Brilliant - I am delighted for you. You have worked so hard and you deserve a real celebration. Hurrah!!!!!!!!!

earthgirl

Thanks for all the Congratulations. I can't stop smiling! You have to celebrate these little milestones don't you.
We have been out for lunch to celebrate, but just walked to the local cafe, which was nice.

I've posted on the 'mortgage free roll of honour' which was good - I enjoyed reading all the pearls of wisdom!!

On our walk to the cafe oh and I have decided that we don't really want much to change, we would like a nice holiday next year, and we are going to try to save another £300,000 for our next house, as we will probably move, either due to OH expanding his business or getting into a good secondary school catchment area. We have seen houses between £500,000 - £600,000 in the area we'd like to be for earthlets school that are just wonderful with tennis courts or pools and plenty of land (obviously prices will rise but you have to have something to aim for!)

Thanks for all of your help and support throughout this journey, and for reading my tedious diary full of to do lists!
In particular courgette, twinklie and chamichelle, and more recently sssquirrel and museumworker, thank you!!

twinklie

Awwww bless you. I feel all special now getting a mention! You've properly cheered me up with that on TOP of your excellent news! :j Wow....you don't set yourselves tough goals do you! Save £300'000...why not! :rotfl: Like you say if you don't aim for it - it's not going to happen.

Now if only I could make sure our finances were ok enough to buy this house I want. Ha ha

Well done!!!
what a fab achievement and in such a short period of time just amazing!!
300K and a house with swimming pool/tennis courts sounds like a great next challenge! :rotfl:

Off to read your diary from the start to see how you did it!

I know, I feel all special too! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Great next challenge Earthy but how about challenging yourself to chill out for a couple of months and enjoy what you've achieved

Told DH and he was like 'okay, cool'. I then said 'no, Earthgirl, the one who gave me the swimming costume and we sent the CDs to' and his reaction was :eek::T:j:beer:

You will still post though, won't you? I'd really miss you if you weren't here anymore :D
