have 11 days left in the office, spent the day at my new job today doing a handover which was great, really takes the apprehension out of the first day!
How are you? Hope everything's good.x0 -
When do you start?
I'm looking forward to seeing how much your debt is reduced by within a month. You seem to be doing really well
All good here, just plodding along

Hi. Just wanted to pop by and say well done for facing up to this. I started off with about £14k debt (and another 7k my husband had from his first marriage). It's now at £5.5k (and his is nearly gone I think). Telling my family was a huge help. They were able to get interest free cards to transfer big debt onto enabling me to clear them quickly. We're a single income home now so this last 5.5k is tough but I'm still at it.
Well done on the job. Don't increase anything bar your debt repayments and good luck!0 -
What a difference a month makes!
You have come so far in a short space of time and I'm glad to see how positive you are being about things. I'm sure you will be debt free in no time at all, but remember when things get a little tough you have the support of people here to pull you through.LBM: Dec 2012 - Debt £38,180/ Now £0.
