Full of admiration

Hi

I only occasionally pop onto this board, but i would just like to say how much i am heartily impressed by the determination and perserverance of you guys.

It must be such a tough situation to be in and i can only imagine the misery debt causes.

I have seen the inspirational support offered by and to each other and wish each and every one of you a bright future.

You desreve it.

A Happy and prosperous future to all of you.

    Thank you for your lovely post.

    I don't know where I would be without this board. Being with other people in the same situation and wanting to get out of debt like me does make this hard journey so much easier.

    It's nice not to be judged as others who do not understand can.

    The only people who judge have no idea of the misery debt creates.

    Once again all of you guys are on this board to tackle your problems,and for that you have my admiration.

    Go for it 2008 WILL BE BETTER.

    Huggs Annie.

    Annie thank you so much. It's really nice to have support from non DFWers. I too have been judged and called stupid on other boards because of my signature so I normally hide it now when I stray from DFW. Thanks again- we really appreciate it.
