Pay off mortgage and start having fun!

£193.89 spent from food budget is far (£1000 oct1st -dec31st budget) Not bad, but other spending so far this month has been high after buying ds2 a winter coat from m and s (needed it now not when my vouchers arrive!) I also bought a sparkly top from next for me (£18) and have got petrol and a couple of other bits, total spend so far about £480 :eek: I think budget left for the month is now £208 and of that £139 should be for food.

Predicted balance at the end of the year for the mortgage is £51,605, predicated balance for Dec 2017 is £21,827, I've been looking at the overpayment spreadsheet as I have a massive urge to spend money at the moment and need to put myself off

Yuk, hangover (again!) I was totally bored yesterday home alone, then mum popped round to drop something off about 5pm and said come over for a drink , I ended up staying all evening and having a takeaway curry and a shed load of wine. dhs declined to join us as he was watching a film with Ds2 at home, but did collect me later what a star

:xmastree: Christmas vibes at home today, the fruit is in to soak (should have done it yesterday but forgot) I shall be cooking the cake later, there is nothing in the world that smells as good as Xmas cake baking. Also need to gather up all the advent calendar gifts for my aunts calendar, she is having it as part of her birthday present in a couple of weeks. Also have gammon in the small sc, leek and potato soup in the large one and bread in the bm, not bad after a wine overload!

Will be seeing inferno later at the cinema , looking forward to that

I enjoyed inferno even though ds 2 said it was rubbish and it had dodgy reviews, 8/10

Good news today Dd has won two more awards from her old college :T she won £250 a couple of years ago and has won the same award again and another £250 plus an extra one for exceptional work doing an extra a level £50, what a little star

Ds2 is having a bad day, he is a massive fan of red dwarf and his best friend met one of the actors today at a bike race meet (Danny John jules) he spent the day chatting with the actor and his son, ds2 is now in for a lifetime of ribbing as he wasn't there and is very jealous :rotfl:
