    As of now I am having to cut down on my OP's.
    I can no longer afford to make them.
    I am going back to just about my contractural payment :(
    It is what it is.
    That is okay Beanie. When you are in a position to restart them you will. I had times when I could only pay the contractual amount on my debt too. I still made progress as I restarted when I could.

    Happy Christmas and thanks for your support all year long :)
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
