Well I am still not making any overpayment until the new mortgage comes through, just incase I end up having to make 2 insurance and mortgage payments in one calendar month. The mortgage has been agreed and we are just waiting on solicitors.
I have been assured I wont pay twice on one month, but the last thing I want to happen is to go overdrawn.
I am going into November with £181.00 spare in the joint account so if I dont have to make 2 payments in one month, I will split this 3 ways between mortgage, bathroom savings and holiday savings.
I got the shopping for £17 under budget yesterday

Have you tried Just Dance on the Wii? I swear its a workout as you jump around so much. I've got to get back into doing step on the Wii whilst watching my shows - kills two birds with one stone.Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck

Havent got Just Dance, I use EA Active Workouts and Wi Fit Plus. The EA Active is fab as it sets ups 30-40 minute workouts for you that burn 100-160 calories. My diet is taking an overhaul too. I have had porridge and berries for BF instead of the usual lemon curd on toast. I have upped the swimming from 2x a week to 3 x
I just hope I stick to it!!!2014 = New Year, New Me0 -
