Ive done a new snowball for my cc ignoring the loans as the are steady payments .
My car loans finish may so hubby gonna increase his cc payment by 200 we can look forward to cc free in 5/17 which aint that long away .
The bonus is we have a ppi claim in and we are selling our caravan and second car so hopefully clear this amount much sooner than expected .feeling good on this wet and dreary saturday.

Well kids both went out at the same time so hubby and i grabbed some us time and fell asleep after almost got caught by returning teenagers lol funny how life adjusts although I love having the kids here I occasionally find all these adult clothes and dishes a chore ,I then remind myself that soon they will fly and then i will have more time but probably a lot less fun. they are both good kids with different personalities. knocked hubby back about going to pub last night and im glad no hangover on this bright and sunny morning.happy debt busting folks x

elly68 · 9 April 2015 at 4:46PM

Well only one more car payment and thats a debt cleared whoohoo ,we are adding the £200 a month straight to hubbys cc payment tempted to add it to mine but his is higher interest however if he doesnt change payment in june i will be adding it straight to mine .the debt is slowly coming down and the caravan declutter and shine is happening this weekend so at least £5000 to hit the cards with .still awaiting ppi mortgage claim hoping it just turns up while we are not looking for it asim not counting on it.ebays sales are trickling in been useful and i have really just been avoiding the bank and shops so balance is healthier than normal ,I have decided doing stuff more important than having stuff andon that note the declutter continues to splutter on happer easter ev1

Well massive decluttering going on here i have decided that an empty clean home is better than the slow drag that is ebay so i am now on a black bag mission 5 already done . Last weekend i filled the car from the garden and took it all to the tip . I am refusing to buy a single thing especially clothes until my weight is down .
Last car payment this month and husbands wage rise should come in to effect as of june 30th ,I am feeling very positive about my minimilist year and i have started making meals from scratch again and eating fruit vegetables regularly aiming for my 5 a day mainly because i cant get into last years shorts arrgghh.
Happy weekend people and good luck with your endevours x
