Glad you are feeling a bit better, I don't think these cold dark days help! It's great that you'll be able to really smash it

Just popping in to say I read your diary and have been amazed by all that you are doing to tackle this. The panic post really spoke to how I feel quite often at the moment, no one knows the extent of my mess either. Well done, keep going, you have got this.Happiness is wanting what you have...1

Hi all
I haven't posted for so long, but I wanted to check in to say I DID IT! I've managed to get everything paid off, so now there is just one shared 0% interest free card that we need to pay off between us - just over £1k.
Feel so relieved to have this part of my life done with! Now what should be my next challenge? Become a millionaire maybe?!1 -
Huge congratulations 🥳
My advice would be to savour the moment and then discuss with your significant other what your next goal is. As you are already mortgage free, this might be working towards retirement plans, holidays or lifestyle changes that you feel you haven’t been able to enjoy as much as you would like due to debt repayments.

Thank you - I have started a new diary working towards retirement, I'd love you to all follow it!
