    Hello All! :)

    Hope you all had a great weekend. I'm not looking forward to the new working week I have to say.
    1.5 weeks until pay day. :(

    Just been catching up with my YNAB. Still have £500 in my bank, yay! A year ago I would have been completely smashed this close to pay day. Amazing how I've changed since then.

    I can't wait to get this debt cleared. I never want a loan or credit card again in my life after this. I am so looking forward to that outlook. I feel really calmed and really motivated by it. The thought of every thing I owe I paid for with my hard earned cash. No debts to finance companies, no cars I can't afford to run. Nothing but my own things that I bought outright with my own money. Life seems so simple. I really can't wait to embrace it. :D

    Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. :)

    Lambda, sounds like you've got it sussed :)

    Seriously, I think I do!

    I started paying my debts off at the start of November. But, I think my true LBM was over the Christmas period. I just suddenly understood that having credit is not the answer to anything. Ever since then I've been going through in my mind what a life would be without any credit whatsoever. It sounds bliss to me. That's what I'm aiming for! :):)
