    Day 3 of shred is done, bath is done and am in bed trying to persuade ds to go to sleep :o I had quite a good evening tonight, the kitchen is spotless and the floor has been cleaned, the washing pile is almost empty, the ironing pile only has two bits in it, the rest of the flat is 90% tidy and hoovered too :) I'm trying to stay on top of it so its not a weekend full of cleaning and tidying again. Also, may be meeting up again with coffee guy ;) We've still been chatting lots and are going to meet up again although he's made it clear he's happy with his new female friend, if I get a decent mate out of it then thats a good thing too :D

    £9 profit from a matched bet tonight :beer: Am working away now on several smaller goals on my way to the yearly target ... firstly I want to get to £2k in the mortgage pot, then I want to get to sub 30k mortgage balance, then £2925 which will be half way to the yearly target, then £3k etc ... another one I want to get to is the new mortgage free date bring June 2019 ... still quite a way off from that one yet, but thats a biggie for me because thats the date I was originally aiming for when I first started off on the mortgage free challenge, as thats the date when ds will leave school :D

    Thankyou Funnyflipp :) So today was another average day at school, a nsd so far too. We are off to WW later, won't be a good one today, the scales are saying I've put on 2lbs this week so not looking forward to the official verdict, but onwards and upwards :o:o

    Council tax bill has arrived today, its actually not too bad, has only gone up £2 per month on last year, was expecting it to be much worse ;)
    Nothing much else to add, will report back later :)
