Excellent!

What is your target for mortgage overpayments for 2009?

benbenandme

My target for 2009 is to reduce the mortgage by 8k Hypno This will include the normal payments, I have already figured out how it breaks down each month so I know how much I need each month from matched betting / aqa / mystery shops etc, will post the boring details on new years eve

how can those details be boring - they are the stuff that us long termers get sooo excited by!!!!!

8k will be fab though! And very achievable :T :T :T

Ds is home and in my card from my ex-in laws was 20.00 cash :beer: I think I'll chuck 10 of it back in my account to cover the present I bought them yesterday and then the other 10 can go in the mortgage pot

Woohoo, that tenner has knocked off January 2028, so we're now into the 2027's :j :j :j Bring it on !!! So thats 7 years I've knocked off so far, 19 to go

Just as I was getting into bed ds woke up and was sick on his bed and in the bathroom I've spent an hour cleaning it up, whacking the washing machine on, calming ds down etc etc .... looks like a day off school tomorrow for both of us :rolleyes: He's finally gone back off to sleep, I'm hoping he can sleep through now

How are you doing Benben? Hope DS is on the mend x

Thanks Spud,ds is fine now, I sent him into school the next day but kinda wish I hadn't as I had a call from the headteacher to say she was excluding him :eek: :eek: Apparently he had taken a t.a's glasses off and spat at her :eek: I asked him to show me what he did and I would call it blowing a raspberry. I'm not excusing what he did at all, but I think there is a difference between the two at 5 yrs old :mad: Anyway, he was allowed to stay on monday and allowed in yesterday but had to stay at home today to miss the xmas party I've had a horrible week and haven't been on here much, but he's been at mums today and has done loads of school work and seems in a good mood tonight so we'll see what tomorrow brings when he goes back :rolleyes: I will say to them that I think it would have been more appropriate at his age to make him go to a separate class when his class were having the party but still keep him in school, I think suspending him is pointless at 5 years old :mad:

Off to ww in a bit, hopefully that might cheer me up a bit :rolleyes:
