Morning all,
#006 checking in with £2093.22/£10000 please muppets
I was hoping this would be the year I am DF, but we had to buy a new car after ours had a bit of a fit and needed £1k of work - that's what it was worth!! Got a very low interest rate loan but still quite upset about the additional debt monies
I won't increase my target for this year yet as we have quite a lot going on so need to be sensible but I'll be here next year too! 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 😭0 -
