    Debt-free and Proud!
    It's snowed heavily here on Berks/Surrey/Hants border. Me and OH tried to make a snowman at about 8am this morning but it's not sticking! So we made a snow koala instead! :rolleyes: :D Very amusing watching the cars trying to get up the hill (although not for them I'm sure).

    I LOVE snow. You wouldn't think I'm 31 in 10 days would you? :p

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I'd happily drag all of the jolly singing idiots on the intensly annoying Halifax advert into the sea and wait for sharks to come and 'get a little extra!'
