Afternoon all.
Hope you are all having a lovely long weekend, I feel like all I have done is eat n drink! No change there then:p
I've done the maths for 1st June, things are looking good, total owed now is £14,815.02:j
I have been busy still selling things, although I am slowly running out there is still money to be made. Mystery Shopping is at a vertual stand still for me as I just don't have time at the moment.

Under 15k, it's getting very manageable now - so congrats.
It's sad to say but since I hit my target of being MFW, I've barely touched this website ! It has certainly served its purpose in getting me focussed and overpaid.Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved

Ops sorry all, I am still alive! Been busy selling stuff on f/book and looking after the doggies.
One of the dogs had a large hematoma on his ear and has had to have a op to remove it. He then manage to get an infection in it....just over £200 later and he seems to be recoving ok:cool:. Hopefully we should get just over half of that back through the insurance, but you never know how good your policy is until you claim.
It is my rather larger birthday this month:eek: Unless we win the lottery we are not going to pay of the mortgage in time for the original target, but if hubby hadn't bought his blooming 4x4 we would have smashed it :rotfl:
Hope you are all well.

Guilty as charged................AWOL
I forgot to do Julys maths
But Augusts don't look to bad...drum roll please....
Our mortgage minus out savings currently stands at £11,674.54.
With this in mind I have asked hubby what he thinks about me dropping another day at work...bringing me down to 3 days, he has agreed :j I love being at home with the dogs:o
Due to work commitments I won't actually be dropping hours until December..must remember to actually tell work:cool::rotfl:
