Hello, all! Loving the sparkles here this morning.
Does anyone else spend time looking at property listings for places you hope to live but couldnt possibly for a few years yet? I've been stalking the NYC property market (near where I grew up) for a few weeks now and am trying to use it as motivation rather than just seeing the crushing expense.
Today I:- will walk to work
- lunch at work from home
- watch TV on iplayer
- dinner at a friends after work
- email dad about visit
- talk to mum on skype rather than by phone
- keep chasing contract at work (!!!!)
- work hard as loads on
- catch up on volunteer stuff
Hope everybody has a good one.Mortgage free by 30:eek:: £28,000/£100,000Debt free as of 1 October, 2010
