    Hi Everyone.

    It is payday today.

    I have big debt news.

    I have rounded down my long term debt to OH, I have paid enough to bring Mr L CC to under £1200 and I have paid £80 to my overdraft meaning for the first time in 9 years I DON'T HAVE AN OVERDRAFT!

    So the total payments today - which don't include a payment to a CC I can't make just yet - mean this is my total:

    #53 debt paid off = £3089.31/£3000

    I have met my target and I still have 2 months to go, ya hoo!
    Debt Free Stage 1 - Completed 27/08/2020
    Debt Free Stage 2 - Completed 50/181 Payments

    I'm so tempted to just throw everything at this, but it is coming into summer here, and I received the DD's school fees (not private). I spoke to OH and I think that we will aim to have it paid off by Easter, a lot earlier than we planned anyway.

    Morning everyone! I've been AWOL on holiday for 3.5 weeks but finally getting back to normal and checking in!

    #006 checking in with £16585.33/14,539.71 please muppets :D
    Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭
