Slipping Through My Fingers

Don't worry and if you have cash, have budgeted for it and want to spend £9 on hot choc you do it! It's your life and no one here to judge.

I know what you mean though. I look at our spending on children's trips and think if I didn't have these trips we could clear the debt quicker.

You should definitely stay and not feel bad for being here.

As for spending £9 on hot chocolate don't feel guilty about posting that - everyone's on a different journey and at different points of it. Some spend over £9 a day on smoking. Some spend ££££'s on holidays etc and are still in debt and struggling but that's what they choose. You definitely shouldn't feel guilty for anything. You're on your path and if anyone doesn't like it then they don't need to read/reply.

If you genuinely don't want to keep your diary anymore I'll be sad but that's okay. However definitely don't let the difference between yours and someone else's diary make you feel guilty so you stop.

I love reading your updates. Even if i am rubbish at replying.

Thanks CG and WB - wise words from both of you and they've definitely helped me re-think some things. The biggest problem I have is judging myself and not wanting to offend anybody Maybe I will come out of retirement :rotfl: DD has given me some of the hot choc so if anybody is ever in the area you're welcome to drop in for very decadent but very tasty hot choc. xx

TF2 , WF sums it up so well. I read your diary and never has the though of you being a fraud entered my head. I enjoy reading about your pots, your caravan away time and anything else you write about. I do hope you keep on posting.

I hope we can persuade you to keep your diary going. I am no longer in debt so it is nice reading how you manage your money. Your away days and pots.

Wannabe did sum it up beautifully . If you're a fraud then so am I because I don't have any debts and now I even have savings. But like you I'm staying here to keep me on the straight and narrow and build up savings pots. Everyone has a little splurge now and again, but that doesn't make them a fraud.

So please keep your diary going .

Delurking to say you are no fraud. I also have no debt but the title of this section of the forum is debt free diaries. I like to read people who re pre and post debt free.

You must do what works for you but do enjoy your posts.

Have a good weekend.
