  • I was just thinking my vc will be paid this time next week so I will have my first whole debt cleared I'm trying to focus on that today as I'm feeling down about always being skint finding it hard today. I'm going to go for a walk later and clear my head and stop thinking about money.

  • My aim for august is to pay off £681 which will take below the £11000 mark I'm going to concentrate on my hp as its the highest interest and bring it right down. I have just defrosted the freezer and found a load of meat lurking at the bottom. Me and dd are having a spring clean day as I'm not working until Friday. Only one item sold on ebay for £3 so that's a start only £678 to find

  • I've made a payment to hp for £681 so I am now in under £11000 in debt. I will need to stick to a strict budget this month and there will be no mrgin for error but I think it will keep me focused on my final goal of becoming debt free once and for all.
