Any money I get in between now and 31st January will go towards February totals and I'm hoping that I can pay this amount each month to be debt free by October!
Dogs went out with the dog walker so I blitzed my living room.
Kitchen and dining room started and I managed to unblock the bottom drawer in my bedside cabinet.
Feel like today has been productive!Aim to pay off £13,000 by December 2024

Haha I know but Bailey is named after the drink which was my Granny's fave and Luna is from Harry Potter - another of my absolute faves!

Great plan to pay that £1081 each month to be debt free by October. That is a big chunk of money but just think what you can do with it once the debt is gone. 9 payments to go.

I'm on season 14 right now. I think the last time I watched up to maybe 15 - I'm bingeing it now then when I am done it's time to make a start on the ton of books I've got to read.
Also I joined a thread on here for people who have a stash of things to use up so we're aiming to use up before we buy more.

Had a busy day today workwise and managed to get a lot done.
I've got a gas bill to pay and the car is getting an MOT on Wednesday so just waiting to see what the damage will be from that.
Once that's all sorted I'll be able to see where I am funds wise and start allocating towards February debt payments.Debt Free - 4th June 20251 -

So she's dropped off for her MOT - straight away a fail cos I told the mechanic that the boot won't open.
Hopefully get it back today or tomorrow - if not I'm going to struggle with my dog walks Friday and over the weekend but we'll cross that bridge if and when we get to it!
Just about to have my first coffee of the day - been a mad rush about this morning.Debt Free - 4th June 20251
