    Today I had the letter through about my first mortgage payment, and it will be £485. My usual payments are £340 a month, so as this first one is for June and July I have budgeted £680 (2 x 340 ;)), so this rather nicely leaves me with an extra £195 :D:D I think I might get my hair done this weekend when ds is away as it really needs doing again, but other than that I'm not sure, again!, what to do with it :rolleyes: This is becoming a happy regular occurence ;)
    Mortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000
    Mortgage Overpayments Pot £1263

    This weekend I was going to get my hair cut and coloured, but my normal hairdresser is full and last time I went elsewhere I didn't like it, so I will wait another couple of weeks.

    So, that means that I can think about other plans ... I think I will go to a car boot sale on sat and sunday, and would also like to get down the gym as I havent been for ages :o:o

    I need to sort out my tax credits return too and check when the car mot is due etc. Also I need to get something for fathers day.
    Today has been fairly cheap, I spent about £6 in tescos on bread and milk and bits before ds swimming lesson, but other than that I havent bought anything.

    I'm having my hair cut after school tomorrow - can't wait;) I can't remember the last time I had it cut, it's got so long, layers all grown out, no style at all - I fancy a long bob with layers, we'll see:D

    Ds has gone to his dads a bit earlier this week so it is now officially the weekend and I can crack on with a list ;):D
    • visit 2 car boot sales for ebay bargains
    • list 10 items on ebay
    • housework, housework and more housework :rolleyes:
    • family meeting re. my dad :o
    • tax credits form
    • sort out new contents insurance
    • check when mot is due
    • food shopping
    There seemed a lot more than that that needed doing so am sure I'll add more bits to it as we go along ;)
    Today I've spent £5 on snacks and a fathers day card for ds to give his dad for next weekend.
