Thank you all - I don't think anyone in 'real life' would understand what it means to me to have opened a regular saver and to have started that but it was a really big thing for me and I know you all got that. Thank you.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

Course sales exceeded my expectations. I delivered the first lecture today which was scary and made worse by the fact that I had edited my slides and uploaded the wrong version. Still I got there. It is done and i will revise the second set of slides for next week earlier than the day before!
I am becoming a lot clearer about what I want and how to get there and how I could make that a reality and I am seeing possibilities in the world again. Feeling happyMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

Congrats Watty!
Honestly, the number of times I've gone to present and realised that I have the wrong slides (or I'm actually delivering a different session than the one I thought I was doing), is too high to even remember. If you know your stuff it doesn't generally matter too much7 -
