I have managed to get my savings back up to £1,000 despite family needs meaning that I have to find an extra £414 a month outgoing at the moment.
I can do this!When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -

Hey guys, just popping in with an update. No major news, just been plodding along with paying off Mums money.
I have £1300 left to go (£1200 after the regular DD goes out on 1st) I have £400 tucked away so getting there slowly.
Once she's paid off I can concentrate on my EF savings.
