Looking to the Future ... My Mortgage Free Dream

yukkibear

I have had to buy a couple of bits for the wedding and used paypal funds so transferred £30 to the mortgage this morning and amended my sig down to £170 from £200 to compensate.

A charity bag has also dropped through the door so that's been filled and ready to go out on thursday morning.

Got my new phone today. Testing how easy it is to update from it. Off to research spending apps

I was feeling really poo last night about one thing or another. Needless to say I wish I wouldn't panic about things so much as this morning it all worked out ok in the end like it normally does.

Nice things that has happened to me today

- DD was an angel ALL day
- My new phone arrived
- More rsvp's came through for the wedding
- I won a competition

I really need to think about the nice things in life more rather than the doom and gloom.

That is a lovely idea to think of positive things that have happened. It makes you feel much better in yourself.

Yes it really does make you realise how lucky you are when you think of the nice things that are happening. Waiting for my new phone to be connected so I can send off my old one for recycling.
Sold some of the jewellery bits last night, so will have pop some more on later I think for sale.

I've amended my signature because we have a prob with our roof that was fixed last year with a 10 year guarrantee, but now the company has gone out of business. So I need to find money for that, hence a lower OP this month now. There's always something isn't there.

My new phone has been connected so my old one has duly been signed up for recycling. I should get £43 from that which will ensure I hit my target of £100 for overpaying this month. Then I'm going to save £100 for savings. Do you see a pattern here lol.

Also booked a spa day this afternoon for me and two friends for my hen day. Can't wait.

I also agree there is always something!

Spa sounds lovely, that will be a really nice hen do.

I have to say I cannot wait for the spa day.

I'm spending money like it's going out of fashion at the moment, but a lot of it is for the wedding. We do however have an MOT to be paid for, a roof leak needs fixing, plus something else up on the roof. I need a new tyre and new wiper blades. I have to pay for pre school this week and I'm sure there's something else I've forgotten about too.

Technically on paper I have managed to save the £100 for the OP which I will send the rest across when my phone has been recycled and the money received. I have to aim for this every month despite a lot else that really needs doing. Still we'll get there.

Car has been MOT'd and only cost us £60 so that's a relief. Still leaves us skint but could have been a lot worse.
