My journey to a debt free life

There is maybe hope I may one day own a horse of my own then? 😂 I swore I would own one by 25. Nearly 20yrs on still haven't managed it. Not ridden properly since I was pg with the girl 17yrs ago either. One day, maybe.Debt free Feb 2021 🎉2

So today has been a very relaxed affair. I got up and had breakfast before taking B out for a walk and basically I've just been lounging around doing not a lot all day, I have managed to get two loads of washing done, one load is out on the line being intermittently rained on and the other is hanging over the stairs, it's a duvet cover so it will dry fairly quickly there.
I also cleaned the 🐓🐓 out and had a quick tidy of the kitchen.
I sat and had a chat with DD 2 for a bit then I've spent the rest of my time chatting to people in the new riding group I've joined on FB. I'm feeling inspired to really get things sorted out with the house so I can save for a horse 😀 it probably won't happen any time soon but I refuse to give up hope and will plan accordingly, I will have to just make the most of riding at the stables every other week for now, of course if I gave that up I could save the money but I really miss going and would like to get back to it now
Im working tomorrow but get an extra half an hour in bed because I'm getting a lift to work, I'm hoping for a nice day again
I was thinking of doing some garden jobs today but it keeps raining so I've given up on that and will just chill out instead 😊Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8946 -

Off to work in a bit but I've woken up feeling rubbish, I feel like I've been run over by a truck and just want to go back to bed 😟it's a good job I'm not on a long day today!
Yesterday I went to visit my friend because it was her birthday, we had a lovely catch up 😊 . While I was over that side of the town I thought I would pop in and see my Mum and Dad, I haven't seen them for several weeks , they were both ok but a bit fed up with the ongoing situation. I suggested to my mum that maybe we could meet for a coffee soon when the weather cheers up again,we can buy take away and sit outside near the Cathedral 😊Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8945 -
Those horses are gorgeous.
I like your plan to get one again. It is never too late!
I hope your mum can make it. I think itll be lovely for you both to get out.
Sorry you're not feeling so good. Hope you're feeling better soon xoxoSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330

Just popping in before bed. I've not got much to report to be honest. I'm still not feeling too good😟I had to leave work early yesterday and go to bed, I was in so much pain I didn't know what to do apart from curl up under my duvet. I haven't done much today apart from some washing. I'm working a long day tomorrow so I'm hoping when I wake up things will have improved🤞🤞🤞I have two days off after tomorrow so I'm looking forward to thatOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8944
