Hi Muppets...thank you for your lovely words....

So I'd like to set a Target of £2850 in total for the Year... might not be a huge amount but it's what is realistic for me with stretching myself a little...
Thanks...Let's make this next Year a MUCH better one for all of us xXx

Afternoon parsniphead and welcome back, you are number 22. I remember you from the 2015 threadparsniphead wrote: »Hi muppets
I would love to rejoin this thread.
I didn't join the 2016 thread for a number of reasons which have lead to a year of hell, but I have joined a number of the previous ones. It's such a supportive thread and a fab way to keep motivated.
On the 2015 thread I was a couple of hundred away from being debt free, then two months from the end Payplan adjusted my figures and the amount left to pay went up by £2500. I was gutted but paid it off. Then I took my eye off the ball, wad made redundant, got a poor paying job and had to deal with a poorly DH and I'm ashamed to say the debt has risen to £7148.39...........
It's going in 2017, no excuses. I need to be here though on my favorite thread. Can I come back please?

Thanks Px

Afternoon Helen, thanks for the update. You target has got to be realistic for you, there is no point in setting a target that you know you would never manage to achieve. I have just read your latest news, i am so sorry for your loss. Next year has got to be 100% better for your. xxDreamerHelen wrote: »Hi Muppets...thank you for your lovely words....

Hi,
I would love to join in please. I don't have a huge amount of debt, but it does seem to have crept up this year, so I would like to tackle it before it spirals.
I have am going to look to clear the 6 small debts totalling £2604.53 first. That will leave me 1 debt of £1177 and 2 debts of the husband totalling roughly £3000.
Please put me down for £2604.53 for 2017Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
Nothing is going to get better. It's not.0 -
Please put me down for £3803.55 which is the rest of my student finance overpayment and the final credit card (0% luckily).
Have more debt but this is block 1 of 3!Money money money.
